Nigeria may buy 12 Embraer A-29 Super Tucanos via the U.S. foreign military sales (FMS) system. The possible sale was submitted to the U.S. Congress last week, and is worth $593 million including weapons, training, spares, support and construction, according to the Defense Security Cooperation Agency (DSCA).
