The Spanish Ministry of Defence wants to guarantee by money the use of the Real Bardenas Shooting Range. This year they have used the Royal Bardenas four times to do military exercises with real bombs and they want to continue along that path. From January to 2028, the Commission of the Royal Bardenas will receive EUR 14 million each year from the Ministry of Defence, which had so far received EUR 7 million. The rent is what is paid in this way in exchange for the use of 2,244 hectares of the Polígono de Tyre. The area is used between the Spanish Army and NATO for military manoeuvres, according to the same source. This year the current contract ends and will be automatically renewed on 1 January and will be in operation until 31 December 2028.

Spain rules in the Bardenas

The same conditions as for the Army have been maintained for the new contract. The most obvious change is money, which will double the one paid by the Ministry of Defence for the use of the Bardenas Shooting Range each year. In this way, it will increase from EUR 7 million to EUR 14 million. In recent years, many groups have shown themselves against the shooting range. They pointed out, among other things, that this is a protected environmental model.
