Qatar: Procurement of Turkey’s KORKUT anti-aircraft gun?note

The extent of military cooperation between the Qatar Ministry of State for Defense Affairs and the Turkish Ministry of National Defense is said to be unknown, as both sides intend on keeping any agreement undisclosed for the moment.

However, there is talk that the Qatari Defense Ministry recently signed an agreement with its Turkish counterpart for the purchase of a 35mm twin-cannon self-propelled anti-aircraft gun (SPAAG) of type KORKUT, produced by Turkish defense companies ASELSAN and FNSS.

Tactical Report has prepared a 277-word report to shed more light on this subject.
