Since taking office, the current government of Prime Minister Pedro Sanchez has approved additional funds of €4.23 billion for major defense programs over the next 20 years.
According to Spanish media and industry sources, this latest decision funds two new programs: the acquisition of 23 additional NH90 helicopters, and the modernization of the Spanish Army’s fleet of CH-47D Chinook helicopters.

Interesting.  Spain is getting serious about their defense.  What I'd like to know is the status of their 8x8 Technology Program.  Is it moving forward?
