The aircraft features a high-wing configuration, swept wings, and twin turbofan engines. Thanks to its excellent flight characteristics, reliability, and ease of maintenance, the aircraft entered service with numerous nations and also became the iconic mount of the famous Patrouille de France aerobatic team.
