That came on top of an order of 30 TOMAs in May. In 2012, Katmerciler sold only 10 TOMAs to the Turkish government.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">&#8220;<a href=\"http:\/\/www.defensenews.com\/apps\/pbcs.dll\/article?AID=2013306110022\">Unrest in Turkey <\/a>and other countries has made a niche market for companies producing this type of vehicles,&#8221; an industry source said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Katmerciler is owned by Ismail Katmerci, a former lawmaker from the ruling Justice and Development Party.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">After the police extensively used the TOMAs to crack down on Turkey&#8217;s 2013 riots, in which millions of Turks took to the streets to protest what they viewed as anti-democratic government practices, the vehicle gained international fame. Since then, Katmerciler has entered new markets including Brazil and Libya.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Company officials say that images broadcast worldwide of Turkish protesters fleeing the anti-riot water cannon trucks may have helped generate business for the Izmir-based company in nations that face social unrest.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">About 90 percent of the Katmerciler vehicles are exported to 41 countries, according to the company&#8217;s 2012 annual report. Key markets include Iraq, Azerbaijan and Nigeria. Syria, which accounted for about 20 percent of exports before the war, is no longer buying. \u25a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Email:
