The AMX was a groundbreaking international ground-attack aircraft developed through an unprecedented Italian-Brazilian partnership to replace aging strike fighters in both nations. First flown in 1984, it was a single-engine, low-wing monoplane powered by a Rolls-Royce Spey 807 turbofan, with variants accommodating one or two crew members. Measuring over 44 feet in length with a 29-foot wingspan, the AMX demonstrated exceptional survivability through redundant systems design. The aircraft was manufactured by AMX International, a joint venture between Aeritalia, Aermacchi, and Embraer.
