Italy’s Piaggio Aerospace Lands First Order for Turkish Avanti EVO
(MENAFN) Italian aerospace manufacturer Piaggio Aerospace, recently acquired by Turkish drone producer Baykar, has landed its inaugural order for the P.180 Avanti EVO light transport aircraft from a Turkish firm, the company announced Wednesday.
“Piaggio Aerospace has secured a new order for two P.180 Avanti EVO aircraft from a Turkish company, which will operate them in shuttle and ambulance configuration,” the statement said.
The aircraft will be tailored to serve dual roles in executive transport and air ambulance services, highlighting a rising demand for versatile regional aviation platforms.
“This order reinforces the strong international positioning of the Avanti EVO,” said Piaggio Aerospace CEO Giovanni Tomassini. He emphasized, “We are building a new future for Piaggio Aerospace thanks to the full support of the new owner, Baykar.”
Baykar Technologies, renowned for its Bayraktar TB2, Akinci, and Kizilelma drones, completed its acquisition of Piaggio Aerospace in June following an initial deal signed in December.
In addition to Piaggio, Baykar has formed strategic collaborations with Leonardo, one of Europe’s leading aerospace and defense companies, culminating in the creation of LBA Systems — a joint venture focused on developing “next generation unmanned systems.”
