Did Air Tractor ever have a shot at this? I thought they were building some military models suitable for counter-insurgency.

“Did Air Tractor ever have a shot at this?”

Apparently they had about the same shot at this as the AT-6. (sarcasm)

The AT-6 is ready to go right now. AT-1 and AT-2 were the test aircraft and the third off the line is representative of production. So by the time this contract is awarded, yes, it is an ‘off-the-shelf’ peice of equipment.
