The IAR-823 is a Romanian multipurpose aircraft for civil and military purposes.
history
Construction work began in 1970 under the direction of Radu Manicatide. A year later, construction of the prototype began at the IAR plant in Brașov , and it flew for the first time on June 10, 1973. After the successful testing, the sample was released for series production. The IAR-823 was designed for various tasks. In the two-seater version, it can be used as a sport aircraft suitable for aerobatics, without seating as a transporter for up to 400 kg of cargo. There is a four-seat travel version as well as a medical version with space for a stretcher and a seat for an accompanying person. The Romanian air force , which received the majority of the built numbers with around 60 units, used the model as a navigation and instrument trainer as well as for night flight training. The remaining IAR-823 were delivered to flying clubs. Production in Brașov ended in 1983 after 78 units had been built.
