A source with the Helicopter Squadron of the 1st Brigada Aérea, based at Ilopango Air Base, told IHS Jane's the air force recently bought three MD Helicopters MD530Fs, to be delivered by early 2017 and deploy to Mali.
As for the UH-1Hs, the air force received an offer from Bell to modernise the 12 platforms to the Huey 2 standard, including spares for those and the Bell 412s, for a total of USD30 million.

Army South hosts Soldiers from El Salvador By Frederick Hoyt U.S. Army South Public Affairs
JOINT BASE SAN ANTONIO-FORT SAM HOUSTON, Texas, Feb. 21, 2018 —
U.S. Army South recently hosted a delegation from the Armed Forces of El Salvador for a series of staff talk steering committee meetings. The delegation from El Salvador was led by Col. Angel Lima.
These annual bilateral talks allow military planners to discuss and prepare a variety of important security cooperation activities in addition to working out the details of future joint engagements and professional military development between the two armies.
After several days of presentations, group discussions and special breakout sessions, participants made recommendations on a variety of subjects of mutual interest and finalized agreed to actions for 2019.
One of the agreed-to actions discussed focused on security forces training with an emphasis on soldiers conducting border security missions. Future planning is also underway to develop unit level training involving infantry units.
These steering committee meetings are in preparation for the 12th annual executive level staff talks between El Salvador and Army South which take place in June.
“These bilateral meetings are very important and will help our Army develop and focus our military tasks in addition to improving our public security against a variety of common threats,” said Col. Angel Lima, Salvadoran Army. “It will also improve our joint efforts and strengthen security across El Salvador and the surrounding regions.”
Some of the topics of discussion included joint military exercises, joint training and professional exchanges and Soldier development. Joint humanitarian assistance and disaster relief efforts were also discussed.
“These engagements are important to our national security and also help to promote a more stable region, said Maj. Jimmy Isakson, U.S. Army South’s Desk Officer for El Salvador. “The crime networks that exist in Central America create regional instability which leads to increased crime and drug trafficking which is something that concerns everyone."
As the Army service component command for U.S. Southern Command, U.S. Army South, on behalf of the Army's chief of staff, conducts staff talks with partner nation armies from El Salvador, Brazil, Chile, Colombia and Peru to foster bilateral partnerships, and discuss ways to counter transnational organized threats.

Le Salvador déploie désormais les deux tiers de flotte de MD 500E au Mali
Six sur neuf! Pas mal pour un petit pays mais sérieux contributeur à la Minusma.
L'armée salvadorienne a déployé en décembre trois hélicoptères de plus au Mali, ce qui porte à 6 le nombre de ses MD 500E engagés au sein de la mission onusienne (photos Minusma).
Cette unité d'hélicoptères de combat est déployée à Tombouctou depuis 2015. Les trois premiers MD 500E forment l'unité Torogo; les trois nouveaux engins constituent l'unité Gavilan qui a pris le relais des Tigre allemands.
Avec les équipages et le personnel de soutien arrivés aussi en décembre, le Salvador engage désormais 200 hommes et femmes (dont une pilote d'hélicoptère, Sandra Hernandez) au Mali.

Cirrus trainers for El Salvador
Recently, the Salvadoran Minister of Defence, Rene Francis Merino Monroy, presided over the handover ceremony of two Cirrus SR22T light aircraft to the Fuerza Aérea Salvadoreña (FAS, Salvadoran Air Force). The two Cirrus’, still wearing their US civil registrations N278AA (c/n 8800) and N694SY (c/n 8696) will be used for training with the Escuela Militar de Aviacion (EMA, military aviation school) at Ilopango, San Salvador. After the retirement of the SOCATA MS893 Rallyes in 2010, the dwindling fleet of ENAER T-35 Pillans took the burden of training future Salvadoran Air Force pilots. Both new training aircraft provide a welcome relief to the strained capacity of the EMA. N278AA had already arrived at Ilopango on 26 October 2022 via Fort Lauderdale (FL) and Cozumel (Mexico) from their US production plant, whereas N694SY had followed via Panama and La Aurora (Guatemala) on 7 November 2022. Between 7 and 9 November, various successful test and familiarisation flights were made from Ilopango in Salvadoran airspace. The official handover ceremony to the FAS took place on 1 December 2022 at Ilopango.

First Cessna 208 for El Salvador
The Fuerza Aérea Salvadoreña (FAS, El Salvador Air Force) has received its first Cessna 208B Grand Caravan EX on 1 November 2023.
This is the first aircraft of an initial requirement for two aircraft, which may be augmented by another pair at a later time. The arrival of the capable Cessna 208B EX is a welcome addition to the limited transport capabilities of the FAS, after the Basler BT-67 stopped flying a few years ago.
This left the small fleet of three IAI202 Aravas to take the burden of El Salvador’s military transport duties. However, the requirement for a larger twin-engine aircraft still exists, and it remains to be seen how this can be fulfilled.
El Salvador GT patchThe new Cessna 208B EX, with serial 700 and named Fenix, has been seen several times on familiarisation flights out of Ilopango air base, San Salvador, during the first two weeks of November. It wore US civil registration as N575FJ before delivery to El Salvador and has construction number 208B5757. The aircraft is operated by the Grupo de Transporte of the FAS.
