Iraq will buy armed drones, helicopters and electronic defence systems from Turkey.
Iraqi Defense Minister Cuma Inad Sadun said in a TV program that his country agreed to buy an undisclosed number of Bayraktar TB2 armed drones, 12 Atak helicopters and 6 electronic defence systems. Sadun had paid a visit to his Turkish counterpart last week.
Besides being the eighth user of Bayraktar drones, Iraq will also be the fourth customer of Atak helicopters.
