Czechia Offers L-39 “Skyfox” Aircraft to Serbia

Czech company “AERO Vodochody AEROSPACE” has announced that negotiations on the supply of L-39 “Skyfox” trainer and combat aircraft to Serbia have progressed significantly.

“Poliqonjurnal” reports that the company issued an official statement regarding the information circulating on the matter.

It was stated that during Czech Prime Minister Andrej Babiš’s official visit to Serbia, a concrete proposal for the supply of L-39 “Skyfox” aircraft was presented to the Serbian side. The proposal was positively received by Serbia, and the parties are currently working to agree on the remaining technical, commercial and financial issues.

According to the company, the project involves not only the supply of aircraft but also a wide range of technical, operational and contractual matters. In projects of this scale, it is considered normal for the process from the submission of a proposal to the signing of a contract to take several months.

The company emphasized that the negotiations are continuing in the standard manner and within normal timeframes. At the same time, it noted that there is a distinction between commercial negotiations being at an advanced stage and the actual signing of a contract.

“AERO Vodochody AEROSPACE” stated that it is confident in the quality of its proposal and in the capabilities that the L-39 “Skyfox” aircraft could provide to the Serbian Air Force. The company is optimistic that the negotiations will be successfully concluded in the near future.

It should be noted that as commercial discussions are currently ongoing, the company does not consider it appropriate to disclose additional details about the project at this stage.
