Markus Hahner Appointed as Sales Director for Multi-Role Aircraft

Markus Hahner has been appointed as the Sales Director for Multi-Role Aircraft, bringing with him a distinguished background in defense, security, and international business development.

Markus joins us from Leonardo Germany, where he has served since 2017 in a senior business development capacity. His leadership was instrumental in securing major defence contracts, including a €100 million project involving multinational cooperation. He has consistently demonstrated the ability to navigate complex procurement landscapes and build strong relationships with key stakeholders across the German Ministry of Defence and international partners.

His previous roles include consultancy and leadership positions at German MoD’s in-house consultancy and the first German drone company, serving German Forces, where he contributed to innovation in unmanned aerial systems and defence process optimisation.

In parallel with his professional career, Markus serves as a Lieutenant Colonel (R) in the German Air Force. His ongoing service reflects a deep commitment to national defence, NATO and strategic leadership.

“I am honored to join the team at such a pivotal time,” said Markus Hahner, Sales Director for Special Mission Solutions at Deutsche Aircraft. “I look forward to contributing my experience in defence and international business development to drive growth and strengthen our partnerships across key markets.”

Anastasija Visnakova, VP Sales & Marketing at Deutsche Aircraft, welcomed the appointment, stating, „Markus brings a unique blend of strategic insight and operational expertise. His leadership will be instrumental as we continue to expand our footprint and deliver innovative solutions to our customers.”

With Markus on board, the team is strengthening its capabilities for the D328eco Multi-Role (MR)—a highly versatile platform designed to meet a wide range of operational requirements. His appointment marks a significant step forward in advancing the programme’s strategic positioning and customer engagement.
