Moreover, a crucial step was taken towards the local production of the armor steel used in the tactical wheeled armored vehicles. According to the information received, the production of indigenous armor steel with an annual capacity of 13,000 tons will be launched at the new factory/facility named as MİLUX OY, which will start its activities in Manisa as part of Erdemir as of July 2019. The production capacity is planned to be increased to 20,000 tons annually after the year 2020. The raw material of the flat steel to be manufactured and processed at MİLUX OY facilities will be supplied from Erdemir and the production technology will be transferred from the MİLUX Company purchased from Finland by OYAK. The initial armor steel sheet metal samples were displayed played at the company’s stand during IDEF’ 19.
