The HFB 320 Hansa was a German transport and business aircraft with an all-metal structure from the post-war period. The prototype flight took place in 1964. Serial production was carried out in the years 1964-1973. About 50 aircraft of this type were built in its course. The propulsion was provided by two General Electric CJ610-5 turbojet engines with a thrust of 13.15 kN each. The length of the aircraft was 16.61 meters with a wingspan of 14.48 meters. The machine did not have a permanent on-board armament.

The HFB 320 Hansa aircraft was developed at the West German aviation company Hamburger Flugzeugbau as a grassroots initiative of this company. The plane was characterized by a rather conservative design, except for the use of negative slant wings. It is also worth adding that the first machines of this type were quite unstable in flight, which indirectly contributed to the crash of one of them in 1965. The manufacturer, however, quickly removed these problems. HFB 320 Hansa aircraft were used by both civilian customers, especially in the United States, and by the German Bundeswehr - for transport and training purposes.
