Description:

Today I'm posting the Fouga C.M.170 Magister, I decided to participate in @Gabriel747's challenge because I was out of ideas. To activate the smoke just activate the AG1,The plane still has some errors, I tried to update the XML but it's not working. The painting was not completely the same as the Esqudrilha but it was fine. I hope you like the aircraft. Have a good day!


Wikipedia:

In 1948, development commenced at Fouga on a new primary trainer aircraft design that harnessed newly developed jet propulsion technology. The initial design was evaluated by the French Air Force (Armée de l'Air, AdA) and, in response to its determination that the aircraft lacked sufficient power for its requirements, was enlarged and adopted a pair of Turbomeca Marboré turbojet engines.
First flying on 23 July 1952, the first production order for the type was received on 13 January 1954. In addition, the related CM.175 Zéphyr was a carrier-capable version developed and produced for the French Navy.
While primarily operated as a trainer aircraft, the Magister was also frequently used in combat as a close air support platform by various operators. In the latter capacity, it saw action during the Six-Day War, the Salvadoran Civil War, the Western Sahara War, and the Congo Crisis. The Magister was also chosen by many aerobatics display team including the Patrouille de France (from 1964 to 1980). In French service, the Magister was eventually replaced by the Dassault/Dornier Alpha Jet. After its retirement by the French Air Force, Magisters were purchased by several private-owner pilots in the US and have since been operated in the experimental category.


In Brazil:

The Brazilian Air Force acquired seven examples designated T-24 to equip the Esquadrilha da Fumaça in 1968. The Fouga Magister was used for a short time, since its autonomy was very low, inadequate to the continental dimensions of Brazil, as well as for not operating on rustic landing strips, which were the majority among those existing at the time.

    @PlaneFX6 olha o avião tá muito bonito mas a performance de vôo é bem ruim
    Eu sei o porque
    Você não tirou a drag scale e mass scale daquelas peças que ficam nas asas
    É isso que tá atrapalhando a performance
    Mas não se preocupe vou consertar isso e vou considerar a versão consertada
