Why would they abandon KF-21 and divert to KAAN instead? KAAN is cheaper?
Who says they are abandoning KF-21?

Their president just showed his willingness to be part of Kaan. That's it. Nothing singed yet.

For one, I don't think they can afford to join 2 different programs. It's still too early so let's see

They are affording themselves 3 different fighters atm, Rafale, F-15EX and KF-21.

Kaan is something for the longer term to potentially replace and/or augment the Sukhoi's.

I dont about the other 2 , but indonesia is already struggling to afford continuing KF-21. Koreans already complained about their late payment to fund this program
