On 21 October 2026, the Spanish Army announced in the Boletín Oficial del Estado the auction of 17 lots of decommissioned vehicles and other equipment. The responsible body is the “Junta Secundaria de Enajenaciones y Liquidadora de Material” of the Ejército de Tierra; the tender is being held under file number 2228/0002/26/00/11.
The notice lists reserve prices, inspection dates and procedural deadlines for each lot. The range includes, among others, Lot 5 with a starting price of 1,305.52 euros and Lot 17 at 541,722.75 euros. Based on the individual prices listed in the BOE, the total starting prices amount to around 1.7 to 1.8 million euros. A provisional deposit of 20 per cent of the base price must be lodged for each lot.
Interested parties can inspect the items on working days from 10.00 to 13.00 until 4 November 2026. The deadline for submitting offers is 10.30 on 11 November 2026. The formal opening of the submitted offers is scheduled for 2 December 2026. The location, storage sites and technical details are set out in the “Pliego de Condiciones Particulares”, which is linked in the official notice. Enquiries should be directed to the Junta Secundaria contact points listed in the BOE.
According to the BOE, the sale concerns vehicles and other equipment “como tal”, that is, as physical items with no further guarantees of functionality. The official documents list the classification and condition of the items. Some media reports mention a range from construction machinery to specialist equipment; however, only the descriptions and specifications listed in the tender documents are authoritative.
Auctions of this kind are intended to realise value from Army assets that are no longer needed. They are administratively separate from ongoing procurement programmes and do not, in themselves, indicate anything about future arms projects. The BOE notice of 21 October 2026 is authoritative on deadlines, deposits and participation conditions.
Key details from the official notice: 17 lots, minimum prices ranging from around 1,300 euros to more than 540,000 euros per lot, Inspection until 4 November 2026, Offer deadline: 11 November 2026, offers opened on 2 December 2026. The participation conditions, including the required documents and submission method, are set out in the procedural rules referenced in the BOE.
