IAI Lavi Comparison with Peers

This table is for purposes of comparing similarities and differences among designs, and illustrates certain design trends. By no means should this be used to draw unsubstantiated conclusions, for example, Aircraft A is a copy of Aircraft B, or Aircraft X is better than Aircraft Y. Some performance figures given may not be attainable under certain circumstances, for example, Aircraft A's top speed may be in a clean (no warload) configuration, while Aircraft B's top speed may be at a different altitude, with a full load.
