The original prototype first flew in August 2013. The H\u00fcrku\u015f-II, also known as the H\u00fcrku\u015f-B, is the military version with a modern glass cockpit, head-up display and multifunction displays laid out to resemble those of the <a href=\"https:\/\/migflug.com\/aircraft\/f-16-fighting-falcon\/\">F-16<\/a>, which makes the step up to fast jets easier for student pilots.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>Power comes from a 1,600 shp Pratt & Whitney Canada PT6A-68T driving a five-bladed propeller, good for a top speed of about 310 knots. Turkey has 55 H\u00fcrku\u015f-IIs on order for its own air force. Earlier H\u00fcrku\u015f variants have been exported to Libya, Niger and Chad.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n<div style=\"background:#f8f9fa;border-left:4px solid #5C91FF;padding:20px 22px;margin:18px 0 24px;font-size:16px;line-height:1.7;display:flex;gap:20px;align-items:flex-start\"><div><em>&ldquo;Deliveries to Azerbaijan will take place very quickly this year, just as they will for our air force.&rdquo;<\/em><div style=\"margin-top:10px;font-size:14px;color:#555\"><strong>Haluk G\u00f6rg\u00fcn<\/strong> &mdash; President of Defence Industries (SSB), T\u00fcrkiye, at ADEX 2026 (via Daily Sabah)<\/div><\/div><\/div>\r\n\r\n\r\n<h2 style=\"padding-top:22px\">A Package, Not Just a Plane<\/h2>\r\n\r\n<p>The trainer order was only one part of the Baku signing. Baykar will supply M\u0131zrak smart loitering munitions and Antidot systems, Roketsan its Barbaros coastal defence system, and Aselsan signed a memorandum of understanding on ALP-100 radars. Further agreements cover academic cooperation, research and logistics, and a preliminary deal between Aselsan and Azerbaijan's NOVASIS on a factory in Nakhchivan.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\" style=\"margin:0 0 24px;width:100%\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"skip-lazy\" data-no-lazy=\"1\" loading=\"eager\" width=\"1024\" src=\"https:\/\/migflug.com\/afterburner\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/4\/2026\/10\/azerbaijan-air-force-su-25-konya-2022.jpg\" alt=\"Azerbaijan Air Force Su-25 at Konya Air Base\" style=\"width:100%;height:auto;max-width:100%;display:block\"><figcaption style=\"font-size:13px;color:#777;text-align:center;margin-top:6px;font-style:italic\">An Azerbaijan Air Force Su-25 at Konya Air Base in Turkey in June 2022.

Its combat fleet has long relied on Soviet-era types such as the Su-25 and MiG-29, and in 2025 Pakistan confirmed the sale of up to 40 <a href=\"https:\/\/migflug.com\/aircraft\/jf-17-thunder\/\">JF-17 Thunder<\/a> Block III fighters to Baku in a deal reported at $4.6 billion. A modern trainer with a fighter-style cockpit is the logical next step in building a new pilot pipeline for those jets.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<h2 style=\"padding-top:22px\">Brothers in Arms<\/h2>\r\n\r\n<p>Turkey and Azerbaijan describe themselves as one nation, two states, and their defence ties have deepened steadily since the 2020 Karabakh war, in which Turkish-built Bayraktar TB2 drones played a prominent role. G\u00f6rg\u00fcn framed the latest contracts the same way, saying the two countries would train their engineers together and that local production and joint projects would strengthen their bonds.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>For TUSA\u015e, the order is a timely export win for a programme that has taken more than a decade to mature. Fourteen aircraft is not a huge number, but in the trainer market every new operator counts, and a delivery inside the same year is the kind of reference that sells the next deal.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n<div style=\"position:relative;padding-bottom:56.25%;height:0;overflow:hidden;margin:24px 0\"><iframe class=\"skip-lazy\" data-no-lazy=\"1\" loading=\"eager\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/KOQs-BD3nng\" style=\"position:absolute;top:0;left:0;width:100%;height:100%;border:0\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/div>\r\n\r\n\r\n<p><em>Sources: Daily Sabah, TRT World, Defence Turkey, Aviation Week, Wikipedia<\/em><\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n<style>.mfq{margin:34px 0 8px}.mfq h2{font:26px\/1.3 \"Gilroy semiBold\",Helvetica,Arial,sans-serif;color:#0d1117;padding-top:22px;margin:0 0 6px}.mfq .qa details{border-top:1px solid #5C91FF;margin:0;padding:0}.mfq .qa details:last-of-type{border-bottom:1px solid #e2e7ee}.mfq .qa summary{cursor:pointer;list-style:none;display:flex;justify-content:space-between;align-items:center;gap:16px;padding:22px 26px;font:18px\/1.7 \"Gilroy semiBold\",Helvetica,Arial,sans-serif;color:#0d1117}.mfq .qa summary::-webkit-details-marker{display:none}.mfq .qa summary::after{content:\"+\";font:24px Helvetica,sans-serif;color:#3568e0;flex:0 0 auto}.mfq .qa details[open] summary::after{content:\"\\2013\"}.mfq .qa details:hover summary{color:#3568e0}.mfq .qa .a{font:16px\/1.7 \"Gilroy regular\",Helvetica,Arial,sans-serif;color:#454e5e;padding:0 26px 24px}.mfq .qa .a a{color:#3568e0}@media(max-width:680px){.mfq .qa summary{padding:18px 14px;font-size:17px}.mfq .qa .a{padding:0 14px 20px}}<\/style>\r\n\r\n\r\n<section class=\"mfq\"><h2>Frequently Asked Questions<\/h2><div class=\"qa\"><details open><summary>How many H\u00fcrku\u015f-II trainers did Azerbaijan order?<\/summary><div class=\"a\">Azerbaijan ordered 14 TAI H\u00fcrku\u015f-II turboprop trainers as part of a defence package worth more than $500 million, signed with Turkey at the ADEX 2026 exhibition in Baku on 30 September 2026.<\/div><\/details><details><summary>When will Azerbaijan receive its H\u00fcrku\u015f-II aircraft?<\/summary><div class=\"a\">Turkey's defence procurement chief Haluk G\u00f6rg\u00fcn said deliveries to Azerbaijan will take place very quickly this year, alongside deliveries to the Turkish Air Force, which received its first H\u00fcrku\u015f-IIs at the end of September 2026.<\/div><\/details><details><summary>What is the TAI H\u00fcrku\u015f-II?<\/summary><div class=\"a\">The H\u00fcrku\u015f-II, also called H\u00fcrku\u015f-B, is the military version of Turkish Aerospace's single-engine, tandem two-seat turboprop trainer.
