Description
The Hawker Beechcraft T-6 Texan II is a single-turboprop engine, tandem two-seat primary trainer designed to train students in basic flying skills common to US Air Force (USAF) and US Navy pilots. The T-6 Texan II derived from the Raytheon's Beech/Pilatus PC-9 Mk II turboprop trainer. The United States Joint Services awarded the Joint Primary Aircraft Training System (JPATS) contract to Raytheon (now Hawker Beechcraft Corporation) in 1996. The T-6A Texan II achieved initial operational capability as a training system in 2001.
