The NA48 Chainbreaker (Takelat: ⵏⴰ48 ⵔⴰⵣⴰⵜⵉⵙⵦⵏⵙⴰⵍⴰⵏ; NA48 Razatisensalan) is a twinjet, canard, delta-wing, multirole combat fighter. The Chainbreaker is generally regarded as a 4.5++ generation aircraft, equipped with advanced sensors and avionics with limited stealth design, and capable of engaging in supremacy, interdiction, reconnaissance, close air support, and anti-ship warfare missions.

Developed from the NA28 Spirit Wind, the Chainbreaker was intended to consolidate the roles of the NA28 Spirit Wind and the NA28/36 Sunray in a modern platform. The airframe first flew in 1998, but the development of the aircraft's systems delayed its official introduction to 2004. While primarily a domestic project, the full avionics and sensor suite was developed with a number of foreign resources and technologies.

Following its introduction, the Chainbreaker was marketed for export to a limited number of socialist republics worldwide. The Talaharan Air Corps remains the primary user of the aircraft, in addition to the Tyreseian Workers' Naval Air Service.
