Striker

serial high performance
LTF/EN D

Striker is a serial D-class high performance glider with a aspect ratio of 6,5. Developing Striker, we've put 25 years of experience into its design and flight characteristics.

The result of our efforts is a racing wing for competing cross country pilots as well as other performance oriented pilots. Striker shows up with a simple take-off handling, high top speed, high gliding performance and the typical independce handling: subtle and well modulated.

Strikers flight characteristics under extreme conditions are, at least for a D-class wing, outmost even-tempered!
