Shenyang FT-6: A Supersonic Training Legacy

The Shenyang FT-6 Trainer is a remarkable piece in the history of aviation, designed to train pilots of supersonic aircraft during the 1970s. Based on the F-6 fighter, which itself was a Chinese iteration of the MiG-19, this trainer was developed to meet the People's Liberation Army Air Force's need for a supersonic trainer. The FT-6 took its maiden flight in November 1970 and became an essential part of pilot training until production ceased in 1986.

This 1/32 scale model kit from Trumpeter offers a detailed representation of the FT-6, providing enthusiasts with an opportunity to explore the design and engineering of this significant aircraft. The kit emphasizes historical accuracy and scale precision, making it a valuable addition to any military aircraft collection.
