    Azerbaijan and Turkey have signed an agreement on the joint production
    of reactive rockets, a source in the Azerbaijani Defense Industry
    Ministry told Trend on Monday. Azerbaijani Defense Industry Minister
    Yaver Jamalov and Turkish Defense Minister Vecdi Gonul signed the
    relevant document in the framework of the international exhibition
    "IDEX -2011" in Abu Dhabi.

    According to the document, the Azerbaijani ministry and the Turkish
    company ROKETSAN will begin the production of 107- and 120-millimeter
    reactive-propelled missiles.

    Earlier Defense Industry Minister Yaver Jamalov said Azerbaijan has
    increased its military production 3.6- fold this year as compared
    with last year. The country's military production has registered a
    115-fold increase since 2006.

    "The country is no longer dependent on import of ammunition," he said.

    The Azerbaijani Parliament approved the country's 2011 budget. Next
    year the Azerbaijani Ministry of Defense is to receive U.S. $3.1
    billion.
