Afghan Air Force A-29 Super Tucanos and MD 530F Cayuse Warrior Helicopters in action. U.S. Service members from the Train, Advise, Assist, Command-Air (TAAC-Air) fly Afghan Air Force A-29 Super Tucanos & MD 530F Cayuse Warrior Helicopters to a range in Afghanistan to demonstrate the aircraft's close air support ability in support of Operation Resolute Support.
The A-29 Super Tucano is a turboprop aircraft designed for light attack, counter insurgency, close air support, aerial reconnaissance missions in low threat environments, as well as providing pilot training. Designed to operate in high temperature and humidity conditions in extremely rugged terrain, the Super Tucano is highly maneuverable, has a low heat signature, incorporates fourth generation avionics and weapons system to deliver precision guided munitions.
The MD 530F Cayuse Warrior is an armed variant of the OH-6 Cayuse light observation helicopter built by MD Helicopters. The multipurpose armed helicopter enhances scout attack, armed escort and close air attack capabilities of the Afghan Air Force.
The Afghan Air Force deployed MD 530F helicopters in the Rotary Wing Flight Training Programme since 2011. The programme was conducted by the US Army Security Assistance Training Management Organization in Shindand.
