Founded in 1927 and located in C rdoba for most of its existence it was known as F brica Militar de Aviones (FM a) until its privatisation in the 1990s when it became part of Lockheed Martin. In 2009, it was renationalised and the company is now once again wholly owned by the Argentine government. Initially the factory produced aircraft built under licence from companies such as Avro but it is best known for making the first jet fighter aircraft in Latin America: the Pulqui I (1947) and the Pulqui II (1950) under the director of engineers Emile Dewoitine and Kurt Tank respectively. The post World War Two era was a particularly interesting one at the F Ade A with creative and innovative designers such as Reimar H Orten being involved with the business. This book is a history of the company and the aircraft it produced from the 1920s to the present day. It covers all the aircraft that were produced by the company both those built under licence and original designs. It also examines the many projects and prototypes which were developed over the years. For all those with an interest in some of the less well - known aspects of aviation history this book will be a revelation.\u003cbr\u003e\nTitle: Wings Of Argentina Argentina's Aircraft Industry Since 1927\u003cbr\u003e\nAuthor(s): Rivas Santiago (Author)\u003cbr\u003e\nPublisher: Hikoki Publications\u003cbr\u003e\nBarcode: 9781902109671\u003cbr\u003e\nPages: 384 Pages, Approx. 350 Images\u003cbr\u003e\nPublication Date: 7\/10\/2025\u003cbr\u003e\nCategory: Aircraft: General Interest","brand":"Rivas Santiago (Author)","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51680359711025,"sku":"IN-G-9781902109671","price":36.06,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0644\/6759\/9594\/files\/9781902109671.jpg?v=1753712166","url":"https:\/\/bookdelivered.com\/products\/9781902109671-wings-of-argentina-argentinas-aircraft-industry-since-1927","provider":"Book Delivered","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
