The Songrim SR-12 ((Formal designation: 송림 12호 공격기 / 松林十二號攻擊機, Songrim Sibi-ho Gonggyŏkgi, "Songrim No.12 Attack Plane;" Short designation 송림-12 Songrim-Sibi "Songrim-12") is an all-weather twinjet fifth-generation jet fighter developed in Menghe by the Songrim Aircraft Corporation. It is designed as a multirole combat aircraft capable of taking on both air superiority and precision ground attack roles.
After a long development project spanning the 2000s, the SR-12 made its first flight in February 2014, and was first publicly unveiled at the 2018 National Day celebration. As of May 2019, a small number of production-model SR-12 airframes are in service with a training and evaluation squadron, but no deliveries to combat-ready units have been made.
