Abstract

This study focuses on Turkey as a rising drone power in the international arena in recent years. In this context, the article will scrutinize the case of the Second Nagorno-Karabakh War, which broke out on September 27, 2020. The Nagorno-Karabakh conflict, one of the frozen problems in the Caucasus region, was ended in favor of Azerbaijan less than two months later. Turkey took on a game-changing role in the region by supplying its ally Azerbaijan with unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) for use in the conflict, and significantly contributed to Azerbaijan’s victory. Turkey’s political, diplomatic, and military contributions to Azerbaijan will likely be discussed on the global agenda for years to come; this study will contribute to the literature on the role and impact of Turkey’s military support, especially its drones, on Azerbaijan’s Nagorno-Karabakh victory.

  8. On the evening of November 9, the conflict suddenly came to an end with the signing of a Russia-brokered peace deal. Although Turkey is not a co-signatory of the agreement, it profited from the deal and is regarded as another winner of the war. A separate agreement was signed between Russian and Turkish defense ministers on a conflict-monitoring center, where unarmed Turkish military members will provide support to their Russian counterparts to observe the implementation of the deal. However, it is not clear whether Turkey will use remote-controlled drones or if Turkish officers will make physical visits to the conflict zone
