Fouga Magister fighter jet reactor cover

The Fouga CM. 170 Magister is a subsonic two-seater jet aircraft designed in France in the early 1950s by the aviation department of Établissements Fouga & Cie. Recognizable by its V-shaped rear tail, nearly a thousand units were manufactured in France and licensed in West Germany, Israel and Finland. It has been put into service by around twenty countries. It was designed quickly and, something rare at the time, with very few differences between the prototype and the production model.

The world's first jet training aircraft, the Fouga Magister was selected by NATO in 1954 as the aircraft most suited to learning from beginning to advanced. The Magister was also used in close air support, notably during the Six Day War. Thanks to its acrobatic capabilities, the Fouga Magister was adopted as an aerobatic aircraft for several acrobatic patrols, including the Patrouille de France which used it for 16 years (from 1964 to 1980) .
