Improved 1500B model with uprated engines, nose mounted Crinkston 50mm autocannon, and flattened primary wings. It mounts 6 hardpoints instead of 2, as found on the 1500A and 1500B variants. Originally intended as a proof of concept by the team behind the 1500 Series jets that the airframe was viable even despite shortcomings, it found to be on par with what was designed to replace the 1500 series, the 1650s. It serves as an interceptor and light CAS platform, as well as serving carrier operations.
