The SM-27 MACHETE is a fixed-wing military aircraft developed to satisfy COunter INsurgency (COIN), Close Air Support (CAS), Light Attack (LA), Forward Air Control (FAC) and Advanced Trainer (AT) missions. The SM-27 is a product of STAVATTI MILITARY AEROSPACE, a division of STAVATTI HEAVY INDUSTRIES, LTD. (STAVATTI). There is a distinct need for a capable replacement for OV-10 BRONCOs and A-37 DRAGONFLYs operated by U.S. allies worldwide. With over 230 such aircraft still in service today, STAVATTI identifies the SM-27 MACHETE as the only new platform which will effectively address this type of requirement. Furthermore, the USAF/AFRES/USANG has been operating 116 OA-10As in satisfaction of the FAC role. The average age of the OA-10A has exceeded 22 years and this type will require replacement within the next 10 to 20 years. The SM-27 is an appropriate successor to this type in the FAC/anti-terrorism role.
