The SIAI-Marchetti S.211 (later Aermacchi S-211) is a turbofan-powered military trainer aircraft designed and originally marketed by Italian aviation manufacturer SIAI-Marchetti.

The S.210 was developed from the single-engined S.205 and was an all-metal low-wing cantilever monoplane with a retractable tricycle landing gear. It was powered by two 200 hp (149 kW) Avco Lycoming TIO-360-A1B engines, one mounted on the leading edge of each wing.
In 1991–1992, SIAI-Marchetti proposed an updated SF.260, with an enlarged cockpit canopy and a revised fuel system to meet the United States Air Force's Enhanced Flight Screener competition. While the bid was unsuccessful (with the Slingsby T67 Firefly being preferred), it formed the basis for future production, as the fuel injected SF.260E ...
The prototype SIAI S.205 exhibited at the Paris Air Show in June 1965 S.205 basic version, metal, single-engine four-seat airplane, the F version had a fixed undercarriage, while the R version had a retractable undercarriage. It was offered with three different engines: S.205 F/R-18: Avco Lycoming O-360 S.205 F/R-20: Avco Lycoming IO-360-A1A
To meet an Italian Army requirement for a short take-off liaison aircraft, SIAI-Marchetti modified the design of the Cessna 305A/O-1 Bird Dog with a new turboprop engine and a revised tail unit. The prototype first flew on 24 May 1969 powered by a 317 hp (236 kW) Allison 250 -B15C turboprop engine.
Although the S.50 did not meet the specifications the Regia Aeronautica (Italian Royal Air Force) had established for entrants in the 1923 single-seat fighter contest—which specified that entrants be powered by the 224-kilowatt (300-horsepower) Hispano-Suiza HS 42 eight-cylinder water-cooled engine [3] —SIAI entered it anyway
The S.700 was designed to use as much of the SF.600 as possible to build a twin-engined amphibian, changes required included a stronger wing due to the increased all-up weight. [1] The S.700 was a high-wing cantilever monoplane with the ability to land on water or use a retractable tricycle landing gear. [ 1 ]
