The SITAR GY-110 Sher Khan was a light aircraft designed in France in the late 1960s as a larger and more powerful version of designer Yves Gardan's Bagheera. Like the Bagheera, it was to be a conventional low-wing, cantilever monoplane with a fully enclosed cabin. However, although the Bagheera had seating for up to four people in 2+2 configuration, the Sher Khan was to have a stretched fuselage with full seating for four people. The wingspan was also to be enlarged, and unlike the Bagheera, whose tricycle undercarriage was fixed, the Sher Khan's was to be retractable.

Power was to be supplied by engines in the 150-kW to 240-kW (200-hp to 300-hp) range.
