Ther is a lot of misunderstanding specially Arabs thinking that Turkey had leverage about technologic partners. Turkey act smart and not dumb as the Arab world back in the day. They think that Turkey did do nothing to gain technology, like Israel ore the west gived us ToT. The most of the thing they did give us assamble weapons in own country, like they do in ther country and thinking that they will turn in a big player in ther Arab world
.
The fact is Turkey invested in industry and people 50 years ago. All that weapons didn't pop up the ground. So they are trying to partner with Western countries and hope the best. Thats why you can see ther grudge against Turkish achievements. From drone to missile they will bash it is licence product, or not pair with the Western world.
Like our latest AshM Atmaca is the only AshM in the world with dual seeker, this kind things are not ToT from Western world. Hard work and investment....
