That's big. Milrem is probably one of the best companies in UGV sector.

Apparently Aircraft Tow Tractor RAHVAN has a TÜMOSAN Engine. I didn't know that

Initiated in 2010, the RAHVAN project.

The situation of BMC not looking good, what a surpise. Looks like it is going down, also being confirmed by other "insiders" in the industry.

It can't pay its bills. Many engineers have already left the company, majority transfered to Tümosan, and office/administration workers will be let go as the Company can't afford to keep them due to financial problems.

Subcontractors are complaining about unpaid bills by BMC.

Construction of factory in Sakarya wasn't stopped because of problems with the soil(What a suprise, the soil is the first thing that is tested when a new construction site is being evaluated) but because BMC doesn't have the money to continue it.


This is the same company that has gotten contracts without tenders(shady as hell) for thousands of armored vehicles that were never requested. The TSK even bought vehicles by them and transfered it to other countries who paid not a single cent for it all it was paid by the budget of the TSK, which then was published as EXPORT by the company and the government-media, which is illegal btw.

It has gotten the Altay Serial Procuction contract under shady circumstances.

Where did all that money go to?

Now we see why Ethem Sancak readily sold his shares in a company that was acc. to some fanboys on the internet and especially here a rising star. And was gonna deliver us Altay soontm.

Now we know why the company has been kicked of many other programs without any noise it was supposed to be pushed into.

Where is actually Sancak? His son is right now bankrupting a Football club, why not? You can just fly to Qatar just like his father without facing the consequences, well at least they think so. We will see how Qatar reacts to the pressure of the Turkish Government when the time comes.

The AKP government can't protect the company anymore. There is no more money and no more time left. Erdogan is more worried about other things than about saving a yandas company out of thousands.

2023 is just around the corner.

Karma is a bitch ain't it.

I was looking for the Hungarian Acquisition of the Nurol Ejder Yalcin 4x4 named "Gidran".
I came across this interesting article in Hungarian and after Translation it seems like they have received 10 Gidran's until now, with another 40 ordered and intending to purchase 300.

But 1 week ago they also mentioned that Hungary is about to acquire Nurol Yörük 4x4s aswell.

"Another acquisition of armored armor in the finish line"

"In addition to the Ejder Yalcin 4x4 armored military vehicles of Turkish origin, which have been systematized in Hungary under the name Gidrán, another type, the NMS 4x4s, may be finalized and the commissioning process started."

"..The government seemed to have reached an agreement that included the procurement of two types of vehicles, the Ejder Yalcin and the NMS 4x4.
It was possible to conclude this at that time, because in May 2019 both military vehicles were exhibited at Budaörs Airport under any significance without any precedent, but the fact of the procurement agreement only became public in December 2020. As it turned out, the army is planning to systematize more than 300 new 4x4 military vehicles , but to date it is not entirely clear what the exact distribution of the two different vehicle types will be.

Apparently OTOKAR is off to PERU for the SITDEF21 Exhibition.

Vehicles to be presented are ARMA 8x8 and URAL 4x4.

The ARMA 8x8 arrived at the port of Callao, Peru on Sept. 29th

Here is the Official Manifest of the Cargo ship "Meridan"

If the ARMA II is going to be presented like the ARMA I at SITDEF 19 then we can expect a APC variant without a Turret.

SITDEF 19:

Even more important is the Declared Values of the Vehicle in the Manifest.

Gross Vehicle Weight > 25.580 Tons
Price > 2.556 Million USD
