Leonardo has worked with Turkey for many years, contributing to a number of important defence and security programs. Recently, the Company re-branded its in-country subsidiary as Leonardo Turkey Havacılık, Savunma ve Güvenlik Sistemleri A.Ş. (Leonardo Turkey Aviation, Defence and Security Systems Inc.). The new name highlights the subsidiary’s focus on the needs of Turkey and its ability to provide a comprehensive defence and security offer to the country, which is seen as a strategic market in Leonardo’s industrial plan. 

The Turkish Armed Forces currently have access to growing budgets so will be looking to equip themselves with best-in-class products and systems. With this in mind, Leonardo stands ready to share its 70 years of experience and expertise in supplying state-of-the-art systems and technologies for Turkey’s high-level requirements for defence, protection and security across a number of domains: air, land, naval, space and cyberspace. Leonardo is also an ideal industrial partner, looking to build mutually beneficial relationships in full coordination with the Presidency of Defence Industries (SSB).
