Saudi Arabia wants to buy 600-800 Leopard tanks from Germany

We produce one of the most automotive in europe , we can make our own car easily BUT the problem is big businessman have the right to sell products like ford , renault etc in turkiye so if we make our own brand car then they will be competing so the businessman dont want it although the government is saying the private sector should make our own brand

I think it has more to do with lack of automotive, electronic infastructure. South Korea and Japan have the capability to produce airplanes, tanks, etc. But, that is because they have multinational corporations constantly investing in R & D and reaping profits.

In 2008 we produced 1,150,000 motor vehicles , we are 15th largest producer in world

I never understood Saudi unable to purchase Al-Khalid for some reasons. They think of BMW or ferrari luxury something.

@Raptor. Thats because Leopard by far is world's best main battle tank.

BS. We produced similarly, Saudi think of best brand products. Think about Israeli Merkava was destroyed in Lebanon war, best??

I don't think they understand war scenarios, it will be repeat same mistakes during previous six days wars without self-reliances.

iam hoping we make the Canal Istanbul which will be very great and strategic aswell

I was speaking more about the GCC nations. However in the case you mentioned above, the intellectual propery rights belong to ford, a corporation of another nation.

It is different than offering local companies tenders to produce military goods. Like Japan does with it's automakers, or the US with it's airplane manfacturers.

please read all my post again , big businessman e.g Koc Holding , dont want our own brand car because they will be in direct competition with the products they locally produce e.g ford etc so they can lose money , so they are saying there is no need to make our own brand car otherwise we have all the expertise etc


Together we can stand , divided we fall

Can you imagine. Suppose we can dream include Pakistan Iran Turkey and GCC lol

I would be happy if we just cooperated

With all due respect and love to our Pakistani brothers and products but I can't believe you guys comparing Leopard 2A7 with Al-khalid.

It's even superior to American Abrams m1a2 in protection, mobility, fire power and in almost everything.

Did you read earlier article. First they may refuse to sell, then they may at any time in future withhold parts and third they may install kill switch. Pleas do not buy from Pakistan. Buy from Turkey.

And do you know what does Leopard 2A7 mean? it's just the most powerful tank has ever been produced...

do you know how easy it would be to put a kill switch in the kit. Do think they would supply parts lets say in the unlikely event Sauds went to war with say Israel??
