Eurofighter Typhoon Procurement: Türkiye Awaits Price Offer TurDef
Following Türkiye's formal request, the Turkish Ministry of National Defence (MoD) has stated that it expects a price bid from BAE Systems to acquire Eurofighter Typhoon fighter planes.
According to MoD sources, until the native KAAN starts operating, the Turkish Air Force is assessing the possibility of upgrading its fleet with sophisticated fighter aircraft.
The procurement process aims to diversify the inventory and integrate modern technology into the Air Force's operational capabilities.
The MoD sources stated, "In line with the requirements of our Air Force Command, efforts continue to introduce modern, technologically advanced fighter jets into the inventory and diversify the fleet until our national aircraft KAAN becomes operational. Within this framework, a Requirements Definition Document has been submitted to the UK Ministry of Defence and BAE Systems regarding the procurement of Eurofighter Typhoon. Right now, the pertinent firm is sending us a pricing offer."
