TAI for the first time exhibited at the Berlin ILA Air Show, one of the biggest in Europe, the ATAK Helicopter, recently 3 of which were delivered and the ANKA UAV, whose series production is continuing at a rapid pace, at static area reserved for TAI. Throughout the exhibition, participants and visitors showed great interest in TAI platforms. TAI General Manager Muharrem Dörtkaşlı gave important statements to Defence Turkey at the ILA Air Show on his impressions of the fair and activities planned during the coming year. Dörtkaşlı stressed that participation of Turkey at the fair with a partner country status was very important and said: “I think that exhibiting these products here is a very significant indicator in terms of the point that the Turkish defence industry has reached as a whole.”
In looking back at the last decade, Turkey has made an intense effort in developing these platforms and products said Dörtkaşlı and added: “ATAK and ANKA were ready and we brought them here. As you know test flights for Hürkuş are continuing. We couldn’t bring it here in time but in the next fair we hope to include Hürkuş to these platforms.”
