TR Defence Exports & Updates

[Sanchez]

South American landing continues.
Apparently a T-625 for El Salvadorian Ministry of Health(which would be the first export success) and Anka-S. Also mentions a possible Ares 53 OPV sale.

With the arrival of a drone with strategic capabilities and the delivery of eleven BMC Vuran armored vehicles to the Armed Forces of El Salvador (FAES), Phase III of the Territorial Control (CTE) security program begins to materialize within the framework of the arms systems contract between the government of Nayib Bukele and the Turkish government of Recep Tayyip Erdoğan signed in early 2022.

The package would include equipment for the police and apparently at least one air ambulance for the Ministry of Health, apparently a T625 helicopter, a model inspected by Bukele during his visit to its factory.

Phase III of the Territorial Control (CTE) taken over in 2018 required, among other things, $46.9 million to acquire ten 10-ton trucks, nine all-terrain mobility vehicles, a helicopter (specifying a B-412), and an ocean-going capabilities vessel.

In addition, the program included other funds for 113 drones with biometric data collection technology, 25 of them for the Army and the rest for the Police. Of these, $1.6 million would be allocated for a surveillance, search and rescue device with naval and ground functions and $1 million for an unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV), along with a Monitoring Center for the Army, in addition to 13 for the Police.

They already got 11 the BMC Vurans for their army? I don't remember seeing this.

With El Salvador on the brink of bankruptcy AFAIK, I don't know how they are planning to pay for all that equipment.

Hopefully with an air/naval base!

Thats not APS , thats just laser to inform you for the incoming missile .
APS system have Radars and lunchers to intercept the missile berofe reaching the tank it work just like mini air defence but on tank .

aren't this can be considered APS but with soft kill measure instead of hard kill one like you're mention ?

 

[BalkanTurk90]

Yes APS have hard and soft measures but as far as i know soft measure is to disrupt or blind enemy anti tank missiles with laser "dazzler" i think are called or of u seen on T80 ,t90 tank 2 big round on both sides of tank gun thay looks like eyes .
So perhaps thats ifrared tech aslo is part of soft measures system but not a big thing and will not protect tank like APS with hard kill measures

By the way, Baykar is not on the list as they do not disclose their revenue figures. If they did, they would roughly be around number 60.

And because they are a private company. They either need to be state owned or publicly traded to get in to the list. Baykar is neither.

Exactly

Pragmatism don't means to hand over your effort of years to a hostile countries but you can sell them to make money

If you look at big picture you'll see that KSA is a hostile countrie and will remain so have to move toward them accordingly

You know why?!!!....bcs they seem Turkey as a potential enemy or rival, you should not strengthen your potential enemy or competitor. Turkey have to move like that.

Which part of manageable and controllable that you do not understand here bruh..

Romania cancelled the tender for 4 Gowind corvettes from France. This is an opportunity for Ada class to gain 4 more orders. Black Sea will be a Ada class lake.

This sale I really would love to be realized, if they start a new procurement tendering. I don’t wanna see France gain any foothold in Black Sea.

 

[TheInsider]

Romania will do as the EU and US commands. Don't be surprised if Romania buys the LCS from the US. Romania bought shitty watchkeeper UAVs to appease Thales&Elbit because Romania also bought TB2 which is a far better drone.

Rooivalk Taarruz Helikopterinde ASELSAN aviyonikleri

Güney Afrikalı Denel şirketi tarafından geliştirilen Rooivalk Taarruz Helikopteri, ASELSAN'ın aviyonik çözümleriyle modernize edilecek.

There was a time when we were asking countries like S Africa to provide us with new attack helicopters our armed forces were in need of. Rooivalk helicopter was one of the contenders before T129 Atak was finally chosen as our new attack helicopter.

Today Aselsan is modernising all avionics of the South African Rooivalk helicopters.
That is a success story that happened under 2 decades. We are so appreciative of our growing defence industry. Well done Aselsan. You make us proud.

Our portfolio is so wide that we can find a solution for every need of all country. Now, 3t utility helicopter will also be added to this heli family and eventually we will become one of the largest helicopter manufacturers and exporter in Europe. When these beasts mature, we will become an actor like Leonardo/Agusta, Skorsky that products are known worldwide.

With the introduction of new engine options within a couple year, TAI now will be called an one of the top company worldwide in rotary wings, with its product range and competence. The hard part is about to pass, and this fact will become apparent much more quickly when the export phase in huge amounts of these systems begins.

 

[Afif]

TAI need to develop dual use light rotary wing platforms like bell 407 series and Airbus H145. (Costing 3-7 millions per aircraft) Which would be more suitable for the needs of developing countries like BD.
Otherwise, I don’t think we could afford T925 (costing 25-30 millions each) in numbers.

 

[Aqerdf]

TAI's upcoming 3t utility helicopter can conduct these missions.

And even fancier stuff..

Would like to see 3T unmanned attack helicopter, as an standalone / MUM-T monster...

Is it possible to put Gokdogan and Bozdogan on Indonesian F16 without getting approval from US?
