The Royal Thai Navy has ordered two Airbus C295 aircraft configured for transport, surveillance and search-and-rescue operations. The order follows an Air Force order last week for two aircraft.

Saab has signed a €3.1 billion contract with Colombia for 17 Gripen E/F fighter aircraft including two twin-seat Gripen F fighters to be delivered between 2026 and 2032, following orders from Thailand recently, a Ukrainian letter of intent for hundreds of aircraft and strong prospects coming up in Canada.
A statement from Saab on Wednesday said the order was worth 2.2 billion Swedish Kronor, around USD 310 million. The Royal Thai Air Force already operates four single-seat ‘C’ variants and two ‘D’ versions of the aircraft, which were acquired in 2008.
The US has agreed to the fitting of Royal Thai Air Force Gripen aircraft with its weapons systems.
