Turkey to Export 48 Kaan Fighter Jets to Indonesia

Turkey’s defence sector, including the famous Bayraktar drones, accounts for a significant share of the country’s export revenues.

“As part of the agreement signed with our friendly and brotherly country, Indonesia, 48 Kaan (fighter jets) will be produced in Turkey and exported to Indonesia,” Erdogan wrote on X.

The fifth-generation fighter jet Kaan is produced by state-run Turkish Aerospace Industries (TAI).

“Indonesia’s local capabilities will also be utilised in the production of Kaan jets, added the Turkish head of state without providing further details on the production arrangements.

In 2024, Turkey’s defence industry export revenues reached $7.1 billion, an increase of $1.6 billion compared with 2023.
