Cockpit: Features a tandem dual-control cockpit with two Martin-Baker Mk. 10L zero-zero ejection seats. The instructor’s (rear) seat is elevated by 30 cm for better forward visibility.
Construction: Predominantly light alloy, with some use of graphite-fiber composites (like the airbrake panels) to reduce weight.
Hardpoints: Equipped with five external hardpoints (one centerline and four underwing) plus wingtip launch rails for air-to-air missiles.
Attack Role: The AT-3B upgrade introduced a more capable APG-66T radar and a Head-Up Display (HUD) to enhance its ground attack capabilities.

- Guns: 20 mm gun pods or, in some early versions, semi-recessed twin 12.7 mm machine guns in a ventral gun bay.
