The Fiat G.91 is a jet fighter aircraft designed and built by the Italian aircraft manufacturer Fiat Aviazione, which later merged into Aeritalia.

The G91 was developed during the mid-1950s and was in fact designed as a scaled-down version of the North American F-86K, which explains the many similarities. G91 three-view schematic

The aircraft was clearly modeled on the US North American F-86K Sabre, license-built by Fiat, though scaled down, with an empty weight about 65% that of the Sabre.

Essentially a simplified F-86D Sabre, optimised for interception, the F-86K was built under license by Fiat in Italy. Primary differences being a MG-4 fire control system in place of the then secret Hughes E-4 system and 20mm cannon replacing the machine gun armament of the F-86D.

Apr 2, 2024 · The Fiat design, the G.91, was a robust conventional aircraft, by contemporary press often described (and later almost standard cited) as having resemblance with the F-86 Sabre, something that could be said about every jet with a low swept wing, conventional shaped tail plane and nose-inlet.

Feb 11, 2020 · 意大利 菲亚特 公司的G.91型轻型攻击机是为了满足意大利以及北约对一种轻型攻击机的需要而研制的，该机于1953年开始进行研制，1955年进行了首次试飞。 而后该机成为意大利、联邦德国、葡萄牙等国的主力飞机之一。 从外观上看，G.91同于50年代广泛装备北约国家的美国北美F-86D/K“佩刀”式截击机很相近，这也不奇怪，因为实际上G.91本身就是以F-86K为原型进行设计的，因此两者在外观上有很多相似的地方。 不过因为两者的任务不同，也使得两者有 …

The G.91Y first flew in 1966 and displayed a vast improvement in speed, range, payload, and maneuverability. It increased maximum speed to 600 kt (1,110 km/h, Mach 0.91).

Mar 5, 2021 · The G.91s are fairly maneuverable and make for decent gunfighters or support planes as well as CAS, while the Saber dog can be a bit more aggressive and still kind of CAS. G.91YS is straight up better. Hello. I'm currently gping through the italian tech tree and at aviation I'm at a dilemma. Just got the CL-13 mk. 4 and am able to research either…
