The Polish Air Force Monday signed a contract with Airbus Military for the acquisition of five C295 transport aircraft to further expand their transport capabilities.
Deliveries will start end of this year and continue into 2013.
The aircraft will join the existing C295s currently in service, increasing the fleet to 16 aircraft, and will be used to support the Polish Air Force in its national and international operations.
“The C295 is working extremely well with the Polish Air Force and we are proud to have a further vote of confidence from our customer with this new order for a further five aircraft. We have a very close relationship with Poland also through our Polish subsidiary and we look forward to further expand our footprint in Poland”, said Domingo Ureña Raso, CEO of Airbus Military.
“This order also underlines our leadership in this segment with over 110 orders of which 27 orders were placed this year,” he added.
This now brings to the total orders for the C295 to 113, with 85 currently in operation with 13 countries.
