2007 BAC Jet Provost on Briti reaktiivtreeninglennuk, mida kasutati kuninglikes õhujõududes (RAF) aastatel 1955–1993. Algselt töötas selle välja Hunting Percival varasemast kolbmootoriga Percival Provost põhitreeningkoolist ja hiljem tootis seda Briti Lennukikorporatsioon (BAC). Lisaks mitmetele RAF-i tellimustele eksporditi Jet Provost, mõnikord kergerelvastusega, paljudele õhujõududele üle maailma. Disaini arendati edasi ka raskemalt relvastatud maapealse rünnaku variandiks BAC Strikemasteri nime all.
