​​​​​​​Spain plans to take delivery of six additional A400M transport aircraft over the next four years, citing the planes' excellent performance with the Spanish Air Force in the last few years.

Spain had initially commissioned Airbus for the delivery of 27 A400M in 2001 but cut this down to 14 after budget cuts in 2013. The remaining 13 aircraft were planned to be sold on the open market, but no buyer has emerged for them so far.

The Spanish Ministry of Defence now wants to take delivery of six of those 13 planes to bring the country's fleet to 20 aircraft, leaving only 7 airframes to potentially be sold on the open market.
