L-39MS
The Aero
L-39MS Super Albatros is a second generation military trainer aircraft developed from the firm's earlier L-39. Compared to its predecessor, it featured a strengthened fuselage, longer nose, a vastly updated cockpit, and a more powerful (21.6 kN (4,850 lbf)) Lotarev DV-2 engine, allowing operation at higher weights and speeds (max speed 872 km/h (542 mph)).[9]
First flight on 30 September 1996. It was later designated as the Aero L-59 .
You do know that, but most readers here may confuse that with the L-39s from Warsaw Pact times.
