Great news... Thx...



Sure number of engines for ships will be so less when it's compared to land vehicles' engines but i think navy need more then 10-15... As i remember each big ship uses more then 1 engine... And there will be some small ships too... And most important part is indigenous ship engine will make us so powerful about exporting our Ships...

Also i'm sure our private shipyards will use indigenous engines on civilian ships... We produce so much civilian ship as you know... And they are huge in numbers...

-PV1 completed, PV2's body and turret is completed...

-Both FTR & MTR tests are going on...

National power pack project aims to develop a 1800 HP engine for Altay and other Armoured vehicles will be procured in future. and its contracted to TÜMOSAN ( given in previous links ) to develop the engine.
Same project also mentions about Marine applications for the engine will be developed. But main purpose is to develop for Altay MBT.
TÜMOSAN ,is a company already manufacturing engines for agricultural ,some land and very few marine applications , until 240 hp.

The Turkish Engine Industry & Trade Corporation (TÜMOSAN), in cooperation with İstanbul Technical University (İTÜ), is looking to increase its annual production of diesel engines from 75,000 to 100,000, TÜMOSAN managers announced in a press release issued on Wednesday.

TÜMOSAN manufactured Turkey's first liquefied petroleum gas (LPG)-powered diesel engine in cooperation with İTÜ's Automotive Technologies R&D Center (OTAM) and the Scientific and Technological Research Council of Turkey (TÜBİTAK) in February of 2011. According to the press release, in accelerating it efforts to ease Turkey's dependency on foreign sources in the automotive industry, TÜMOSAN recently designed Turkey's first domestically produced six-cylinder diesel engine. The first test of the prototype is scheduled to take place in August of 2014.

TÜMOSAN already manufactures 75,000 diesel engines annually at a factory in the province of Konya, but its new target for the factory is 100,000. As per the press release, as Turkey's first diesel engine manufacturer, TÜMOSAN is not only continuing its efforts to advance the quality of the diesel engines it manufactures but will produce a new type of domestic diesel engine. It is currently able to produce three- and four-cylinder diesel engines of 50-115 horsepower. The corporation plans to increase the performance of these engines to 50-135 horsepower. Its new six-cylinder diesel engine is expected to run at up to 250 horsepower.

TÜMOSAN is also working toward manufacturing 275 horsepower diesel engines for use in the agricultural sector and 450 horsepower diesel engines for the domestic automotive industry.

I think Tumosan is the best selection among candidates like Hema and BMC. They have domestic motor production brends and lots of development efforts with ITU and Tubitak. Quality of their products are appreciated by costumers. Allah helps us to develop an impressive engine family from 1500hp to 100hp to power up all platforms we need. With this way, It will be the end of dependancy on MTU or Cummins engines on our platforms.

BTW, National powerpack project contains not only development of domestic engines but also transmission system as well..
