At TEKNOFEST Blue Homeland, Roketsan’s Underwater Rocket Competition gives young engineers hands-on experience in designing and operating underwater rocket systems for future naval technologies.

Held at Istanbul Shipyard Command, the 8th TEKNOFEST Blue Homeland competition brings 42 finalist teams to the sea for the first time, testing rescue, mapping, and underwater infrastructure security missions.

At TEKNOFEST Mavi Vatan, Turkish Navy engineers shared details on the National Aircraft Carrier project, revealing 40 MW installed power and a 750 km-range ÇAFRAD radar system.

HAVELSAN’s VTOL-capable BAHA, BOZBEY, and BULUT UAVs completed integration tests with ships and USVs; the first deployment will be on Malaysia’s new 99-meter multipurpose vessel.

The HİSAR-D RF missile, launched from TCG İSTANBUL using ROKETSAN’s MİDLAS system, successfully hit its target off Sinop, demonstrating ASELSAN’s full system integration.

HAVELSAN is integrating its MAIN Artificial Intelligence Platform into the ADVENT combat management system to enhance decision support, maintenance, and operational processes in naval missions.

Under the SSB-led Offshore Patrol Vessel Project, four new ships will feature fully national helicopter platforms developed and certified through the HeliPLAT–Dearsan partnership.

After completing comprehensive modernization and ADVENT system integration, TCG ORUÇREİS entered active duty as the most advanced and powerful element of Turkey’s BARBAROS-class frigates.
