Defense Technologies Engineering and Trade Inc ( STM ), which for the first time has a strategic inland engineering exemption that requires advanced technology such as submarine , is increasing the share of work in Pakistan .
Submarine Contract Signing Ceremony of Pakistan Navy Agosta 90B Class Submarine Modernization was held in Pakistan Ministry of Defense. The ceremony attended by the Pakistani Ministry of Defense and the representatives of the Pakistan Navy.
The agreement was signed by General Arshad Mahmood of the Pakistani Ministry of Defense, General Director of STM Davut Yilmaz and Director of Marine Project Savaş Onur.

Various additional systems, including the first submarine vessel, were added to the configuration, while all systems in the main contract were equally in the configuration of the second submarine vessel. In addition, the third submarine vessel and various additional systems with the contract amendment were also taken as options.
First submarine ready in 2020
Within the scope of the project for the modernization of the Agosta 90B class submarines, STM has had a tough and long competition with the French DCNS Shipyard, which has been designing and manufacturing submarines. At the end of the bidding process STM was technically and commercially superior by the Pakistani Ministry of Defense and the contract was signed with the main contractor selected.
The first submarine will be delivered in 2020, in a project where modernization activities will be carried out on a shipyard owned by the Pakistan Navy in Karachi. The other submarines are planned to be modernized by 1 year.
New export doors to Turkish defense industry
For the first time with the project, a Turkish firm was selected as the main contractor in the overseas submarine project. Turkey, the project will first submarine design and engineering services exports.
In addition to the design, engineering and procurement activities to be provided within the framework of the project, integrated logistical support and training services will be provided to the elements of the Pakistan Navy.
Within the context of modernization activities, all sonar suites of the submarine, periscope systems, radar and electronic support systems will be replaced with command and control system. Within the framework of the project, HAVELSAN and ASELSAN systems will be exported.
In the project, modifications will be made on the most critical structure of the underwater durable boat (reinforced boat) by providing "system-system" and "platform-system" integrations of various systems to be provided by domestic and foreign companies by STM.
The project at the critical design stage continues successfully with the significant contributions of the Pakistani organizations and the staff of the Pakistan Navy, and the close working relationship.
At the MILGEM
Pakistan has an important place in the maritime projects carried out by the Turkish defense industry abroad.
STM, which previously signed the Project for Supply of Marine Tanker with Pakistan and has made the biggest export in one item on the basis of military ship, continues to work on the vessel successfully launched.
The submarine modernization project further strengthened the long-standing maritime business alliance between the two countries.
A goodwill agreement was signed at the 13th International Defense Industry Fair in Istanbul (IDEF 2017) before the final agreement for the MILGEM Project. Within this scope, 4 island-type corvettes to be delivered to the Pakistan Navy are planned to be produced by Karachi Shipyard with the model in the Marine Supply Tanker Project under the main contract of STM.
