In this video, we will try to answer the question: what is the point of using a propeller-driven attack aircraft with a WWII design in a modern world filled with super-advanced combat aircraft. Super Tucano will show and tell us everything!The Embraer EMB 314, also known as A-29 Super Tucano, is a light turboprop combat aircraft developed by the Brazilian Embraer company in the early 2000s. The aircraft is designed to patrol extended territories, intercept light aircraft and helicopters, and provide air support for local military operations. The aircraft is equipped with modern military equipment and can use both machine guns and cannons, as well as air-to-air and air-to-ground missiles.Despite its archaic design and rather modest performance, the Super Tucano has a serious advantage over full-fledged jet fighters and attack aircraft – it is much simpler and cheaper, both in purchase and in operation. It cannot be used in a full-scale war, facing a full-fledged army, but demonstrates optimal parameters in confronting local forces: criminal organizations and armed groups. This makes it an indispensable tool in the parks of the Air Forces of many countries.

A WW2-style attack aircraft? In the 21st century?
