The LIPNUR Belalang (Indonesian: Grasshopper) was a military trainer aircraft built in small numbers in Indonesia by LIPNUR in the late 1950s. It was essentially a Piper L-4J Grasshopper converted to give it a low wing. The NU-85 prototype flew for the first time on 17 April 1958 and the first production of NU-90 took place in 1959.[2] The aircraft was operated by Indonesian Air Force.[2] Indonesian Army and Indonesian Civil Aviation Institute at Curug, Tangerang also used this aircraft.[3]
