Türkiye and Azerbaijan signed contracts to supply 14 Hürkuş-II trainer aircraft and various defense systems, announced Haluk Görgün, head of Türkiye's Secretariat of Defense Industries.
In a statement, Görgün said the two countries, which support each other during natural disasters, wars and other times of need, were strengthening defense industry cooperation to promote regional peace and stability.
He said their trust and solidarity continued to translate into concrete projects under the leadership of Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdoğan and Azerbaijani President Ilham Aliyev.
The agreements were signed at the Azerbaijan International Defense Exhibition 2026 in Baku to strengthen both countries' defense capabilities, Görgün said.
The package includes procurement contracts with Turkish Aerospace Industries for Hürkuş aircraft, Baykar for Mızrak smart loitering munitions and Antidot systems, and Roketsan for the Barbaros Coastal Defense System.
Aselsan also signed a memorandum of understanding for the supply of ALP-100 radar systems.
"I wish these agreements, with a total value exceeding $500 million, every success for our two brotherly countries," Görgün said.
"Fourteen of our Hürkuş-II aircraft will be delivered to Azerbaijan. Deliveries to Azerbaijan will take place very quickly this year, just as they will for our air force."
Görgün said the countries' longstanding cooperation was also deepening in education and production.
