Well, actually the first squadron of VT-5 light tank will be delivered in June. He didn't say anything specific about TRG-300. Only said we will get it this year.

Can you kindly summarize basic points in English ?

 

[Combat-Master]

230mm and 300mm MLRS systems along with TRG-230 and TRG-300 (Tiger) missiles will be delivered to Bangladesh Armed Forces in 2021 Q2.

Thus, Bangladesh will have very precise strike capability at the range of 20-120 km.

They need to purchase some TB2s with it to make the most out of them..

Can you kindly summarize basic points in English ?

• Air Defence Missile -"Deliveries will be made this year of SUNGUR and HİSAR A +. Our journey to upper levels has begun. SİPER's work continues."
• Space -"We established the DeltaV company and it continues on its way as a Defense Industry Presidency company. We have Space Agency on our space travel. The companies within us will form the basic technologies in this journey."
• Unmanned Vehicles - "We have both surface and submarine works in Unmanned Marine Vehicles. We organize competitions in this field and we are assertive. We will show our capabilities in this field in the coming years."
• Engine - "1000hp engine is currently in testing, in the coming days BATU 1500hp will be fired up"

Most probably this is the main reason that they didn't acquire TRLG-230 (laser guided version of the TRG-230).

Still, precision weapons such as the TRG-230 and TRG-300 are only as good as the coordinates given to them. I don't see them being so useful, except for static infrastructure and less so for TRG-230 with the smaller warhead. They should of imo gone for a strike package, TB2, MAM-L, TRLG-230 and TRG-300.

So it can fire three types of missile? What's the point of getting TRG-230 when Block 2 missile is better than it?

Army is buying both MALE UAV and UCAV and laser range finder. They already has Bramor C4EYE. It will also get Wasp UAS.

The armored vehicle Ejder Yalcin 4x4, developed within the Turkish defense industry, adds new contract to its export success. Yalcin 4x4, where the ability to have high protection in conventional and asymmetric operational environment, meets with superior mobility and payload carrying capacity and the needs of Turkey and other countries. The vehicle has more than 10 different configurations and these vehicles are preferred by many countries in the Middle East, Gulf, Asia, Africa and Europe regions.

Increasing the number of users in the United Nations Peacekeeping Forces, Yalcin 4x4 succeeded in protecting its personnel against threats and attacks in the Sahel Region. Thus, the vehicle succeeded in being the only Turkish vehicle used in both NATO and United Nations missions. Ejder Yalçın 4x4, which increased the confidence of the users in itself, received the answer with increasing demand. Nurol Makina signed a contract with a new user this year to be used in the United Nations Peacekeeping Force.

Türk zırhlısı Ejder Yalçın 4x4 artık bir dünya markası

Orta Doğu, Körfez, Asya, Afrika ve Avrupa'da birçok ülkenin kullandığı Ejder Yalçın, hem NATO hem de Birleşmiş Milletler görevlerinde yararlanılan tek Türk aracı olma başarısını yakaladı. - Anadolu Ajansı

US policy so far:
As long as it hurts the Turks, it doesn't matter whom it benefits. (See Syria, Libya etc.)

This could not be solely to lecture Turkey, (however, it is such for Atak export to Philippines)
But if they are not offering something else to Pakistan, like Cobra, then it is definitely to lecture Pakistan.

General Manager of Makine Kimya Endüstrisi Kurumu (MKE), Yasin Akdere stated that they are working on 84 R&D projects with a total budget of 530 million TL, 11 of these projects are contracted and 73 of them are carried out as equity.

“We have realized the production of energetic materials that our country needs with 100 percent national technology and domestic capital. With this production facility we have realized, we have eliminated foreign dependence on critical chemicals called RDX, HMX, CXM, which are used in aircraft bombs, rockets and artillery ammunition, ”he said.
