HFA-21 "Buhawi" (proof of concept build)

A little something for my ongoing revamp of a worldbuilding project

Haghari Fighter Attacker - design 21 "Buhawi"
A beefed-up Lokawo TP-104 modified by local Haghari industries, with assistance from Boyana Aviation contractors, in an attempt to make a locally-designed self-sufficient attacker.
Only 7 built (one lost to accident). Neither a good attacker nor a bad one but very average, has since been turned into a propaganda piece to woo Haghari's feathered populace while actual modernization procurement takes place.
Mixed reception among HADF pilots; most loving the HFA-21 for its stability and armament, some despising it for its sluggishness, while others shrug their shoulders and just fly.
