Designed as a successor to the FMA Pulqui II, the Pulqui III would have featured more innovative design standards. Sadly, while the Argentinian government didn't pursue the aircraft, the rights to build itvwere purchased by Lycernia Corps. (a small start-up at the time) in 1991. The aircraft, now known as the AE-3, would see service in every major Lycernian war, and still serves in reserve groups today. The camouflage depicted here is a concept of what it could have looked like in Argentinian service.
