    A dark-colored military turboprop aircraft is parked on a concrete tarmac apron, likely at a Brazilian air force base. The aircraft appears to be an Embraer EMB 314 Super Tucano (A-29), identifiable by its tandem two-seat cockpit, five-blade propeller, and underwing stores. The setting is an open airfield with green grass surroundings and a partly cloudy sky.

    The Super Tucano has won the U.S. Air Force light air support contest, but Hawker Beechcraft has gone to court to try to overturn the choice.
