Aero Vodochody closes in on Skyfox sale to Serbia
Czech aircraft manufacturer Aero Vodochody said it was in advanced discussions with Serbia over a possible sale of L-39 Skyfox advanced trainers and light-combat aircraft. The company clarified on November 10, 2026, that a concrete proposal had been presented during a Czech prime-ministerial visit but that technical, commercial and financial terms still required agreement. Although Czech political remarks referred to six or eight aircraft, Aero did not confirm a contracted quantity, delivery schedule or signed purchase. The negotiation could cover supporting operational and technical arrangements as well as aircraft, but remains a proposed export transaction rather than a completed procurement.
