Yesterday (July 6), Taiwan Province displayed three self-developed and constructed "Yongying" higher education aircraft at the Zhihang Base, during which static display and dynamic flight were carried out respectively. According to Taiwan Province, the Eagle is another new fighter jet put into mass production after the IDF.
As a concrete product of the Taiwan authorities' so-called "national machine and national ship" strategy, the Taiwan military still attaches great importance to this high education machine. According to the Taiwan military's plan, they intend to serve at least 66 "Yongying" high education aircraft by 2026 and let them replace the F-5 fighter jets and AT-3 high education aircraft currently used by the Taiwan military.
Although the "Yongying" is only a type of high-education aircraft, it is touted by the Taiwan military as "god-like", not only saying that the "Yongying" that uses a large number of composite materials is to specially train the pilots of the fifth-generation fighters, but also can carry live ammunition against the PLA in wartime; Some people ridiculed this: The so-called "new fighter" of the Taiwan military is actually a "low-end version of the IDF," and the IDF itself is a light fighter with limited offensive capabilities.
