Fuerzas Aeromóviles del Ejército de Tierra (FAMET)

The Spanish Army Airmobile Force (FAMET) began in July 1965 as a light aviation unit of the Brunete Armoured Division with a handful of American Hueys, flew its first operation in the Spanish Sahara in 1971–1975, has since sent helicopters to every major Spanish deployment from Kurdistan to Afghanistan and Mali, and in 2026 is rebuilding around the Tigre Mk III, the CH-47F, a growing NH90 fleet and a planned fleet of light H145M twins.

その物語

The Spanish Army Airmobile Force story: Hueys in the Sahara, a Cougar lost in Afghanistan and a hundred Airbus helicopters

1958–1973: from borrowed Bird Dogs to an army air arm

Spain’s army did not get its own aircraft easily. In 1958, according to Spanish Wikipedia, it bought 13 Bird Dog light aircraft, two H-19 and two OH-23C helicopters, only for the Air Force to fly them in its 99 Escuadrilla de Enlace at Alcalá de Henares. The real start came on 10 July 1965, when a staff instruction created the Aviación Ligera del Ejército de Tierra, a light aviation unit for the Brunete Armoured Division. The Army’s own page dates the base at Los Remedios, Colmenar Viejo, to 29 June 1966; Spanish Wikipedia gives 27 May 1966. On 29 July 1966 the first two Bell UH-1B Iroquois arrived. On 20 March 1973 the unit took the name it still has, Fuerzas Aeromóviles del Ejército de Tierra, under Colonel Ángel Maté Sánchez, whose name the Colmenar Viejo base now carries.

1971–1975: the Sahara, the first real test

The first test came in Africa. On 24 March 1971 the helicopter unit UHEL II was formed at El Aaiún in the Spanish Sahara; its 12 new UH-1H (HU-10) were carried south, according to Spanish Wikipedia, in the carrier Dédalo that December. The Army’s mission summary lists transport, patrol, liaison, observation, adjustment of artillery fire and fire support, and many medical evacuations for the local population, from the base Santiago at El Aaiún and with the Legion at Smara. Spanish Wikipedia adds three armed OH-58 Kiowas and three Alouette IIIs with AS.11 missiles in 1975, and says two UH-1Hs evaded an SA-7 missile on 13 May 1975; the Army summary does not mention that attack. After the Green March and the Madrid Accords of 14 November 1975, the last UHEL II helicopters left El Aaiún on 19 December 1975.

1973–1998: Chinooks, Bölkows and the battalion structure

At home the 1970s and 1980s built the force’s shape. The first CH-47C Chinooks arrived in 1973 (a fiftieth anniversary was marked in April 2023), and the Chinook has been the heavy lifter at Colmenar Viejo ever since, upgraded to CH-47D from 1989. Helicopter units followed at Agoncillo (1974), El Copero near Seville (1975) and Los Rodeos in Tenerife (1977). The Bölkow Bo 105 gave FAMET an anti-tank helicopter with HOT missiles, plus armed scouts; Agusta-Bell 212s came in 1981 and Super Pumas in the mid-1980s. Accidents were part of the cost: Spanish Wikipedia records a UH-1B hitting power lines on 28 December 1966 with four killed, and a crash near Los Remedios on 20 April 1977 that killed seven, among them Colonel Maté. In 1988 the units became battalions: BHELA I for attack at Almagro, manoeuvre battalions, and BHELTRA V for the Chinooks.

1991–2013: from Kurdistan to Afghanistan, and the worst day

In April 1991 five Hueys and two Chinooks flew for the Kurds from Zakho, and from then on, the Army says, Spanish army helicopters were almost continuously abroad: SFOR in Bosnia from 1997 to 2005 (22 rotations and 4,674 flying hours), Albania and Kosovo in 1999–2000, Kyrgyzstan for combat search and rescue in 2002–2003, and Diwaniya in Iraq in 2003–2004. In July 2002 four Cougars landed special forces on Perejil Island, the islet also claimed by Morocco. Afghanistan was the longest and hardest: from September 2004 to December 2013, 20 ASPUHEL rotations flew from Kabul and then Herat in support of Spain’s reconstruction team at Qala-i-Naw. On 16 August 2005 a Cougar crashed in western Afghanistan and 17 Spanish soldiers died, the heaviest loss in FAMET’s history; the sources reached for this page do not establish the cause.

2007–2024: Tigre, NH90 and the new Chinook

The new century brought European helicopters. Spain joined the Tiger programme in 2003 and ordered 24, with HAD deliveries from 2007 according to English Wikipedia (the Army’s own BHELA I history has the first three HAP arriving on 14 April 2007 and the first HAD at Almagro on 18 December 2014); three Tigres flew convoy escort in Afghanistan in 2013, during the withdrawal from Qala-i-Naw to Herat. The six early HAP-E Tigres were retired around the end of 2020 rather than upgraded, and the 18 HAD-E are to become Tigre Mk III from about 2030. NH90s (HT.29) arrived at Agoncillo from 2014, and three flew for EUTM Mali from Bamako in 2021–2022. A programme approved in 2018 turned the Chinook fleet into 17 CH-47F, the last of them delivered in October 2024. Task Force Toro carried coalition troops and cargo in Iraq from June 2018, first from Taji and then Al Asad. EC135s have trained army pilots at Colmenar Viejo since December 2005.

