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.
