Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdoğan recently suggested that Saudi Arabia is interested in purchasing some of his country’s domestically built drones. Why would the Saudi kingdom, which has been at odds with Turkey on many issues in recent years, be interested in the Turkish technology?
When recently criticising a joint drill between Saudi Arabia and Turkey’s rival Greece, Erdoğan revealed that “right now there is a request from Saudi Arabia for armed UAVs (unmanned aerial vehicles) from Turkey. These are the latest developments”.
He did not give any details. His comments did, however, coincide with news that two Saudi manufacturers will begin co-producing the Turkish-built Karayel-SU medium-altitude, long-endurance drone. Riyadh had shown interest in that particular drone since 2017.
