T-6 Texan II Blueprint T-Shirt by Squadron Posters!

The T-6A is used by the United States Air Force for basic pilot training and combat systems officer training, the United States Navy for primary and intermediate naval flight officer training for the United States Navy and United States Marine Corps, and by the Royal Canadian Air Force (CT-156 Harvard II designation), Greek Air Force, Israeli Air Force (with the “Efroni” nickname), and Iraqi Air Force for basic flight training. The T-6B is used by the US Navy for primary naval aviator training Navy, Marine Corps, and Coast Guard. The T-6C is used for training by the Mexican Air Force, Royal Air Force, Royal Moroccan Air Force, and Royal New Zealand Air Force.

The Model 3000/T-6 is a low-wing, cantilever monoplane with enclosed tandem seating. It is powered by a single Pratt and Whitney Canada PT6A-68 turboprop engine in tractor configuration with an aluminum, 97-inch (8.1 ft; 2.5 m), four-blade, constant-speed, variable pitch, non-reversing, feathering propeller assembly and has retractable tricycle landing gear. The aircraft is fitted with Martin-Baker Mark 16 ejection seats and a canopy-fracturing system. The T-6 is a development of the Pilatus PC-9, modified by Beechcraft to enter the Joint Primary Aircraft Training System (JPATS) competition in the 1990s. A similar arrangement between Pilatus and British Aerospace had also been in place for a Royal Air Force competition in the 1980s, although that competition selected the Short Tucano. The aircraft was designated under the 1962 United States Tri-Service aircraft designation system and named for the decades-earlier T-6 Texan.
