The Mitsubishi T-2 was chosen by the Technical Research and Development Institute (TRDI) of the Japan Defense Agency to test new technology. The aircraft selected was the third T-2 manufactured; serial 29-5103 c/n 003. It would be the test bed for the CCV (Control Configuration Vehicle) studies. Fixed canards were mounted on the intakes just in front of the wings with a movable canard under the fuselage. The objective was to study airflow to see if such a configuration could improve maneuverability.
Designed to replace the T-33 as an advanced supersonic trainer, the T-2 was first flown in 1971. © Copyright 2003-2025 The Flying Mule, Inc.
