'Artnoon LM, Reg and Ken,
I hope the rest of your trip went well amd welcome back David![Thumb](https://www.pprune.org/images/smilies/thumbs.gif)
Off home soon and no time to play so far today. I was wondering if the other part to the US Navy question was the USAF. They did have the JPATS competition in the nineties. One wanted side-by-side, the other wanted Tandem and in the very end they settled on a tandem turboprop, but there were lots of runners and fallers along the way and spin-off programs followed in its wake!

Afternoon
Hit the nail on the head Sinco, yes this was to be a JPATS contender but the project was cancelled seemingly (from what I have read) before the tender process started because of a change of emphasis on the requirement.
The aircraft itself was a product of an international partnership, as well as support from a US manufacturer.
Not Korean RD

The ATTA 3000 ?
Preliminary design was made for Promavia by Gene Kerrigan, who worked previously at the advanced design group with Rockwell.
Promavia somehow managed to establish a partnership with Mikoyan Design Bureau and Boeing Defense Division to design a derivative of the Jet Squalus, the ATTA 3000.
I'm gonna have to ask for an Open House as I'm off now and have got a lot to do on the way and I'm not entirely certain that my internet at home will be workable as the engineers didn't fix it yesterday..![Ugh](https://www.pprune.org/images/smilies2/eusa_wall.gif)
Stand by F5 LM

LM, unfortunately for you its not....the Jet Squalus is a side-by-side 2 seat trainer:

Edit to say, as Sinco has declared OH, and LM came so close, I propose LM should take control

Thanks skytrain and sorry LM,
I had found a lead in Fright Archive and was looking again at Promavia, I had initially dismissed it 'coz I saw it flying at Farnborough!
as I added above:
