GFD is a subsidiary of Airbus and operates a dozen Learjet35's as target aircraft with drogues under the wing (remember the Learjet was based on a design for a Swiss jet fighter!).
Seeing that all ministers will from now on be shamed into not flying MATS we can re-configure the L35 for MedEvac and target tug. At least it will give the artillery boys something closer to the speed of a modern attacker than the Cessna did.

Well now that Pilatus have started to make Bizjets, maybe they might like to expand into Jet TrainersIt was the year of fire...the year of destruction...the year we took back what was ours.
It was the year of rebirth...the year of great sadness...the year of pain...and the year of joy.
It was a new age...It was the end of history.
It was the year everything changed.

Any chance of an exchange I wonder?
