In general, the T-50 series of aircraft closely resembles the KF-16 in configuration. Prior South Korean aircraft programs include the turboprop KT-1 basic trainer produced by Daewoo Aerospace (now part of KAI), and license-manufactured KF-16. The T-50 program was originally intended to develop an indigenous trainer aircraft capable of supersonic flight, to train and prepare pilots for the KF-16 and F-15K, replacing trainers such as T-38 and A-37 that were then in service with the ROKAF. Thailand ordered 12 units of the T-50 advanced trainer variant (T-50TH) starting in 2015. The Philippines ordered 12 units of the FA-50 light fighter variant in 2014, delivered over the next few years with the country considering to order another batch of 12 planes. The TA-50 light attack variant have also been ordered by Indonesia in 2011, with 16 planes entering service by 2014 an additional 6 planes were ordered in 2021. Iraq ordered 24 training variants called the T-50IQ in 2013, and received them in 2016. The T-50 has been in service with a number of countries. The T-50B serves with the South Korean air force's aerobatics team. A F-50 single-seat multirole fighter variant was considered before being cancelled. The T-50 has been further developed into aerobatic and combat variants, namely T-50B, TA-50, and FA-50. The aircraft entered active service with the Republic of Korea Air Force (ROKAF) in 2005. Development began in the late 1990s, and its maiden flight occurred in 2002. The T-50 is South Korea's first indigenous supersonic aircraft and one of the world's few supersonic trainers. The KAI T-50 Golden Eagle (골든이글) is a family of South Korean supersonic advanced jet trainers and light combat aircraft, developed by Korea Aerospace Industries (KAI) with Lockheed Martin.
