T-129 Atak & Turkish Attack Helicopter Programs

Looks like strobe light to me @OguzSenturk

It looks like a multi-directional strobe light. There are LEDs facing left, right, forward, back, and below.
Looks like from Cree, the best LED manufacturer in the market.

When is it going to be in production?
Probably by 2023. TAI has a good amount of experience and know-how now so I'd expect Atak-2 to actually take shorter to develop than it took them with the T-129. It's expected to share many components, subsystems and design concepts with the T-129 -- just bigger and heavier (new engine, new hull, more weapon pylons) with a few new tricks up its sleeve.

Yes; I think the development time will be significantly shorter.
Apart from the problems with Turkey developing engines, I do not think that Turkey has any problems with components, subsystems and design concepts -- whereas their biggest problem seems to be making a decision and keeping to it.

Dear do you really ask?
After 129 follows 130:)It couldn't be another number.I think there's no hint or adress.
Why does it have to follow up,its not a ship?
Can you give another example where the next gen helicopter gets a follow up nr?
Why 130,why not 131/32/35 or T129 7T/8T(7/8 ton),or whatever name?
