Tehran has formed a task force to revive the fleet of Iran Aseman Airlines, in a government-backed intervention aimed at easing aircraft shortages and restoring operational stability at the carrier. The move centres on bringing grounded jets back into service in Tehran, where the airline’s limited fleet has constrained its commercial and operational capacity.
The initiative comes as Iran Aseman faces severe fleet pressure after years of sanctions, maintenance difficulties and reduced aircraft availability. Recent reporting indicated the airline’s operating fleet had shrunk sharply, underscoring the scale of the recovery effort now under way.
The task force is expected to focus on aircraft restoration, maintenance coordination and broader fleet renewal measures, although the full mandate has not been disclosed. Details on membership, the number of aircraft targeted and the timetable for implementation remain unclear.
