Some info to get the thread started off.
- During a joint press conference with Turkey's Prime Minister Recep Tayyip Erdogan in Istanbul, Zeidan said Libya was looking to buy 20,000 military uniforms and 20,000 weapons of various types from Turkey. "We have reached a preliminary consensus with Turkey on the purchase of the above-mentioned arms," he said.
- Libya was interested in buying Turkish assault boats for its coastguard and his country also requires helicopters. (On 3 January 2013, the Libyan delegation visited the facilities of Turkish Aerospace Industries (TAI) in Ankara and inspected the T129 attack helicopter)
- Around 1,000 Libyan soldiers trained in late 2013 at the Egirdir Mountain Commando School in Isparta province in southwestern Turkey. Another 2,000 will be training in Isparta under an earlier agreement. "Turkey is the most suitable place for the training of our security forces," Zeidan said.
- Libyan armed forces are reportedly in touch with Turkey's Otokar for the purchase of an unspecified number of Arma and Cobra armoured vehicles.
- In terms of a defence and security co-operation agreement signed between the two government in April 2012, Turkey will train nearly 3 000 Libyan troops in line with a EU-led mission to rebuild the Libyan Army and strengthen national defence and security institutions
- Commander Mustafa al-Majbri, who is responsible for communication in the NTC (National Transitional Council), and Commander Ibrahim al-Brigti, were pleased with the training by former Turkish special ops officers in Benghazi. Around 3,000 members of the Libyan opposition's military force, including those who are in volunteer groups affiliated with the al-Majbri tribe, were reportedly trained by the Turks.
