Teh ΕΚΚ Γ-36 ήταν ένα ελβετικό μαχητικό αεροσκάφος πολλαπλών χρήσεων των δεκαετιών του 1930 και του 1940, που κατασκευάστηκε από την Eidgenoessische Konstruktionswerkstaette. Ήταν ένα μονοκινητήριο μονοπλάνο με πλήρωμα δύο ατόμων. Τέθηκε σε υπηρεσία κατά τη διάρκεια του Β 'Παγκοσμίου Πολέμου το 1942, και παρά το γεγονός ότι ήταν ξεπερασμένο, παρέμεινε σε χρήση πρώτης γραμμής μέχρι τις αρχές της δεκαετίας του 1950 και ως ρυμουλκό στόχου μέχρι το 1987.

General Characteristics (C-3603 Production Variant)
The EKW C-36 was a Swiss-designed and built multi-purpose combat aircraft developed in the late 1930s and used throughout World War II and the early Cold War. Designed by the Eidgenössische Konstruktionswerkstätte (EKW), it served primarily as a reconnaissance, ground attack, and fighter-bomber for the Swiss Air Force, defending the nation’s neutrality. It is known for its twin-boom tail and long career, later serving as a target tug until 1987 in the turboprop C-3605 variant.
