The Kraguj is an all metal, single seat, light weight aircraft; developed for many military roles and capable to carry required ordnance to a target with minimum cost. The simplicity of design requires minimum of pilot training.
The operation in very close proximity to the front line is ensured since take-off and landing from small, un­prepared grass airstrips is possible. Single aircraft or in squadron strength can be moved quickly to almost any locality near the front line. Armed with rockets, bombs, napalm, small bombs for troop targets and machine guns, this aircraft can be used against limited enemy troop actions, troop concentrations, supply trains, convoys of truck tanks, mobile artillery, small boats etc. The Kraguj may be also used for light transport roles both in army and civil services. Useful load of about 500 kg is available for such pur­poses.
The Kraguj has been under development for several years of extensive design, testing and production. The development of this aircraft was carried out in collabo­ration between the Yugoslav Aeronautical Research Establishments and the Yugoslav Aircraft Industry. The aircraft was built in accordance with the latest Mili­tary Airworthiness Requirements and Tactical and Operational Study. Many internationally known Yugo­slav and foreign firms supplied high quality equipment for this aircraft.
Particular attention was paid to simplicity of design and technological processes in manufacture so that this aircraft can be manufactured in the countries with limited technological possibilities and smaller capa­cities of the aircraft industry.
