signedIndonesia joined the KF-21/IF-X program as a 20% co-development partner, originally committing about 1.7 trillion won toward development costs in exchange for technology transfer and a prototype aircraft. Payment arrears have been a recurring issue; its share was cut to 7.5% in 2024 and a revised agreement signed in June 2025 reportedly reduced its contribution to 600 billion won.
