The Hispano HS-42 and its derivative the HA-43 were military trainer aircraft produced in Spain in the 1940s. The basic design was that of a conventional low-wing cantilever monoplane with seating for the pilot and instructor in tandem. The HS-42 had fixed tailwheel undercarriage with spatted mainwheels while the HA-43 had retractable main units. Produced on the assembly line that had been used to build Fokker D.XXI fighters the HS-42 shared some components with this aircraft.
