Design and development

Based on the earlier IAR 21 and in particlularly the IAR 22 but the design was simplified to allow for mass-production. The IAR 27 was a braced low-wing monoplane powered by a 180 hp (134 kW) IAR 6G1 piston engine and it had two open cockpits in tandem. More than 200 aircraft were built and they served with both civil and military training schools in Romania.
