MH02
Role Experimental aircraft
Manufacturer Honda
Mississippi State University
First flight 5 March 1993
Number built 1

The MH02 was an experimental business jet built by Honda, in cooperation with Mississippi State University, to research engine placement and composite construction. The prototype was completed in 1992, making its first flight on 5 March, 1993.

The MH02 was never intended for production, but was nonetheless the first all-composite light business jet to fly; by 1996 over 170 test flight hours were accumulated on the airframe. Aside from the already unusual above-the-wing engine mounts, the design features a T-tail and a forward-swept wing. The plane was deregistered and exported to Japan in 1998.[1]
