KEY INTELLIGENCE TAKEAWAYS & SUMMARY
- The US Air Force has completely removed three A-29 Super Tucano aircraft, which were evaluated within the Test Pilot School at Edwards Air Force Base, from its inventory.
- It was announced that the aircraft will be withdrawn from flight missions and transferred to a long-term storage contract due to changing operational requirements and failure to meet testing criteria.
- While platforms produced in partnership with Embraer and SNC are marketed with future asymmetric warfare and drone-hunter concepts, this decision in the US may increase pressure on the manufacturer's production line.
