They'll become reliable if BMC+Rheinmetall is selected.

I cant imagine how the BMC+Rheinmetall could manageble. Brits + Nazis = Any approvals on any exports nor to any country.

Turkey’s Defense Industry Undersecretary (SSM) on Nov. 24 called on five companies to bid on a project to develop its national Altay battle tank’s engine.

In a statement on its website, the SSM said the companies were called to submit their bids for the Altay tank’s “Power Group Development Project,” which focuses on its engine.

The companies, including the public engine maker Tümosan as well as BMC Otomotiv, Figes Fizik, Istanbul Denizcilik and Tusas Motor, will start work on the engine if selected.

Turkey has been working to develop its own defense systems and equipment, and has lined up several projects for the coming years, including combat helicopters, tanks, drones and more.

On Nov. 22, Defense Minister Nurettin Canikli said Turkey has received bids to mass produce 500 Altay tanks, of which 250 were optional, and added that the tender would be finalized in the coming days.

The Altay tank project, led by the Turkish commercial and military vehicle producer Otokar, is worth an estimated 7 billion euros ($8.30 billion).

After years passed with unsuccessfulness, we seem to start over from scratch. And I dont know what the point is with calling TÜMOSAN of "Albayrak Group" again which clearly failed before.

Smells dirty.

The reason why contract with TÜMOSAN was cancelled is because Austra pulled their company from assisting TÜMOSAN - if you're going to blame anyone blame Austria and SSM for not foreseeing Austrian intentions.
TÜMOSAN is going out of their way developing working engines while the other companies are just talk.
