need a little help with this one

[thedarkmaster]

does anyone know anything about a soviet/russian aircraft, the ROS-Aeroprogress T-501 ?
I have a very small 3 view and a little info that leads me to believe it was under development by MIG.

it looks a tucano and i`m hoping to convert one to a russian trainer or coin aircraft.

I've looked in the Osprey Encyclopedia of Russian Aircraft and there is no entry for a ROS T-501. There are numerous light liason type aircraft (including a proposed An-2 replacement) but the type numbers jump from T-411 to T-724

Did some searching but this was all I could come up with.

ROKS-Aero Corporation, a division of Khrunichev State
Research and Production Space Center, is involved in design
and manufacture of general aviation aircraft.   Known initially
as ROS-Aeroprogress, this organization was founded in 1990 to
design and manufacture utility, commuter, amphibian, acrobatic,
agricultural, fire fighting, training, and other airborne vehicles.
It is a member of the Business Aviation Association.  It has the
following designs currently at various stages of research and
manufacture: T-101, T-106, T- 130, T-201, T-203, T-274,
T-401, T-407, T-411, T-433. T-501, T-501, T-602, T-610,
T-910, T-204, T-422, T-417.  Due to financial problems, most
designs are still only full scale mock-ups, and further financing
for the projects is being sought.
