Lieutenant General Pilot Al-Tahir Mohamed Al-Awad Al-Amin, Commander of the Sudanese Air Force, accompanied by the Commander of Sudanese Air Defense and members of the Sudanese Military Industry Corporation, conducted a visit to Pakistan.<\/p>\n

During the visit, the delegation met with the Pakistani Minister of Defence, the Chief of the Pakistan Air Force, and several senior officials.<\/p>\n

The visit resulted in the Sudanese Army\u2019s Military Industry Corporation signing a defense contract with Pakistan exceeding $1.5 billion, according to ProPakistani, which includes:10 K-8 Karakorum trainer\/light attack aircraft, 20 Shahpar-2 unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs), 150 YIHA-III UAVs, 50 MR-10K UAVs, 50 Ababeel-5 UAVs, Engines for MiG-21 fighter jets, 150 ASV Mohafiz armored vehicles, Air defense systems of types HQ-9 and HQ-6.<\/p>\n

Media reports suggest that the contract is likely financed by a third-party country, given its significant scale. The contract is seen as further evidence that the Sudanese military remains committed to a military solution to the ongoing conflict and has no intention of engaging in negotiations.<\/p>\n

Meanwhile, observers noted that the growing Sudan\u2013Pakistan defense cooperation comes at a time when Pakistan\u2013Turkey relations are also strengthening, particularly in the fields of defense and military manufacturing an important context, considering Turkey\u2019s well-known support for the Sudanese military.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
