    TURKEY AEROSPACE & DEFENSE 2016 AEROSPACE TURKEY TURKEY AEROSPACE & DEFENSE 2016 Aerospace - Defense - Original Equipment Manufacturers Platforms - Clusters - Multinationals - Sub-Tier Suppliers Distinguished GBR Readers, Since the inception of the Undersecretariat for Defense Industries 30 years ago, significant steps have been taken to achieve the goals of having the Turkish armed forces equipped with modern systems and technologies and promoting the development of the Turkish defense industry. In the last decade alone, the aerospace and defense (A&D) sector's total turnover quadrupled, while exports have increased fivefold, reaching $5.1 billion and $1.65 billion in 2014, respectively. The industry's investment in research and development (R&D) reached almost $1 billion in 2014. The total workforce in the A&D industry reached 30,000 personnel, of which 30% are engineers. Even more remarkable, Turkey is now at the stage of offering its own platforms for both the local market and to international allies, and has commenced a series of follow up local programs. Although this progress has been achieved under the circumstances of a healthy and consistent political environment and in parallel with sustained growth in the Turkish economy, the proportion of expenditure for defense in the national budget and as a percentage of Turkey’s GDP has been stable. With the help of the national, multinational and joint defense industry projects that have been undertaken in Turkey by the undersecretariat, the defense industry has become a highly capable community comprising large-scale main contractors, numerous sub- system manufacturers, small- and medium-sized enterprises, R&D companies who are involved in high-tech, niche areas, research institutes, and universities.

  • Evaluations on BMC A.Ş
    Evaluations on BMC A.Ş. BMC was established in 1964 in İzmir with participation of the Özakat family combined with the technology of the English BMC Leyland Group in order to manufacture trucks, tractors, heavy and light commercial vehicles. In the early years, Austin and Morris- branded commercial vehicles were manufactured. BMC's domestic capital, which initially was at the rate of 74%, increased over the years and reached 100% in 1989 as a result of the acquisition by the Çukurova Group. Having contributed to the development of the Turkish automotive sector since it started its manufacturing in 1966, BMC manufactured its first diesel engine in Turkey and adapted petrol engines to diesel engines in 1976. In addition to motor vehicles, BMC also manufactured industrial engines, generators, marine engines and military products required by the industry. BMC is a company that exists in the automotive sector as an OEM (Original Equipment Manufacturer) and has the capability to manufacture trucks, buses, light commercial vehicles, and armored vehicles for the defense industry as well as casting parts and engines at two individual facilities. It has human resources with the capacity to create original designs and to develop new models thanks to R&D activities. The facility also has a training center and an apprenticeship school, both of which provide qualified manpower.The sales, marketing and after-sales services relating to the manufactured products are carried out in all operational markets using distribution channels and services authorized by BMC. At the facility, which is unproblematic in terms of machinery, equipment, human resources and market, manufacturing was interrupted in February of 2013 due to the financial problems.

  • Focke-Wulf Fw 190A-8/R2 1:48
    R0004 Focke-Wulf Fw 190A-8/R2 1:48 A FEW WORDS FIRST The second half of the Second World War saw the Focke-Wulf Fw 190, in its various forms, emerge as the best of what was available to the Luftwaffe. The dedicated fighter version was a high performance, heavily armed machine. Its development had a precarious beginning, against a 1938 specification issued by the TechnishesAmt, RLM. The first prototype took to the air on June 1, 1939. After a series of improvements and even radical changes, the design culminated in the fall of 1940 in the pre-series version Fw 190A-0 to the tune of twenty-eight pieces. Six of these were retained by the test unit Erprobungsstaffel 190 at Rechlin, which was tasked with conducting service trials. These revealed a wide range of flaws to the point where the RLM halted further development. Despite this, on the basis of urgings from the test unit staff, the aircraft was not shelved. After a series of some fifty modifications, the RLM gave the go ahead for the Fw 190 to be taken into inventory of the Luftwaffe. In June, 1941, the Luftwaffe accepted the first of 100 ordered Fw 190A-1s, armed with four 7.9 mm MG 17s. By September, 1941, II/JG 26 was completely equipped with the type, operating on the Western Front. November saw the production of the next version Fw 190A-2, powered by a BMW 801C-2, and armed with two 7.9 mm MG 17s and two MG 151s of 20 mm caliber in the wings.
