Defence Turkey: Dear Dr. Faik Eken, first of all we would like to thank you for this interview. How has the year 2016 been for Aselsan concerning domestic and international sales? What are your assessments?

In 2016, we worked with all our strength in order to fulfill our commitments to all our customers, the foremost being the Turkish Armed Forces. We have accelerated our deliveries and increased our turnover significantly compared to the last year’s performance. Export wise 2016 has been a year during which we have received a record level of international orders.
