The T-38 Talon is a twin-engine supersonic jet trainer developed by Northrop and introduced in 1961. It is renowned for its sleek, aerodynamic design, featuring a delta-wing configuration and a low fuselage that enhance its performance and maneuverability. The T-38 is used primarily for advanced pilot training, including air combat tactics and formation flying. Its high-speed capabilities and agility make it an ideal platform for preparing pilots for more complex fighter aircraft. The Talon's reliability and efficiency have led to its extensive use by the U.S. Air Force and various international air forces, solidifying its place as a key training asset.
