The second hand AH-1F Cobra attack helicopters Kenya is receiving are coming from Jordan, new information has revealed.
An unidentified source close to the Kenya Air Force told IHS Jane’s Defence Weekly that the AH-1Fs were donated by Jordan, but did not say how many are being transferred.
News of the Kenyan deal first emerged in May when photos emerged on social media of a partially disassembled AH-1 Cobra fuselage in Kenya Air Force Markings and a desert camouflage scheme matching that used by the Kenyan military. The aircraft in the photos lacked its stub wings, main and tail rotors, indicating it was partially disassembled for transport and had just been delivered.
Subsequently, video footage emerged in June of an AH-1 flying at Laikipia Air Base in central Kenya
