SSB and Belarus sign cooperation agreement today.

I don't have high hopes for extensive defense cooperation with Germany or Japan. These are nice photo ops, and one shouldn't expect anything more from them unless German engines are starting to be delivered for AFV's and Japanese tech assistance for various Turkish defense projects. Of course ex-soviet states are more than happy to cooperate.

The problems with Germany and Japan is not directly related with themselves, but American hegamony over them.

Japan doesn't asisst or sale weapons except to help regional issues.
They have recently lifted the arms export ban, and they don't seek to make huge profits with weapon sales too.

So, have they sold weapons, provided ToT?

We are also doing military cooperation with France and Germany on the table or even with Iran or Russia. Have you heard Japan aiding a project in Europe or in any other country?

Japanese companies often been a subcontractor in numerous projects but i haven't heard a direct ToT or know-how transfer as it is expected in the message i replied. We shouldn't expect Japan to directly aid Turkey in development of weapons, but their companies can assist in commercial terms.
Don't expect to get super-duper assistance in critical technologies from Japan. They have recently allowed military items to be exported, it will get them some years to get used to it.
