 Short Tucano - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
It is an adaptation of the EMBRAER Tucano, the principle alteration being the use of a Garrett turboprop powerplant over the standard Pratt and Whitney engine.
The Tucano was selected in 1985 as a replacement for the RAF's previous basic flying trainer aircraft, the Jet Provost.
The decision to replace the engine used in the standard EMBRAER model with the Garrett engine caused a number of problems which delayed the introduction of the aircraft, so that it was 1989 by the time it came into service.

The Tucano was selected in 1985 to replace the RAF's Jet Provost basic flying training aircraft which had been in service since 1955.
Some seventy percent cheaper to operate than the Jet Provost, the Tucano used by the RAF differs from the version originally developed by Embraer of Brazil and used by many air forces across the globe.
The introduction of the Tucano allowed the RAF to streamline its basic flying training syllabus somewhat as the aircraft offered twice the range and endurance of the Jet Provost, allowing two sorties to be flown before the aircraft required to be refuelled.

The Tucano-1 body did not appear to have a favourable diamond size distribution, but investors were in a buying mood nevertheless, as the company's shares jumped 14 cents on the news, hitting an intraday high of 64 cents.
Most of the Tucano diamonds were tiny, falling through a 0.106-millimetre screen, which is the minimum cut-off used by many explorers.
Cookenboo said that it was a good sign for the project that the Tucano-1 target was a kimberlite, and the fact that it kicked out some good microdiamond tallies added encouragement for other targets in the area.

 Masterkit 1/72 Embraer T-37 Tucano
First flown ion 16 August 1980 the initial Tucano of some 133 for Brazil was delivered to the Air Force Academy near Sao Paulo in September 1983 for service with the delegation T-37.
The resulting much modified Shorts Tucano was produced under license in the Northern Ireland city of Belfast by Shorts, producing 130 for the RAF.
Given that the Shorts Tucano is partially based upon the Embraer Super Tucano, it would have been fantastic if one was available on the market to allow the modeller (me in this case!) to have the whole Tucano family on display.

A história do EMB 312 Tucano, considerado o "best-seller" da Empresa Brasileira de Aeronáutica (EMBRAER), tem sua origem na necessidade de formação de pilotos com um grau de adestramento elevado, tendo em vista a evolução dos aviões de combate.
Ao desenvolver o Tucano a EMBRAER não levou em consideração apenas os requisitos da FAB; estudou ainda as solicitações de clientes em potencial, tornando o T-27 uma aeronave também de apoio tático e ataque, apta a cumprir missões de guerra de baixa intensidade.
O Tucano passou a ser entregue em série em 1983, assumindo logo a liderança de vendas, com um grande sucesso internacional.
