If there was a program to replace the T-6 and expand the syllabus taught in phase 2

M-345… took a big sip of the kool aid… it’s probably the best jet for an intermediate+ trainer

PC-21 / AT-6C if the Bobs wanted to stay turboprop for intermediate+ trainer

 

You absolutely would not "take a barrier" if PLM failed, it requires far more precision than a regular carrier landing and the consequence for screwing it up close to the deck is certain death
