In 2009, the US Government agreed to sell an undisclosed number of Super Cobras to help its Nato ally, which has a shortage of combat helicopter.

Currently, the Turkish Army operates six AH-1Ws, which will be increased in 2014 or 2015.

Manufacturing work for the AH-1W Super Cobra helicopters is being carried out by Turkey in cooperation with AgustaWestland.
