Čaj BAC Jet Provost je britanski avion za obuku koji je bio u upotrebi sa Kraljevskim vazduhoplovstvom (RAF) od 1955. do 1993. godine. Prvobitno je razvijen od strane Hunting Percival iz ranijeg klipnog motora povered Percival Provost osnovnog trenera, a kasnije proizveden od strane British Aircraft Corporation (BAC). Pored više RAF naloga, Jet Provost, ponekad sa lakim naoružanjem, je izvezen u mnogim vazduhoplovnim snagama širom sveta. Dizajn je takođe dalje razvijen u teže naoružanu varijantu kopnenog napada pod imenom BAC Strikemaster.
