Austrian Air Force future plans…

Hi all here,

perhaps any one from Austria who can tell me more; it seems that the Austrian Air Force is looking towards the ALENIA M.346 and BAe Hawk for future SAAB 105Ö replacement…. it seems that by 2015 the new jet trainer should have been in service! Any one has any more information?

Also, the ÖLK is to withdraw soon the AB.206 fleet (and later the Alouette III), so most likely a new helicopter should be bought to replace both helicioter types… Any additional info welcome.

Cheers all,

Tiger II
