Surely they will be responding soon and he will post their 'impartial analysis' on why the Tucano is a superplane and AT-6 is a POS.
Embrear spent $50,000 to fly a couple of Super Tucanos to flight tests. Hawker-Beech spent 7 figures to do the exact same thing.
As far as being American made the AT-6 is a licensed Swiss product, manufactured in the Kansas, with a Canadian EO/IR camera. The Tucano is Brazilian manufactured, Florida assembled, with an Oregon EO/IR camera.
I am surprised nobody raised a bigger stink over the Army LUH contract. A much bigger contract which began with a large number of aircraft being manufactured in Europe and assembled in the U.S.
