In a historic move, Türkiye has finalized its biggest defense export to date: a contract to supply Indonesia with 48 KAAN fifth-gen fighter jets.
The deal includes joint engineering, tech transfer, and localized production, highlighting Türkiye’s rise in global aerospace manufacturing.
The KAAN, developed by Turkish Aerospace under the Presidency of Defense Industries, features stealth design, internal weapons bays, and next-gen avionics — making it a formidable multirole platform for contested airspace operations.
