Kuwait Contract
15 June 2016 7
Kuwait Signs Contract for the Delivery of 28 Eurofighter Typhoons on 5th April 2016
The contract signature for 22 single-seat and six twin-seat follows the announcement of an agreement
between the State of Kuwait and the Italian Government for the procurement of the aircraft on 11th
September 2015. The aircraft will be of Tranche 3 standard and will be equipped with the E-Scan radar.
The contract confirms the State of Kuwait as the eighth customer in the programme and as the third
customer in the Gulf Region next to the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia and the Sultanate of Oman.
The confirmation of this order is further testament of the growing interest in the Eurofighter Typhoon in the
Gulf Region. It will enable Kuwait to benefit from the critical mass being developed in the Gulf and the
many advantages that it brings to an Air Force in terms of interoperability, training and in-service support.
