Northrop Corporation T-38 Talon

The Northrop T-38 Talon is a twinjet supersonic jet training aircraft. The T-38 Talon was derived from an initial project, with the designation N-156. This development came about following a series of discussions with General Electric Aviation, who have proposed a light but powerful engine to be utilised for future aircrafts. An subsequent agreement has been made to create a lightweight fighter, installed with General Electric J85 engines. The aircraft was modified in the mid-1950s, for a trainer requirement issued by the U.S. Air Force, and eventually receiving the T-38 Talon designation. The Talon was the world’s first supersonic trainer remaining in production and service to this day.

Priceless Aviation is pleased to offer a great range of ground power and support equipment for this aircraft, including tugs, ground power units, start power units, aviation tools, and more, which are perfectly suited to the requirements of the Northrop T-38 Talon aircraft.

This includes the popular RBI9400T mechanic hand trolley case complete with 161 BAHCO tools, the 717 tug, the RBSC100 continuous power unit, which is ideal for diagnostic work, pre-flight checks or for continuous powering of equipment during operations, without draining the onboard aircraft batteries and the RB75A for starting the aircraft, helping to avoid hot starts. We also offer a combination of start and continuous power in one unit for the Northrop T-38 Talon aircrafts in our TC3000 range.
