They will exhibit all their skills in the field and demand accordingly
After the field tests, it will be determined from which company or companies the 3 thousand vehicles needed will be purchased. We ask what it means to make these choices, which were made on paper in the past, this time on the field:
“We are talking about a method that will definitely be very efficient in areas where we have more than one ambitious manufacturer, such as land vehicles. Both the reliability of the tenders will increase, as the offers will not remain on paper, and the results will be seen in advance.
This was first explained at the Land Vehicles Seminar in 2018. An official from one of our producers who spoke at the seminar said, “We are satisfied with the competition procedure. This is how we get all our tenders abroad.' He showed his satisfaction and stated that they were confident in themselves.
Normally, because the tenders were on paper and many products were developed specifically for the tenders, the outputs could not meet the requirements completely. In other words, the firm sets high targets when making the offer, and some issues may not be at the desired level after the contract is signed. The competition method will be a major factor in minimizing this risk.”
The best will win The positions of
BMC, FNSS and Otokar in the fairground are very close to each other. With Fatih Mehmet Küçük, we are walking towards a place where we can see them all from a wide angle. Meanwhile, he continues to convey some details about the competition.
For example, we learn that the vehicle turrets in the ZMA configuration will be the 35 mm KORHAN turret developed by
ASELSAN . Therefore, companies will only compete with their platforms. Many factors such as the strength of these vehicles, which are similar to each other in terms of weight and dimensions, maintenance and repair costs, and user convenience, will be examined.
We see candidates with 8x8 wheels at the fair… BMC's Altuğ, FNSS's PARS and Otokar's Arma are before us. Küçük says that all three models are equipped with highly advanced systems and are not inferior to their competitors in the world. Underlining that one of the most important points here is the cost, he said, “There are also heavier vehicles with different features in the world. However, they are produced in extremely limited numbers due to their astronomical cost. The important thing is to achieve the balance of cost and effect with optimum designs. Our companies do this very well,” he says.
