Air Tractor: de fumigador agrícola a avión de combate

The Air Tractor is known worldwide as one of the most robust and efficient agricultural aircraft ever built. However, its history extends far beyond crop dusting. In this Aeropedia video, we explore the complete evolution of the Air Tractor family, from the early agricultural models like the AT-300 and AT-500, through its adaptation to firefighting with the AT-802 Fire Boss, to its militarized version: the AT-802U. We analyze its design, technical capabilities, turboprop engine, enormous payload capacity, and how a civilian platform ended up being used in patrol, counterinsurgency, and close air support missions in various countries around the world. A fascinating case where civil, agricultural, and military aviation intersect in a single aircraft.
