LIPNUR developed and manufactured the Super Kunang - also known as the Super Kunang 35 - in the 1960s. Powered by a Volkswagen air-cooled engine and seating only one person, it was used as a light sports plane. Kunang-Kunang means 'Firefly' in Indonesian. The prototype Super Kunang I (X-05) first flew on 25 October 1963. In production, it was known as the Super Kunang 35. Both it and a 2-seat variant were exhibited at the National Research Exhibition in Jakarta (1-13 July 1965).
