In 1985 it purchased assets of Fournier motor glider factory in France, including sole manufacturing rights for RF-10; has since incorporated several improvements to basic model, including a turbocharged engine and a trainer variant. A lightplane version, the AMT-600 Guri, with reduced wing span, first flew in 1999.
