TR Defence Exports & Updates

[Iskander]

Egypt, Azerbaijan, and Spain probably?

Only a few countries produce combat trainers. The American ones are clearly outdated. Nobody is interested in the Russian ones. Although the Italian ones are in favor today, it seems to me that the Hurjet will be bought like hot cakes

 

[Saithan]

It is fucking dumb to make contracts with countries where you can't deliver due to US embargo. Expecting approval for Export is even more dumb unless they're western like Spain.

I'd hope to think they've learned their lesson and don't overpromise now. Nigerian T129 sale went swimmingly, even though AH-1Z was a direct competitor, even if they opted to buy both in the end.

Only possible customer that could have a problem with US engines is Azerbaijan.

 

[OPTIMUS]

If the Turks finally stop supplying Europe with gas, all of them are likely to have engines of American origin.

Military actions and decisions point to political goals. What will Turkish policymakers be able to see in the big picture?

 

[Huelague]

Erdogan told we have made some significant contracts on SAHA expo…

SATCOM ON THE MOVE (SOTM) CAPABILITY​

Military forces and government rely on robust, secure and jamming resistant communications capabilities with a low probability of Interception in friendly and hostile environments.
Similar communication capabilities are needed for government operations during emergencies, natural disasters and hazardous conditions.
CTech’s SecureARX Modem is intended for military and government applications, and can satisfy all the requirements for fixed, land-mobile, naval and airborne SATCOM use cases and scenarios.
It is the most spectrum efficient and secure high speed SATCOM modem solution available in the market, today.
By using a mix of fixed, transportable and on-the-move terminals at the same time, reliable, flexible, survivable and secure networks can easily be established, managed and operated under extreme circumstances.
CTech’s SecureARX Modem is a world class SATCOM modem solution available for military, government and official applications.
It is compatible with NATO standards, however national waveforms can easily be implemented on the same flexible design platform.
Maintenance and upgrades can easily be performed by SW/FW changes.
CTech’s proprietary management system provides users with flexible planning, control and monitoring tools while sustaining end-to-end secure and reliable communication links and networks.

Turkish company changed NATO's unchanging preference: • CTech won the tender for the protection of NATO's military satellite communications infrastructure against a manufacturer that had been doing this job as a sole source for years • CTech General Manager Cüneyd Fırat: • CTech has taken a seat in NATO's eyes on a very important product that a very large competitor has been sitting in for years. • We are talking about a job worth tens of millions of dollars. Hundreds of products will be delivered. These will be installed at various NATO stations. The job has a duration of approximately 3 years.

From inland seas to open seas and oceans: • The R&D work that started in 2006 for the need for secure satellite communication resistant to electronic jamming turned into a product, entered the inventory, and achieved export success. • CTech's SecureARX Secure Satellite Communication Systems joins the Turkish defense industry products exported to NATO • CTech General Manager Cüneyd Fırat: • Our country has many products and technologies that it can offer to NATO and the world. • CTech satellite systems are actively used in 4 countries, new countries will join. There are very important opportunities • NATO is a very important reference all over the world. • This success will create a multiplier effect in terms of technology and trade.

Does anyone have a good guess about what our defense exports will amount to by the end of 2024? Last year, it was 5.5 billion dollars, and 4.3 billion dollars in 2022. The target is 10 billion dollars, but it seems like we are not going to achieve that target this year either.

Correct me if I’m wrong, but as I understand it, this year's exports were around $5-6 billion as of a month or two ago. With $4.3 billion in export contracts signed at the SAHA Expo, we may reach the $10 billion threshold for exports this year.

Probably no. There is also very successful T-50, and American T-7 is coming in few years. With hundreds of orders already present on T-7, they will decrease the cost of the plane significantly, also they can always refuse to sell F-404 engines to us if we are contenting against them in a bid.

I think the date the deal signed is not considered the export but rather the date export was realized
