The Piper PA-48 Enforcer is a turboprop-powered light close air support aircraft that was developed by Piper Aircraft in the 1970s. It is based on the design of the P-51 Mustang, a famous fighter plane from World War II. The Enforcer was intended to be a low-cost and effective solution for counter-insurgency missions, using a powerful Lycoming YT55-L-9 engine and various weapons such as bombs, rockets and napalm. The Enforcer underwent several tests and evaluations by the US Air Force, but it never entered service. Only four prototypes were built, and one of them is on display at the National Museum of the US Air Force.
