Expanding Military Industrial Cooperation Across Multiple Sectors
Azerbaijan and Turkey have signed a package of defence agreements worth more than $500 million, expanding military-industrial cooperation across multiple sectors. The agreements, signed during the ADEX 2026 defence exhibition in Baku, include contracts for the delivery of HÜRKUŞ-II aircraft and MIZRAK intelligent loitering munition. Turkish defence manufacturers, such as ASELSAN and Baykar, are participating in the agreements, which also cover radar, electronic warfare, and coastal defence systems. The deals were announced by Haluk Görgün, head of Turkey’s Presidency of Defence Industries, and are expected to deepen the already extensive Turkish-Azerbaijani military partnership, as reported by Unknown Source.
