The Aermacchi MB-326 is a light military jet aircraft designed in Italy that was conceived as a two-seat trainer. The MB-326 was designed by Ermanno Bazzocchi (1914 ~ 2005) with a low-wing monoplane and an all-metal structure. Powered by a Rolls-Royce Viper non-afterburning turbojet with low air-intakes in the wing roots. Each wing had 22 ribs and two spars. The fuel system had one large tank in the middle-fuselage and two in the wingtips. The aft fuselage was almost entirely dedicated to the engine, from just behind the wings.

The prefix-MB is for Macchi and Bazzocchi.
