The SIAI-Marchetti S211 is powered by a Pratt and Whitney JT15D-4C turbofan providing a top speed of 740 kmh and a range of 550 km depending upon load. It carries up to 660 kg of disposable stores on four hard points, two under each wing. The S211 was designed to fill a niche at the bottom end of the jet-powered basic trainer market, and first flew in April 1981, entering military service in 1984. Research SIAI-Marchetti S211