2025–2026: a hundred Airbus helicopters, and what they do not buy

In 2025–2026 the money arrived. Royal Decree 848/2025 of 23 September 2025 lent Airbus 3.68 billion euros for six programmes, including a third NH90 batch of 32 for the three services and the HELIPO light twin for the Army to replace the EC135; the contract followed on 18 December 2025, and a specialist blog reports that FAMET gets 50 H145M and 13 NH90. The H175M in the same package is for the Air and Space Force, not FAMET. The first NH90 Standard 3 arrived in December 2025 and the type reached BHELMA IV in Seville in September 2026. Since May 2025 Tigres and an NH90 have flown on NATO’s eastern flank from Malacky in Slovakia. The weak points remain: old Super Pumas, Cougars and AB-212s, and no army drone that the official pages assign to FAMET.

The first test came in Africa. On 24 March 1971 the helicopter unit UHEL II was formed at El Aaiún in the Spanish Sahara; its 12 new UH-1H (HU-10) were carried south, according to Spanish Wikipedia, in the carrier Dédalo that December.Spanish Army Airmobile Force · verified 2026-09-30

How the Spanish Army Airmobile Force is organised

A headquarters at Colmenar Viejo, commanded by a brigadier general, over one attack battalion, one heavy transport battalion, two manoeuvre battalions, an emergency battalion and the Army aviation academy. The only combat unit is BHELA I with the Tigre at Almagro; the Chinooks fly from Colmenar Viejo, the NH90s from Agoncillo and now Seville, and the emergency helicopters from Bétera for the Military Emergencies Unit. The Canary Islands battalion answers to the Canary Islands Command; naval aviation and the Air and Space Force are separate services and are not counted here.

質疑応答

Everything people ask about the Spanish Army Airmobile Force

What is the Spanish Army Airmobile Force called in Spanish?
Fuerzas Aeromóviles del Ejército de Tierra, shortened to FAMET; that is the name on the Army’s official site, ejercito.defensa.gob.es. The English name follows the current English Wikipedia article title. It was created in 1965 as the Aviación Ligera del Ejército de Tierra and took the FAMET name on 20 March 1973.
What helicopters does the Spanish Army fly in 2026?
The Army lists six types: the Tigre attack helicopter (HA-28), the CH-47チヌーク (HT-17, now all CH-47F), the NH90 (HT-29), the Cougar (HT-27), the Super Puma (HU-21) and the EC135 trainer (HE-26). A few AB-212s also fly in the Canaries. Specialist counts are about 18 Tigres, 17 Chinooks, 17–18 NH90s, 17 Cougars, 15–16 Super Pumas and 16 EC135s.
Is FAMET part of the Spanish Air and Space Force?
No. FAMET belongs to the Army (Ejército de Tierra) and flies only helicopters in support of land forces; the Air and Space Force and the Navy’s air arm have their own helicopters. The three services buy some types together, such as the NH90, and the Army’s Chinooks and Cougars have often deployed alongside Air Force aircraft.
Where are the Spanish Army’s helicopters based?
The headquarters and the Chinook battalion are at Colmenar Viejo, north of Madrid. The Tigres are at Almagro (Ciudad Real), the NH90 battalion at Agoncillo (La Rioja), a manoeuvre battalion at El Copero near Seville, the emergency battalion at Bétera (Valencia) and a battalion at Los Rodeos, Tenerife; there is also a detachment in Melilla.
Did the Spanish Army buy the Airbus H175M?
No. The six H175-based helicopters funded by Royal Decree 848/2025 (programme HACES) are for the Air and Space Force, to replace Ala 48’s Super Pumas and Cougars. FAMET’s share of the 2025 Airbus package is the HELIPO light twin, 45–54 depending on the source (a blog reports 50 H145M), and 13 more NH90s.
What happened to the Spanish Cougar in Afghanistan in 2005?
On 16 August 2005 a FAMET Cougar crashed in western Afghanistan and all 17 Spanish soldiers aboard were killed, the heaviest loss in the force’s history (English Wikipedia’s coalition casualty list; Spanish Wikipedia names the five crew). The sources reached for this page do not establish the cause, so none is given here.
Did FAMET fight in the Spanish Sahara?
Yes. From 1971 to 1975 the helicopter unit UHEL II at El Aaiún flew transport, patrol, observation, artillery adjustment and fire support for the garrison, according to the Army. The last helicopters left on 19 December 1975, after the Madrid Accords. Spanish Wikipedia says two Hueys evaded an SA-7 missile in May 1975; the Army’s summary does not mention it.
When did the Tigre enter Spanish service, and what is the Mk III?
Spain joined the Tiger programme in 2003 and ordered 24; English Wikipedia dates the HAD deliveries from 2007 (the Army’s own BHELA I history has the first three HAP arriving on 14 April 2007 and the first HAD at Almagro on 18 December 2014), while a specialist blog says the first Tigres arrived in 2005. Six early HAP-E were retired around the end of 2020. The 18 HAD-E at Almagro are to be upgraded to Tigre Mk III with France, with deliveries from about 2030.
Which missions abroad has FAMET flown?
The Army lists Kurdistan (1991), Bosnia (1997–2005 and 2007–2008), Albania (1999), Kosovo, Mozambique (2000), Kyrgyzstan (2002–2003), Iraq (2003–2004 and 2018–2024), Afghanistan (2004–2013), Lebanon (2007–2013) and Mali (2021–2022), and before them the Sahara (1971–1975). Since 2025 Tigres and an NH90 have been in Slovakia.
Does FAMET fly drones?
Not as far as the official pages show. The Army’s tactical drones, such as the PASI (an IAI Searcher Mk IIJ), appear on the Army’s equipment pages without being assigned to FAMET. Spanish Wikipedia describes unmanned systems as a future plan for the force.
