South Korea’s Kakao Mobility tentatively agrees to purchase up to 50 Midnight air taxis and will fund Archer’s commercialization efforts in the country.

Highlights from the year include increased E-Jet deliveries and military orders for the C-390 Millennium transport.

The fighter jet experienced an ‘in-flight emergency’ over the West Sea, Air Force officials said.

Deliveries of the Lockheed Martin Lightning II fighter jets are to begin in 2027.

The deal increases the number of the special operations variant of the Boeing heavy-lift helicopter under contract to 42.

The Fighting Falcon pilot ejected during an in-flight emergency over the Yellow Sea while on a routine training flight.

The deal for an undisclosed number of aircraft makes the Republic of Korea Air Force the first C-390 operator in Asia.

The training aircraft are the first of its order of 40 helicopters to be delivered by 2025.

More than 130 fighter, cargo, tanker, and reconnaissance aircraft are participating in the ‘Vigilant Defense 24’ event.

The manufacturer signed agreements to provide air taxis, establish a nationwide AAM network, and provide aircraft and training to Korean police.
