Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdoğan’s recent statement on the matter before the World Defence Show (WDS) 2026 exhibition, and TUSAŞ putting KAAN on display with Saudi livery, signal a new partnership for the project. Aviation Week Editor Tony Osborne photographed the new KAAN scaled model prior to the launch of WDS2026 on the 8th of Feburary.
Erdoğan, after the visit to Saudi Arabia, stated that a joint investment in KAAN with the Gulf country can happen “at any moment”, in response to a question from the press regarding cooperation with Saudi Arabia.
