Aero Vodochody has presented the first in-series production L-39NG in the colours of the Vietnam People's Air Force (VPAF).

The company said on 7 August that the first of the series production aircraft “will soon be heading to its new owner”. In a photograph of the aircraft following its exit from the company paint shop, Aero said the aircraft was being prepared “to be handed over to the customer”.

Vietnam ordered 12 L-39NG aircraft in February 2021. At the time, it was announced that the aircraft would be delivered from 2023 to 2024. The contract includes the training of pilots, instructors, ground crew, and mechanics. The supply of aircraft spare parts, as well as equipment for ground-based training, logistics support, or specialised airport systems, is also included, according to Janes data.

Janes assesses that the VPAF should receive the initial batch of aircraft by the end of 2023.
