To be honest it is a pretty gray area
Just as a point of reference EC-001 to EC-999 is, as far as I understand, civilian registry for Spain under "Test and delivery". The registrant is listed "Airbus Military", which was dissolved in 2014 to become
Airbus Defence and Space SAS (so It's a bit unclear how it could still be used in 2015). As far as I can tell no military personal works there and the people on board were civilians. As mentioned in a previous posts the Spanish AF was not in any shape of form concerned.
I guess there is no point insisting there - although there would be many objective reasons to have an Annex 13 investigation it will not happen.
