Let’s remind that JF-17C fighters Azerbaijan has acquired From Pakistan.

And on October 20, 2025, in the analysis of one of the Azerbaijani media, it was noted that taking into account the strategic relations between Pakistan-Azerbaijan-Turkey, it is possible that the Turkish air-to-air Gökdoğan and Bozdoğan missiles, which are still under evaluation, will be integrated into the fighters in the future.

168.amthe had written  that the 2020 war marked the beginning of the Turkey-Azerbaijan-Pakistan geopolitical project, which later had confirmed Prime Minister of Pakistan. However, as we have noticed, Pakistan took part in the 44-day war of 2020 based on its relations with Turkey, and only after the 44-day war, Azerbaijan-Pakistan bilateral strategic relations were established.

By the way, today to the President of RA by decree Karen Grigoryan, Ambassador Extraordinary and Plenipotentiary of the Republic of Armenia to the United Arab Emirates, has been appointed Ambassador Extraordinary and Plenipotentiary of the Republic of Armenia to the Islamic Republic of Pakistan (residence: Abu Dhabi). But we will address the political and military-political side of this separately.

Let’s go back to the Azerbaijani military exercise and add that L-39 czech is a production aircraft, the Su-25 is a Russian attack aircraft, and the Su-25ML is its upgraded version.

Earlier we wrotethat Azerbaijan is modernizing the Su-25s in its arsenal with the help of leading Turkish defense companies. Moreover, we have informed, that the Azerbaijani attackers were armed with Turkish SOM ŞAHİN cruise missiles, the flight range of which is more than 250 km.

Are the Su-25s in the arsenal of the RA army modernized? The answer is in the footage related to the May 28 military parade.

In this context, let us remind that on August 24, 2020, the Ministry of Defense to report was that a contract for the modernization and repair of the Su-25 was signed between the RA Defense Ministry and the United Aircraft Construction Company of Russia.

We have repeatedly tried to get information about this contract and the modernization of Su-25s from the Ministry of Defense of the Republic of Armenia, but they refused, referring to the legal regulations on state and military secrets.
