The Hispano HA-200 Saeta was a 1950s Spanish two-seat advanced jet trainer produced by Hispano Aviación.

Design and development

The HA-200 Saeta ("Dart") was the first Spanish turbojet aircraft. It was developed from the earlier piston powered trainer the HA-100 Triana with the participation of Willy Messerschmitt. The prototype first flew on 12 August 1955 and the first production aircraft flew in 1962. The HA-200A aircraft were delivered to the Spanish Air Force with the designation E.14. A single seat version (the HA-220) for the ground-attack role was developed and delivered to the Spanish Air Force with the designation C.10.

The aircraft was built in Egypt under licence as the Helwan HA-200B Al-Kahira by the Helwan Air Works.
