A basic training aircraft for young pilots to learn how to fly multiple engined aircraft. Although its primary use is as a trainer, the dove is famous for its quick conversion into a light attack and support aircraft as well as a transport and cargo plane. Usually the only distinguishable difference between the trainer and the frontline aircraft is the orange and yellow tail section on the trainers. Since most aircraft need to be battle ready in less than five minutes, trainers are usually converted via a water hose to erase the trainer markings. Due to its versitillaty and forgiving flight characteristics, over 800 doves are in corsarian service with orders bringing the total up to 1,000 aircraft.
