The most delayed project in our defense industry was Altay, but I am absolutely happy with this delay. Since Altay project start we saw a lot of battle and we learn lessons from them in this way we upgrade our MBT according to new threats. But regarding tank ammunition I have only heard of the Tanok and HE-T projects which Turkey is very deficient.... our armour penetrating capability is low as i know especiallly considering MKE sabot ammunutions, Is there any ongoing projects regarding 120 mm or 105 mm ?well that is how it is, possibly better logistics
Too much shit on the turret. No rear/up coverage for aps?"Our work on ALTAY continues. Only the work on the power group continues. There is no other problem. A total of 250 ALTAY units will be supplied. We will produce 85 of them with Korean powerpack and 165 with our own power group."
