The implication is that there will not be any modernization plan for the AT-3 in the foreseeable future and that the air-launch HF-2 anti-ship missile program is all but dead.  Actually I think 0902&#8217;s older sibling, 0901, should have been the one to retire first because 0902 had received a quite expensive modernization upgrade.  I wonder how 0901 is doing now.<\/p>\n<p>On a related topic, F-CK-1A 1417, previously loaned to AIDC as a testbed, has returned to active service.  It was spotted on CCK Open Day, painted in the 7th TFG markings.  I guess AIDC does not need it any more because they now have the newer and more capable F-CK-C\/D prototypes.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I was quite surprised when I learned that the A-3 0902, one of the only two ever built, had been withdrawn from service and put on permanent static display in AIDC.
