Over the past five years, TAI has signed 14 contracts with 7 African nations, exporting ATAK helicopters, ANKA and AKSUNGUR UAVs, and HÜRKUŞ aircraft. Turkish air platforms are increasingly preferred for their reliability and operational capability.

Türkiye achieved a world first as KIZILELMA hit a target detected by its own radar, while Skydagger successfully deployed a kamikaze drone from a UAV.

Bayraktar KIZILELMA made aviation history by striking a jet-powered aerial target with the GÖKDOĞAN BVR air-to-air missile during tests in Sinop, becoming the first unmanned fighter aircraft to achieve this feat. This milestone marks a new era in Turkey’s national air-combat capabilities.

DeltaV’s first in-air Ramjet engine ignition marks a milestone for Türkiye, positioning the country among the limited number of nations capable of developing high-speed Ramjet propulsion systems.

Turkey has signed defense contracts worth $6.5 billion to enhance its integrated air defense system, Steel Dome. The agreements involve ASELSAN, Roketsan, and HAVELSAN, boosting the nation’s self-sufficient defense ecosystem.
