From İbrahim Sünnetçi's interview with Aselsan CEO Akyol:

"While flights continue with the MURAD AESA Nose Radar, production is also ongoing. We have already started their production. So there are only optimization issues from now on. And all the important functions have been implemented. Although it depends on the comments and experiences of the end user, we think that MURAD can be operational on fighter jets after 2 years."

"This year we launched the YILDIRIM-100 DIRCM product. It entered NATO trials. For the first time, Turkey participated in NATO trials with its own product in the field of Electronic Warfare Self Protection System. When I say real firing, I mean that there are real demo firings, missiles are fired at NATO(exercises). Only countries that can do DIRCM can participate."

"The ASELFLIR-500 was exported to a fourth country last week. We are only in the third month."

"ASELPOD Targeting Pod was exported to three countries, Pakistan, Nigeria and Iraq. ASELPOD II is currently being worked on."

"For GÖKTÜRK III (Earth Observation Satellite), we will be delivering not only the SAR antenna, but also the complete SAR Payload... We are also making a space-launched version of SAR in different modes and equipped with advanced image processing algorithms. Of course, there is a complete change of discipline that comes with going into space. But in the end, we built SARPER. Now we are exhibiting the SAR pod. We have this technology. Our next goal is to carry this to the space environment and make it suitable for the satellite in terms of scale..."
