Sarp turret upgraded vehicles handed over to TSK.

Sevineyim mi aglayayi mi bilemedim...

Yeah look at this, they use old footage and then write a fairy tale?

Y'all are expecting tracked YNZMA (Next Generation IFV/APC) project to go through? Here we have got you some modernized G-ZPT, G stands for Geliştirilmiş - Improved.

Nevertheless, better than nothing since it seems like we neither going to get wheeled, nor tracked APC/IFV until BMC or MKE makes one, tests it thoroughly and fulfills the requirements to pass the qualification tests. Living the poverty in midst of wealth.

They combined MoD's weekly briefing from today about new GZPT-T1 deliveries with the FNSS video of GZPT-T1. These are under contract and new deliveries are made within that contract every month or so.

"...the inspection and acceptance activities of various quantities of Sarp turreted Enhanced Armored Personnel Carriers have been completed by the Turkish Land Forces Command."

I like that like the ACVs, APC's are also getting upgraded. Even if the YN-ZMA deal is announced finally and serial production starts, it will be years before they are populated enough for the brigades. These lethality, survivability and situational awareness upgrades extend the life of our old ACVs at low costs. Engines of these vehicles are not even changed but rectified. Related costs are very low here, should be less than 300k per vehicle. I believe it was about 340k for ACVs with Nefers. Meanwhile a new YNZMA will cost at least 3-5 million per vehicle.

This may be a stupid question, but can these even surive a mortar dropped from a drone ?

I don't think most armored vehicles can still be operational after being hit by a 60mm HE mortar round dropped from a drone.
