In the 1980s, Aero Vodochody began work on a substantially improved version of the L-39 under the designation "L-39M", where the "M" stood for "Modernised". This particular design was never built, as the organization decided to move a step further beyond it with the
"L-39MS", where "MS" unsurprisingly stood for "Modernized Super".
The L-39MS (renamed the L59 during production) was introduced with the name of "Super Albatros".The Super Albatros is derived from
the L-39ZA and looks much like it, but features:
- A strengthened fuselage with a slightly longer nose.
- A ZMK DV-2 turbofan engine with 21.6 kN (2,200 kgp / 4,850 lbf) thrust, allowing to carry a full combat load.
- New cockpit instrumentation, updating the earlier all-analog cockpit layout with a modernized layout featuring a single multifunction display (MFD) and a head-up display (HUD).
- VS-2 "zero-zero" ejection seats.
- A new single-piece "clamshell" type canopy.
- Larger wingtip tanks (230 liter).
- Hydraulic boosted controlls
