Its been a long while since i last posted here. Well i missed this place... I would like some input from you guys here who are actual pilots in the military that you worked for. Do you consider the FA-50 Fighting Eagle aircraft by Korean Aerospace Industries a LIGHT MULTIROLE FIGHTER? Or just a LIGHT COMBAT AIRCRAFT? I have been In A discussion with someone that claims the KAI FA-50 since it was based off a Trainer (KAI T-50) that has Fighter capability(tip raiks for any AIM-9/PYTHON) and Ground strike capability(PGMs, AGM65 capability), though limited compared to other fighter slightly bigger than it, Can not be termed as a "Fighter" Would that be even correct guys? Or should it be considered as a Light Fighter, since it has limited capacity to kill other planes? Thanks for all your input...

Philippine FA-50PH made its Maiden Flight!
gamespinas29 posted a topic in Military and General Aviation
Hi there guys! As a follow up to my old SF2 post. In South Korea, the South Korean Designed FA-50PH(built specifically for the Philippines)made its maiden flight last June 19! Finally, after over a decade of having no fighters, we are finally going to get ourselves some air defense! Even if the FA-50 wont arrive to the country until December, I'm already so hyped about it. Oh...so in compensation for this historical event, I'm gonna fill this topic with the history of Philippine Interceptors.- 7 replies
