I dunno. I thought the Tucano was a cool plane even when I was a kid. Maybe it just looks cool. But it's also like, if jets had never been invented, what would the state of the art warplane look like? This.

The T-6 is a better aircraft in most ways, but the Super Taco gets press because it's a symbol of Brazilian national pride.
Justin Myers
I like it because of how ridiculously expensive it is for what it does

The differences between a turboprop and a trubojet aren't huge. They are turbine engines, just a different kind.
Chase Howard
what, we usually make jokes about our country not being able to develop a jet and only ww2 planes

The Super Tucano is a dedicated light attack aircraft. Not a trainer. That would be the Tucano.
Jason Brooks
Tucan'tno is a shit plane for poor people.

Because it's brazillians, and brazillians are naturally proud of their country's thing. And there's proportionally lots of brazillian posters. If there were lots of Saffa posters you'd have the ratel IFV and the G6 SPG being memed all the time. It's not fucking rocket science dude.

It’s been effective policing South American airspace from trafficking. There’s a vid on YouTube of some spooks directing a tucano to shoot down a smugglers plane.
F35 tactitards get pretty upset when other planes are capable of taking out targets

>and brazillians are naturally proud of their country's thing Quite the contrary, Brazilians are one of the most self-hating, cultural cringe groups out there
