Defence Turkey: Rolls-Royce has a history as a supplier to the Turkish Armed Forces, could you please assess your activities in Turkey over the years?

We have a significant presence in country with our air, marine and land presence. My focus in my role is defense aerospace; we’ve been here for roughly 50 years focused mainly on transport, back to the C160 the C130 and in transport coming on board now is the A400M which we’re part of with the TP400 engine. We’ve also got the CTS800 in the “Atak” helicopter and most recently in the TLUH program as well. I think we have a strong presence and hopefully we can build on that through the Turkish Fighter in the coming years.
