At the Singapore Airshow 2026, Leonardo signed a Letter of Intent with PT ESystem Solutions Indonesia and the Ministry of Defence of Indonesia to supply M-346F 'Block 20' aircraft for the Indonesian Air Force. This agreement follows the MoD's selection of the M-346 to enhance training and combat capabilities and supports Indonesia's fleet modernization plan, replacing aging models like the Hawk.

The LOI includes localization of maintenance and training capabilities. The M-346F Block 20 will feature advanced technology for both training and combat roles, with a focus on operational flexibility. The next phase will involve discussions aimed at finalizing a procurement contract.
