Turkey to sell 48 fighter jets to Indonesia in record deal

Investing.com -- Turkey will sell 48 fighter jets to Indonesia over the next decade, Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan announced.

The agreement involves the Kaan fifth-generation planes, which are still under development in Turkey. Erdogan described the deal as "record-breaking" for the country’s military exports, though he did not reveal any financial details.

"This clearly reflects the progress and capabilities of our domestic and national defense industry," Erdogan said.

The deal comes as Indonesia, the largest economy in Southeast Asia, works to diversify its military partnerships beyond traditional Western allies. Under President Subianto’s leadership, Indonesia has been exploring defense cooperation with countries including Turkey and China as part of a broader initiative to strengthen its armed forces.

For Turkey, the agreement represents a significant step in its efforts to build up its defense industry and increase exports of military hardware.
