Design and development


The existence of the B-350 was first made public during the 2021 Dubai Airshow, where a full-scale mock-up of the aircraft was unveiled.[1][2] The aircraft is a two-seat design to be powered by a single Pratt & Whitney Canada PW127 turboprop engine. Suspended armament will be carried on twelve underwing hardpoints.[1] The aircraft's retractable tricycle landing gear will be built by the Czech company Charvát AXL.[3]

Due to its large size compared to similar aircraft, comparisons have been drawn between the B-350 and the Douglas A-1 Skyraider.[1][3]
