That’s a FLIR Pod.

Same thing. Thermal camera is just the layman's term.

Now that I thought about it some more, in light of the austerity measures taken by the Tunisian government, it might not be a good idea to go out and spend $1 billion on any type of fighter jets and wait until things calm down and the economic downturn improves a little bit.

That said, like I was telling Barca earlier in the thread, a small procurement of used F-16s from the US at a severely discounted rate wouldn't be such a bad move but the only problem that would come with that is a heavy list of conditions from the US which would hamper Tunisia's ability to move to another source at a later point. This is what the US excels at doing. F-16s would be fantastic and that platform is here to stay as a workhorse for many AFs for several more decades to come.

Speaking of US equipment, naval patrol boat donated from the US.

in term of our pilots they are training on F16 and other western fighter decades ago it's just part of exchange programs

and about the ships the A701 is old ship and it's training ship used by navy decades ago

TUNIS (Reuters) - Tunisian security forces have killed a top aide of Abu Musab Abdul Wadud, the leader of Al Qaeda in the Islamic Maghreb (AQIM), an official source told Reuters on Saturday.
Tunisia has been on high alert since 2015, when Islamic State gunmen killed dozens of foreign tourists in a museum in the capital, Tunis, and on a beach in the resort city of Sousse.
Algerian Bilel Kobi was “the right arm of Abou Wadoud” and was killed in an ambush near the Algerian border when on a mission to reorganize AQIM’s Tunisian branch following strikes by Tunisian forces against it, the source told Reuters.
Last year Tunisian forces killed Islamist militants including Mourad Chaieb, the Algerian leader of Okba Ibn Nafaa, a group that has fought for years with security forces in Tunisia’s mountainous interior.

Update:
The Interior Ministry said their forces Sunday found the body of another militant killed during Saturday’s operation.
“This terrorist is an Algerian named Bechir Ben Neji and he was the leader of Okba Ibn Nafaa in the Semmama mountain,”

If I didn't know any better, at first site they'd look like either American or Jordanian.

Like someone said... " They look like, out of a JSOC catalog"

What you said is all true basically, I'd just add that they share some resemblance to the French as well

Some nice gear they have there. Supressors on their HK416s it looks like. Nice puppy, too.

Talking about puppies, they've been constantly used lately in Tunisia in counter-terrorism operations in urban areas especially.
