Since the early 1900s helicopters have come in a variety of forms and they have become an integral part of daily operations in the aviation industry, both in civilian and military fields. Immediately after the Second World War, we can see an immediate upswing the use of helicopters, especially for civic purposes.

Helicopters, which are an integral part of the Turkish Armed Forces, were initially imported from foreign countries. Now, Turkey aims to produce domestic and national helicopters with ATAK-2 as part of the process that started with T129 ATAK and continues with T625 GÖKBEY.
