This is what they cite: https://www.globaldefensecorp.com/2025/11/09/azerbaijan-plans-to-purchase-48-gripen-e-f-figther-jets-from-sweden/ I have no idea what this website is (or I do, you can guess the origin when you read the sentence below), but: “Azerbaijan reported that its recently...

That’s true, but the confusion also comes from the word Turkmen and also where Nader Shah was born, so people automatically associate Nader Shah with Central Asian Turkmens, who happen to be Sunni. Yet, Nader Shah’s tribe were relocated from Azerbaijan by Safavids, he was a Qizilbash Shia and...

I don’t want to derail the thread, but Nader Shah was not a Sunni. He was literally a Qizilbash, and his tribe had originally been relocated to Khorasan to specifically stop Sunni Uzbek raids (later replaced by Sunni Turkmen raids, who migrated southward in 17th century).

"Viking" SHORAD. 30mm automatic gun, 12.7mm Canik M2 machine gun, EW (jamming), C-UAS drone. Although it's not specified in the infographic, it also has radars and an EO system. The type of missiles installed is also not specified.

Regarding Aliyev’s statement on Gaza, if you read the entire statement he says that Azerbaijan could theoretically participate in peacekeeping, but not "peace enforcement". Although I think the part about Palestine not helping Azerbaijan is unnecessary and also takes away from the main point.

There are, but I did not notice any new ones. TRLG-230 & Kaplan Akinci

HQ-9BE is the newest export variant. What was offered to Turkey was a less capable system than this (but that was also back in 2010s).

It’s indeed M2 variant as can be seen from the search radar. There is no doubt that these were ordered after 2020 as Azerbaijan never operated Tor before.

There is no real source on Su-35. It’s some random social media talk it seems.

I suppose you have a source?

Nowhere is 64 mentioned. This is also the first time the numbers are officially mentioned, previous ones were only speculations. As for being too much, 1: We don’t know the details, and 2: See the above example of Austria’s M-346FA purchase.

How would Turkey be involved? In what way?

Is that official info? Something tells me it’s just speculation. Let me give you another example. Austria is paying €1 billion for 12 M-346FA, and that aircraft is nowhere near JF-17C Block III. https://www.overtdefense.com/2025/05/29/austria-and-italy-finalize-g2g-deal-for-leonardo-m-346fa-jets/
