Only thing i can find is that Levend is the ottoman version of Levent, but i can't confirm it.

It is correct. Names usually end with "d" instead of "t" in Arabic linguistic culture, which affects Ottoman through the alphabetical culture.

 

[No Name]

One thing I would like to know why it is LEVEND and not LEVENT !!!
I can understand that MURAD is the acronym of Milli Uçak RADarı. But what is LEVEND?

While "Levent" is both a name and a title for a sailor or military officer during the Ottoman period, the word "levend" generally carries negative connotations such as "idle, unemployed." Furthermore, "levend" is the Persian form of the word "levent."

It doesn’t sit well with the Arabisation of Turkish names either.

How does the word exist in other Turkic languages? If it is LEVEND, I personally don't mind its use if other Turkic countries adopt it, but if it is solely for the arabization of the Turkish language, then I agree with you.

 

[TheInsider]

It should be Levent, even if it ends with "d" it should be converted to "t" according to the rules of the Turkish language. Murad is different. Murad is short for Milli Uçak RADarı (M-U-RAD). Levend doesn't stand for anything.

 

[Zafer]

I would think of names like code names rather than literal names. Levent is used as a man's name in the modern day and seldom used to mean the marines. Levent is converted to levend when it receives a possessive suffix. I would choose levend over levent as it becomes a distinctive private name rather than a common name. Similar to Kaan instead of Kağan. A stylized name that stands out.

As part of IDEF 2025, the Secretariat of Defence Industries and TAİS Shipyards signed a landmark contract for the procurement of four National Coast Guard Ships, with the participation of Prof. Dr. Haluk Görgün.

These indigenously built vessels will operate across Türkiye’s exclusive economic zones, coastal waters, and high seas—ensuring the protection of national sovereignty and maritime interests through a broad spectrum of missions.

Enforcement of sovereignty rights
Prevention of illicit maritime activity
Deterrence of threats
Search and rescue operations
Continuous surveillance and patrol duties
Protection of marine resources
Humanitarian aid during natural disasters
Robust operational capabilities under challenging sea states

With the first delivery scheduled within 26 months, this initiative marks a critical step toward enhancing Türkiye’s maritime security and operational deterrence.

As BMC POWER;

We signed a 2MW Main Propulsion Engine and Localization Protocol with ISOTTO FRASCHINI MOTORI for the National Coast Guard Ship.
We signed a Development Protocol with İŞBİR Elektrik for an Auxiliary Diesel Generator Set with a Domestic Engine.

At the end end of the day, the Italian are the ones willing to do tech trade. I imagine Baykars deal with Piaggio probably had a big impact on this. Of course government likely had a hand in this deal too.

@Anmdt will the 2MW engine be enough for our the vessels its meant for ?

Now if we can just do one for AW101 helicopters...

I think they're doing the tech transfer because the engine for opv aren't as important compared to uav, and usv that can sink the vessels. So in a way it's a good trade off for them

As part of IDEF 2025, under the participation of our President Prof. Dr. Haluk Görgün, contract ceremonies were held between ROKETSAN and KALE JET Motorları for the “Mass Production Engine Supply for Cruise Missiles”.

The KTJ-3200, KTJ-3700, and KTJ-1750 turbojet engines—set to power platforms like SOM, ATMACA, KARA ATMACA, and ÇAKIR—mark a major milestone in Türkiye’s indigenous propulsion systems development.

The goal is to nationalize core network technologies belonging to fifth-generation communication systems, which will strengthen national security mechanisms, compete in international markets, and securely control data flow. In this context, the ULAK 5G Core Network, comprising Virtual Network Functions (VNF) and Cloud-Native Functions (CNF), has been developed to meet the private network needs of public safety and private institutions, along with IMS and Mission-Critical Services solutions.

5G Core Network

The ULAK 5G Core Network forms the foundational infrastructure of 5G technology and manages all communication traffic. It plays a critical role in realizing the full potential of 5G services. Core networks focus on optimizing performance and reliability in long-distance and large-scale data...

The knowledge and experience gained from 4.5G, along with the significant increase in the number of domestic and national base stations, continue to provide access across Türkiye via 4.5G ULAK base stations. For 5G, products and components compatible with both mobile communication technologies are being developed to harness this strength.

ULAK is also conducting 5G patent development projects in line with global standards. With its strong engineering team and R&D efforts, the company is shaping future technologies and setting new standards. 5G will not only revolutionize communication technologies but also drive changes and advancements in education, healthcare, transportation, and manufacturing.

5G Base Station

The 5th generation mobile network (5G) is defined as a new global wireless standard. It is designed to create a new type of network that connects virtually everyone and everything, including machines, objects, and devices. 5G is a more advanced and unified platform compared to 4.5G. It is...

Great news. I was asking because I imagine PRC has many backdoors in all tech and communication devices it's selling and gather all sorts of information to be used when necessary, or even cause a blackout paralysing nations.

Wrote years ago about this and why it already is not an official program even if its on the side, people then said how it isn't needed and a waste of time and resources. Maybe if they had started when I asked those question we would have something ready in 2-3 years instead of having to wait until the beginning of 2030s.

You would think if I, a nobody on an internet forum, have that foresight people who earn six figures and whose job its to think and plan into the future would have the same thoughts, but alas.

You think those companies have enough engineers for that? Do you know how hard it is to develope an state-of-the-art aviation engine from scratch? Besides they all concentrated on TF-35000. And since that project shows its fruits, they can concentrate on other projects now.

You gonna know better then Aksit now? He was the one who pushed for the project to get started 5-7 years ago already and was shut down by an incompenten government. Think I'm gonna go with the guy who is responsible for this country even having any engines to speak but thanks though.

Türkiye needs way more engineers, physicists, mathematicians etc.

You know better than everyone and you are always right. Love you

Well, if prof. Aksit said it so many years ago and it wasn't done. It's either corruption at government level or because of corruption.

I would have said because of not enough engineers, but if the economy is crap. Then people need to watch out for themselves.
