The Nord 2800 was a three-seat training monoplane designed and built in France by Nord Aviation in response to a French Air Force requirement for a military trainer. It was of all-metal construction with a retractable tailwheel undercarriage and a Salmson inverted V-8 piston engine of about 180 kilowatts. Two crew sat side by side with the third seated behind them. It competed against the Dassault MD-80 ABC and the Morane-Saulnier MS.730, but flight tests showed controllability problems that were not cured by changes to the tail and rudder, and the MS.730 won the contest.
