Design and development

[edit]

The T-1A Jayhawk is a medium-range, twin-engine jet trainer used in the advanced phase of Air ForceJoint Specialized Undergraduate Pilot Training for students selected to fly strategic/tactical airlift or tanker aircraft. It is used also for training Air ForceCombat Systems Officers in high and low level flight procedures during the advanced phase of training. It also augmented or served in lieu of theT-39 Sabreliner in the Intermediate phase ofUS Navy/Marine Corps StudentNaval Flight Officer training until the joint Air Force-Navy/Marine Corps training pipeline split in 2010 and now remains solely in operation with the U.S. Air Force, leaving the Navy with the Sabreliner pending its eventual replacement. The T-1 Jayhawk shares the same letter and number as the long retiredT-1 SeaStar under the1962 United States Tri-Service aircraft designation system.

The swept-wing T-1A is a military version of theBeechjet/Hawker 400A. It has cockpit seating for an instructor and two students and is powered by twin turbofan engines capable of an operating speed of Mach .78. The T-1A differs from its commercial counterpart with structural enhancements that provide for a large number of landings per flight hour, increasedbird strike resistance and an additional fuselage fuel tank. A total of 180 T-1 trainers were delivered between 1992 and 1997.

The first T-1A was delivered toReese Air Force Base, Texas, in January 1992, and student training began in 1993.

Another military variant is theJapan Air Self-Defense Force T-400 (400T) trainer, which shares the sametype certificate as the T-1A.^[2]
