TS-11 Iskra is a Polish jet trainer aircraft designed in the 1960s by engineer Tadeusz Sołtyk. It served mainly with the Air Forces of the Polish People's Republic and the Republic of Poland but was also exported to India. Iskras were widely used from the early 1960s throughout the Cold War and into the 21st century, serving as a training aircraft as well as a light close-support aircraft. The TS-11 Iskra was operated by Polish Air Force units and by the famous aerobatic team "Biało-Czerwone Iskry" (White and Red Sparks).

During the Cold War, the TS-11 was used both for training pilots and for patrolling airspace and light combat roles, including reconnaissance and support missions at training grounds. The detail offered in this set—the 23 mm gun barrel—corresponds to the original aircraft armament, the NR-23 cannon, used in reinforced versions of the Iskra.
