Lurker4Long:
A month or 2 ago I said Tunisia -based on what my Turkish friends in the industry were saying - and you still mentioned the rejected Cobras.
A Turkish banker friend says his bank worked on the financing and the client is Tunisia.

your friend do know exactly what for the loan ? because what I know the anka's deal is financed by the loan but I don't know about the armored vehicle ... is the loan going also to otokar because that would be interesting.

but havt found the original source

it might be Tunisia since there's a armored vehicle deal along with the Ankas but still, the armed forces refused to purchase the cobras why going for them again ? hmm.

shadowprimezero:
The news was discredited by Otokar itself that Uganda was not the client. The client still remains unknown

During the parliament's Armed Forces' Affairs Committee hearing, the MoD detailed some interesting figures concerning the work of the TAF during 2020, its budget, spending and some of its future plans.
The budget of the MoD for 2021 is set at 3440 Billion dinars (roughly 1.25 Billion dollars), a 6.4% increase compared to 2019, the budget is projected to reach 3509 Billion dinars by 2022 and 3605 Billion dinars by 2023.
Regarding the new acquisitions:
The MoD spent 72 million dollars to purchase new armed UAVs, an additional 40 million euros went to acquire 4 new radars, one long range, two medium range and a tactical short range radar.
140 million dollars were allocated to buy 8 new advanced training aircraft
117 million dinars will be spent on modernizing and ameliorating combat uniforms
83 trucks, 148 "fighting vehicles", tactical radio networks, assault rifles and personal equipment will be purchased
2 Patrol boats will be locally manufactured in partnership with a private naval construction company.
The MoD also received a Turkish aid of 17 million dollars to purchase Turkish military equipment, China suggested as well 21 million dinars to buy Chinese made equipment.

Tunisian army peace keeping missions: in addition the current mission in Mali with MINUSMA, the MoD dispatched an 850 strong quick reaction force and a military police company that will soon serve in an African nation.
The MoD will also participate in MINUSCA Providing three helicopters, 120 troops (pilots, technicians and others) and a team of SOFs.

Tunisian army's infantry are slowly but surely transitioning out of Steyr aug and to make the M4 their standard rifle.

Lurker4Long:
Apparently they tested both cobra 1 and Cobra II. It's the Cobra 1 they rejected. My money is still on Tunisia. Anyway, we'll know soon enough.

both cobra 1 and 2 got rejected and they went for the Ejder they tested the three of them at the same time (also they tested the French sherpa and Emirati Nemr)

kabe1:
Tunisia is the likely destination. They have Otokar Cobra's in service and use a lot of Turkish ground vehicles.

actually no I don't think its Tunisia because they don't have the cobra in service they only tested it and acquired the Ejder instead

America is not world super power like they make the world believe. They are super bully. How do you launch a missile on a defenceless man without warning? Iran should ally with North Korea. Trump fears that boy. Makes him pee in his pants

umm what this have to do with the Tunisian president ?

Raalsalghul:
Are you still wondering?

It is cursed or whatever synonyms you can use in place of "cursed".

All these folks shouting "Africa is blessed" should name 3 African countries qualified to be called "Second World".

Even countries like Tunisia, Egypt, Libya, Algeria, Morocco preferred to be called Arabs than Africans.

What has the Black Race contributed to Humanity?

The only thing Sub- saharan Africa is synonymous with are Hunger, Poverty, Tyranny, Underdevelopment, War, Child Soldiers, Ethnic War, Tribal Clashes, Corruption etc.

In as much as I hope to leave this atmosphere one day, I swear I would tighten immigration policies to prevent entry of Africans if I'm a white leader.

Tunisia, Egypt, Libya, Algeria, Morocco are African nations choosing to be called Arabs does not change that , Africans should know that Africa is a continent , not a race , not a country and not a region , it is a continent with different races regions countries that does not have to look a like or even cooperate . jeez no one is hearing Asian peoples calling Indians not Asians
