as much as I love tb2 and wish all best for baykar , I hope the tb2 Ethiopia deal negotiation ends . the ethiopian regime are killers and their army are bunch of rapist . on this case , ethical value is higher than money .

i think they are referring to ATMACA , i am not aware of any other Turkish origin Anti-ship missile in development.
i hope this deal materialises

There are actually 2,3 or 4 more. 1 of them is the mediuim range turbojet powered, the one publicly known the other one is Atmaca Block-II. Also SAGE's kuzgun variants will have anti-ship capabilities.
It is Atmaca, there was a delagation in live fire exercise.

Don't know much about Ethiopia vs Tigray. But what about the ethical value of certain nations who play constantly the divide and rule principles in African countries?

With 99.99% certainty, Turkey has already delivered many TB2s to Ethiopia. Plenty of satellite imageries and used MAM-L munition parts confirm that. The drones have already turned the tide of the war for the central government. I know that the Ethiopians did despicable things in Tigray but tbh they are both equally bad. Tigray people are a minority which has been brutally ruling the rest of Ethiopia for decades, now that the time for relinquishing power has come they refuse and started a civil war.

Ethiopia is a key ally of Turkey in the region. Turkey will continue supporting the government going forward.

Hope we got the Koral system even if this news will most likely not be verified for some time. The news about koral keep being mentioned in news. This time on forbes...

It reportedly ordered an undisclosed number of mobile KORAL electronic warfare systems from Turkey for $50.7 million – likely the same export agreement the Turkish press reported KORAL manufacturer Aselsan signing for the same amount to "an international client" last June.

Bayraktars And Harops: Is Morocco A Rising Drone Power?

It appears that Rabat may be taking a page out of Azerbaijan's book by buying both these unmanned systems.

Iraq orders Bayraktar TB2S

8 TB-2S (+4 Options)

Early November 2021, Iraq signed a contract for the delivery of eight Bayraktar TB2S Medium-Altitude Long-Endurance Unmanned Combat Aerial Systems (MALE-UCAS), including three Ground Control Stations, armament, and training. The formality of the contract signing follows negotiations and formal meetings dating back to 2020. The contract also mentions the option on four additional Bayrakta TB2S.

Later that month, the Iraqi Defense Minister, who was a guest on a programme of the Iraqi privately owned satellite channel Al Sharqiya, announced that an agreement was reached for the purchase of the Bayraktar TB2S UCAS plus twelve Turkish Aerospace Industries (TAI) T129B ATAK helicopters and six ASELSAN KORAL land-based radar electronic warfare systems. The T129B sale needs to be approved by the US Congress because it contains technology that is under strict export regulations. The sale of 30 T129Bs to Pakistan is still blocked by the US while the sale of six T129Bs to the Philippines has been approved and are due for delivery. For this moment, only the contract for the Bayraktar has been formally signed.

Any reason why the moroccan map is cut in half?

Gambia or Senegal

The planes landed in Gambia, see my last link where it shows the air-crafts at Banjul, Gambia.

Keep in mind that this transport does not automatically mean that it was a delivery of TB2. It could have been humanitarian aid for COVID (Vaccine, respirators, masks, hospital beds, ...) . It is possible that it was also military personal transport for aiding Gambian military/police training.

The only thing we know for sure is that there seem to be an ongoing civilian/military corporation between Turkey and Gambia in line with Turkeys goal of strenghtening our relations and economies based on mutual benefit.

The Turkish Air Force A400 flights to The Gambia yesterday was to airlift a 3rd batch of 250 Gambian military QRF personnel for pre deployment training in Turkey, this is in anticipation to future U.N tasks. However it was not only one aircraft so who knows if turkey also exported tb2.
