Diehl Defence has signed a support deal with the Royal Thai Air Force (RTAF) to improve the operational readiness and employment of IRIS-T short-range air-to-air missiles on its fighter aircraft.
This contract continues the successful and enduring collaboration between Diehl Defence and the RTAF for IRIS-T missile integration.
For Diehl Defence, the agreement marks another key milestone in enhancing cooperation with the RTAF and expanding IRIS-T use to further platforms.
The IRIS-T, a fifth-generation missile, is already fitted to Eurofighter Typhoon, Gripen, F-16, EF-18, F-5, and Tornado jets.
Integration work on the KAI KF-21 fighter is currently underway.
