Having previously signed the Fleet Tanker and Agosta Class Submarine Modernization Projects, STM will realize the biggest export activities in the history of the Turkish Defense Industry with this 3rd Project in Pakistan, namely the Pakistan MILGEM Project.

Within the framework of the collaboration established under the leadership of the Undersecretariat for Defense Industries, STM signed a Letter of Intent at the IDEF 2017 Fair with Karachi Shipyard (KS & EW) in order to work together on the Fleet Tanker Project. It is planned that 4 “Ada” class MILGEMs will be manufactured at Karachi Shipyard in order to be delivered to the Pakistan Navy.

It is planned that the definitive agreement will be singed on 30 June 2017 in Pakistan for the MiLGEM Project, undoubtedly a project that will be the biggest Turkish defense industry export success to date.
