Ladies and Gentleman,
Let me introduce you the first unconventional project from my country... LVL-1 and LVL-2 (Light Training Aircraft) were developed for Slovak Air Force from 1979 at Military Aviation University in Košice. The head of the project was Ing. Radomir Orlita. LVL-1 had compared to LVL-2 much conventional tail surfaces and less powerful engine. LVL-2 was all-metal light airplane for basic pilot training and limited air fire support. Sized down (1:10) mockup was built, but project ended after 10 years due to a lack of money and turbulent political situation.
Some specifications of LVL-2:
Engine: M-337 A/V 500S with push propeller
Landing gear: triangular, main wheels were fixed
Wingspan: 7,3 m
Max. take off weight: 850 kg
Max. speed: 310 km/h
Cruise speed: 285 km/h
Minimal speed without flaps: 110 km/h
Climb speed after take-off: 9 m/s
Take off distance (in grass): 156 m
