Turkiye | Arms imports (SIPRI trend indicator values)

The Arms Imports (SIPRI Trend Indicator Values) is an indicator developed by the Stockholm International Peace Research Institute (SIPRI) to measure the volume of international arms imports. It encompasses purchases, aid, and transfers through manufacturing licenses for major conventional weapons, including aircraft, armored vehicles, artillery, radar systems, missiles, and military-use ships. This indicator excludes small arms, light weapons, trucks, small artillery, ammunition, support equipment, technology transfers, and services. Values are expressed in SIPRI Trend Indicator Values (TIVs) in US dollars (US$ million), with a '0' indicating that the value of imports is less than US$0.5 million. The chart displays the values of arms imports for Turkey in US dollars (US$ million) over a 23-year period, from 2000 to 2022.
