Historical background of the NA-57/BT-9

The North American NA-57 and BT-9 were twin designs that played a significant role in pilot training in the 1930s and at the start of World War II. The NA-57 was an export version of the American BT-9, widely used by France, Canada, China, the Netherlands, Norway, and Mexico. These aircraft formed the backbone of pilot training, enabling transition to more advanced combat machines. The NA-57/BT-9 were used particularly intensively during the interwar period and at the beginning of World War II.
