It's neither, the outfit is comprised of nothing more than slightly re-meshed and re-textured pieces of in-game fur, leather, iron and orcish armors. The mod is going on the idea that Mongolians typically wear crude articles of animal pelts, sun cured hides, and bits of metal stitched together as armor.
While this maybe true to an extent, the suit itself is no more "Mongolian" nor "Turkic" in representation, or semblance, than that of each singular component that it drew it's form from, of which they weren't done in either the mongolian/turkic design in the first place.
Yes im writing this after 8 years. It is truly ridiculous and shameful that you think that the Turks are just "Ottomans", and the fact that you think that the Ottomans are "a little arabic" shows how ignorant you are. I'm not going to give you a history lesson in this dead post section after 8 years because you won't listen to me anyway. Please research Turkic history. And have a nice day!
Mongol eh? There's this common sense thing called 'research' that would make this armor authentic or maybe watch Metatron videos as he does cover cultural forms of medieval wear and what not. I'm seeing remeshed armor that makes the question the authenticity of this mod.
Their helmets for one looked similar to germanic crusader knight helms when I looked at pictures and those helms were connected to what looked like furry hoods with maybe that top fur on top of the helmet spike. Their armor seemed a poor mimic of song armor with a samurai-ish chest that did have that button looking thing down center. Their swords from what I researched looked closer to a bit of arabic twist on a katana, maybe they had scimitars, ask a real mongolian on that but yet also the bows are central as much as the swords. I daresay the arabian looking katanas were the only katanas that I know that were combined with shields and I believe their shields might have influenced the early Viking shields. Their shoes definitely by appearance had a strong Eskimo influence in their design but overall I did some research that shows this.

Good armor, but not really what it claims it is.
