Model Variants for buyers to consider when purchasing an Air Tractor AT-400
When you search Air Tractor AT-400 aircraft for sale you may also see closely related 400 series variants that share the same 400 US gal [1,510 L] hopper concept but differ in engine choice and wing design. The AT-400 pairs an AT-301 airframe with a PT6A-15AG turbine and a short span wing, while the AT-400A uses a PT6A-20 turbine and targets buyers who want a different power and equipment balance. The AT-401 is a piston powered alternative with a radial engine and a longer span wing, and the AT-401A keeps the AT-401 airframe with a PZL-3S engine. The AT-401B updates the AT-401 with revised wingtips and a further increased wingspan, which can appeal to operators who prioritise payload efficiency and handling in the working envelope. The AT-402 moves back to turbine power with a PT6A-15, and the AT-402A is a lower cost PT6A-20 version aimed at simpler ownership profiles. The AT-402B builds on the AT-402 with revised wingtips and an increased span aligned with the AT-401B, so buyers comparing listings should confirm the exact variant, engine model and wing configuration before deciding.
