BMC made a remote controlled 4x4
What kind of news do you mean?any news about aselsan korhan?
I guess you could say...they mbombed outEven though the S.Africans came up with the MRAP concept - they don't make decent vehicles it seems
While I have great respect for Tümosan on their contribution to Turkey and Farmers etc. And love them for the engine they developed to the defence industry. I wonder why they decided to go into the business of producing ACV.Tümosan Representative at IDEF about Pusat.
Pusat isn't just 1 type of Vehicle but rather a Family of Vehicles.

Could it be related to the post about domestic engines being used in the vehicles to be delivered in 2022?Something seems to be going quite wrong with Land Vehicle Programs in the hands of FNSS.
Don't get me wrong, I am by no means an Expert but the given Dates cannot be achieved it seems.

The Infos on the Program are Sparse but no real Delivery in sight. with Changing Prototypes.

"According to the 2019 contract, FNSS and PT Pindad must jointly produce a batch of 18 tanks.
The first Kaplan is ready, and all of the remaining ones are at various stages of construction. It is reported that the two manufacturers will complete the assembly of the first batch of equipment by the end of this year.
During IDEF-2021, plans for the near future were announced.
So, a second order for 52 tanks should appear soon. They should be built and handed over during 2022."
Here we have no Information as well on the Current Status of the Kaplan for set delivered untile the end of 2021 and they are supposed to built 52 in 2022.

Even here the Serial Production started quite late for my thinking.
FNSS General Manager and CEO K. Nail KURT said, “Our Weapons Carrier Vehicles contract, signed between the Presidency of Defense Industry and our Company in June 2016, for the KAPLAN STA vehicles offered to the use of the security forces after the qualification tests were completed in accordance with the project schedule. It includes a total of 260 vehicles
The Serial Production Deliveries Started in 04/2020.
Almost 4 Years after Contract signing. Isn't this a simple 2x ATGM Carrier or am I missing something.
I have no Idea if I am overthinking or if there is a problem here.
This is not related to FNSS."According to the 2019 contract, FNSS and PT Pindad must jointly produce a batch of 18 tanks.

This one is likely delayed because the requirements have changed on the go, or Army has requested a review of certain things. 2 prototypes were different from each other.- FNSS ACV-15 Modernization

This one, i am not sure if they have signed the final contract but there is definitely a delay on the completion of the qualification tests. TCG Anadolu was delayed as well so probably Navy was cool.- FNSS ZAHA
