The L-39 Albatros is a low-wing, high-performance jet aircraft that
doubles as a trainer and light attack aircraft. The Albatros was
developed in Czechoslovakia in the 1960s to replace older L-29 jet
trainers. Powered by an Ivchenko AI-25TL turbofan engine, the L-39 has a
top speed of Mach 0.80, a service ceiling of 11,000 m (36,100 feet),
and can pull up to 8 G. Although primarily used as a trainer and light
attack aircraft, the L-39 has also become popular with several aerial
acrobatics demonstration teams.
Being a trainer aircraft, the L-39C has a tandem cockpit with the
student in front and the instructor in the back. The instructor has
several controls to mimic system failures to test the student. The L-39C
also has two underwing pylons for bombs, rockets and close range
air-to-air missiles. For decades, the L-39 was used by nations around
the world to train pilots that later went on to fly aircraft like the
MiG-29 and Su-27.
A later evolution of the L-39 was the L-39ZA light attack aircraft. The
ZA adds two additional weapon pylons and a center pylon to mount a gun
pod. The ZA has proved a popular choice for low-intensity conflicts. The
L-39ZA will be available later during the Open Beta.
