General Atomics AeroTec Systems will showcase the brand-new Do228 NXT Demonstrator aircraft at the Farnborough International Airshow (July 20–24, 2026) in Great Britain, marking the aircraft's first presentation on the international stage. This appearance follows the aircraft's official Roll-Out and highly successful public debut at ILA Berlin in June 2026.

Farnborough International Airshow is one of Europe’s leading aviation and defence trade shows, attracting over 100.000 visitors and over 1.400 exhibitiors. The Do228 NXT Demonstrator will be featured in the static display area (D010). For trade visitors, delegations and aviation enthusiasts, this is the first opportunity to visit the aircraft outside of Germany.

The United Kingdom is a familiar territory for the Do228. The aircraft has been in service in the country for over 40 years for a wide variety of operators, including in passenger transport, fishery patrols as well as a test aircraft for hydrogen-electric flying. Now, the new Do228 NXT Demonstrator will also land in the United Kingdom for the first time. The Do228 NXT is the new and modernized version of the classic Dornier 228, featuring an optimized supply chain, a modernized cabin and cockpit, new equipment options, as well as numerous new components, providing customers with a versatile aircraft for specialized missions.
