Africa's third-strongest military plans to buy Turkish Aksungur drones
Original: Africa’s 3rd-strongest military set to join Niger, Kyrgyzstan with planned acquisition of Turkish-made TUSAŞ Aksungur combat drones
The country with Africa's third-strongest military is planning to acquire Turkish-made TUSAŞ Aksungur combat drones, a move that would put it alongside Niger and Kyrgyzstan as operators of the unmanned aircraft. The Aksungur is a long-endurance surveillance and strike drone produced by Turkish Aerospace Industries, which has expanded its export footprint across Africa and Central Asia in recent years.
Why now: Growing Turkish drone exports are reshaping military capabilities across Africa and drawing attention to shifting defence partnerships.
