ELVO assembles Leo2. You buy something from IKEA come home and assemble it. BMC will produce Altay. This is inherently different from assembling. Most of the subsystems will come from other providers but there are also things BMC will produce.

We are on our way to a similar capability with TRG-230, TRG-122, TRLG-230, and TRLG-122 missiles. TRG missiles(GPS/INS) will be integrated into the UAVs and fighters in the first phase, TRLG (added laser guidance) will be integrated into the UAVs and fighters in the second phase of the project.

Leo2A4 upgrade project(LeoTay) isn't progressing because BMC has no capability to produce the Altay turret. BMC is working hard on gaining that capability.

With 2x 225HP PD-222 engines i think this bird can lift 1000kg payload.

The total defense budget of Türkiye is roughly around 25 billion $ when you add defense industry support fund(SSDF) and various R&D funds.

This is simply not true. The powerpack is not the only problem. BMC has no tank and tracked vehicle production or tracked vehicle upgrade capability in general. There are a dozen MTU powerpacks available but BMC can't produce the tank. Leopard modernization offer was a joke BMC welded Altay...

The project is still at the hands of BMC. If nothing happens in a week or two maybe in a month expect the project to stay at BMC.

It will guarantee that the integration of the Korean powerpack can be completed without further delays. There is no guarantee that BMC can successfully integrate the Korean powerpack and complete all tests on Altay with success to fully qualify the product. If the Korean powerpack integration...

AL-9500F is probably designed and shelved waiting for foreign financing because Ukraine has no money to finance that program.

When a +18 tape spreads on social media the first question to be asked is who released that tape, who benefits from it, and for what purpose it is released?

I brought big news about BMC and Ethem Sancak. Qatari shareholders complained to Erdogan about Ethem Sancak and Talip Öztürk and they have good reasons to complain. Erdogan phoned Ethem and swore at his face after he was told that Altay tank with a fully qualified Turkish powerpack (engine and...

Yes, but they are under the command of the UN.

It is going on without a problem. Roketsan is responsible for the warhead and tests of the control system. The project was supposed to finish in 2014 but saw massive delays due to Germany and will be finished in 2022.

No foreign license on anything regarding ecotorq series of products.

Yes but if somehow things get calmer ecotorq engine and transmission might find their way for 4x4 armored vehicles. Especially for patrol and recon variants. Ecotorq engine has 3 variants 330 PS (325 HP), 420 PS (414 HP), 480 PS (473 HP). Ecotorq series of engines completely satisfy Euro 6...
