What plan???
Is the TF-X program ready!!
If you wish to show your support to our fellow Iranian friends do it with some style.
Don't troll.
Almost all Turkish members KNOW that turkey is developing many things with help from "friends".
No one is saying that Altay MBT T-129ATAK or even MILGEM is 100% Turkish. The important thing is to gain technology and KnowHow. Most of the Turkish projects are Top class products. Who cares if its not 100% indiginounes.
As addition, Turkish programs are pure clear not to make simple propagandas, when they are compared with your POLITICIAN's defence industry activities(not your engineers) known by worldwide. Their budgets, technological level, feasibility reports, roadways, time schedules, payments, contributions, collaborations (If exist) and project models...etc are reachable from even official pages and Commencement of Turkish programs have nothing to do with any other country. I mean Turkey is competing with himself and Sorry but There is no rival(especially a country with the products which have/will have no place in battlefield but aiming pure propaganda) of Turkey in that region excluding Israel.
We always emphasize the satisfactory national contibution rates and Intellectual/property right ownrship of final design (If a collaboration is exist)(That's the advanceent model of all World countries including S. Korea, Israel. Nothing special for Turkey). I mean Turkey has a target to be self sufficient but Not have any plan to manufacture %100 of what Army needs. At current situation, The avarage national contribution for Land systems are %75-80 and Naval systems are around %70. With national powerpack and transmission programs, Those rates are expected to be exceeded over %90 (It means impressive).
After the complete design solutions on strategic programs whose intelectual and property rights belongs to Turkey, What Turkey fully concantrates are the strategic electronic and serious parts subsystems worth million $ (Despite such small but serious things doesn't affect much on national contribution rates) which is able to change the techological generation of mentioned products (Such as Infrared Detectors for E/O programs (5-6 countries are able to manufacture), transistors (simple but so serious part of electronic circuit, GRAFEN screen solutions and many other parts and so Serious R&D activities are carried out for that purpose.
I mean I mean It is not something as a product ordered from abroad and stick a Turkish flag on it for propaganda... As I said, Everything is pure clear If you check some achievements. Noone puts 2-3 Turkish institutes in World Top-100 defence industry lists cause of nothing. It is about serious works and R&D activities for final products...
