K75 Student to be retired early next year

One of the earliest aircraft designed by the Clones was the A-22/T-75 basic trainer which was one of the main types during the early Clone Wars. Although the A-22 was replaced by the A-85 (now K85) as the standard Clone COIN aircraft by the end of the Clone Wars the trainer version (K75 Student) remained the standard basic trainer of the air force, even though it had a number of flaws and was not that easy to fly!

Since 2111 the Clone Air Force has been building the replacement K76 Graduate which is a similar but clean sheet aircraft with a much more refined design. Now the once vast fleet of K75s has been reduced to just two regiments and these will convert to the K76 by the middle of 2121.
