The Mondragón F19 Santana is a 4.5-generation, single-engine, supersonic multirole fighter aircraft designed and manufactured by Mondragón Heavy Industries. Its design was heavily influenced by the older and larger F17 Mediator air superiority fighter, with a similiar delta-canard configuration and many of the same, interchangeable parts. It is powered by a domestically produced MGED Eléctrico afterburning turbofan.
