As the culmination of an excellent 2025 edition of the International Defense Fair (FEINDEF), in which we were able to participate and observe numerous technological innovations, tomorrow, Wednesday, May 14, an event of special importance for the Spanish Armed Forces will be held.
This event will mark the signing of the MoU as a framework for future collaboration between Spanish industry and the Air Force’s new advanced trainer program.
According to various industry sources, the Spanish program would consist of at least two phases. The first phase, apparently already finalized, would include aircraft produced entirely in Turkey but certified by the Spanish industry.
A second batch is pending finalization, and its characteristics regarding Spanish systems and the participation of Spanish industry are currently being negotiated.
This news represents a crucial step forward for the Hurjet in becoming the platform for training and capabilities for military pilots in Spain, as well as excellent news for both the Spanish Air Force and the Spanish defense industry. This is a developing story that we will continue to detail in subsequent updates.
