Airbus Rolls Out Spain’s First C295 Maritime Surveillance Aircraft for Testing Phase

On July 30, 2025, a significant milestone was marked as the first C295 Maritime Surveillance Aircraft (MSA) destined for Spain officially rolled out from Airbus’s Final Assembly Line in Seville. This event signals the launch of a new chapter in Spanish aerial maritime capabilities. As reported by Airbus, the aircraft now enters the testing and certification phase ahead of its maiden flight later this year. Designed to succeed the ageing CN-235 VIGMA fleet, the C295 MSA will reshape how Spain tackles evolving threats in maritime and overland theaters. With eight aircraft scheduled for delivery from 2026, this transition represents a strategic leap in surveillance, interdiction, and search-and-rescue operations.
