Projects :

  • Missiles
  1. UMTAS/LUMTAS-GM(Long-range Anti-tank guided missile): In the first configuration, UMTAS/LUMTAS-GM Block-1, there are two different seeker head options. The system, which can be used with an Infrared Imager Seeker (IIR) or Semi-Active Laser Seeker integrated, will be able to reach a range of 1 to 16 kilometers when launched from land vehicles and 1 to 20+ kilometers when launched from helicopters. Expected to enter in the inventory 2024. UMTAS/LUMTAS-GM-Blok-2, which has the ability to be fired day / night, according to the type of warhead it has; It can be used against main battle tanks, armoured personnel carriers, trucks, all-terrain vehicles, light pillboxes, trenches, buildings, helicopters flying at low altitude. It will be able to reach a range of 1 to 32+ kilometers when launched from land vehicles, and 1 to 50+ kilometers when launched from helicopters. Expected to enter in inventory 2025 onwards.[335]
  2. LOMTAS(Medium-range Anti-tank guided missile): ROKETSAN has started to develop the LOMTAS Anti-Tank Missile over the OMTAS Missile with imager infrared seeker (IIR) head. Unlike OMTAS, the LOMTAS Anti-Tank Missile will have a semi-active laser seeker, and will be produced at an extremely low cost compared to OMTAS. The developed missile will be effective up to a range of 4+ kilometers.[336]
  3. Tayfun(Short-range ballistic missile): Expected to enter in inventory. In mass production.[337]
  4. Cenk(Medium-range ballistic missile): CENK, which will be Turkey's first Medium Range Ballistic Missile (MRBM), is expected to have a range of 1000+ kilometers.[126]
  5. Gürz(Surface-to-air-missile): Developed by Aselsan Gürz is hybrid short-to-medium range air defence system. The design based on the ANADOLU ISUZU Seyit 8×8 vehicle includes the following systems : 35 mm cannon capable of using particulate ammunition, 4 BOZDOĞAN or GÖKDOĞAN derivative low-altitude air defence missiles, Very low-altitude defence missile, Fire Control Radar, AESA Search Radar with 4 indexes.[338]
  6. TRLG-230 : Planned acquisition of laser guided missiles developed by Roketsan for MLRS platform.[339]
  • Vehicles
  1. New Armoured Vehicle project- The Turkish Land Forces plan to expand their fleet with more than 2,000 vehicles through additional orders[340] Expected delivery for FNSS Pars Alpha 8x8 and 6x6 vehicles.[132]
  2. Tunga(Medium class unmanned ground vehicle) :Developed by Katmerciler hybrid driven UGV.[341]
  3. Kaplan MT(Medium/Light tank) : Possible acquisition of the Kaplan tank developed by FNSS for the Land Forces.[342]
  4. Kisrak(Tactical wheeled medium truck) : New locally developed truck by Koluman Otomativ is planned for the Land Forces.[343]
  • Aircraft
  1. New liaison and utility aircraft project.[344]
  2. Hürkuş-C light attack aircraft.[345]
  • Helicopter
  1. TAI T929 ATAK 2(Attack helicopter) : Developed by Turkish Aerospace industries, Atak 2 will be better than the Atak T129 in terms of payload, overall performance, speed, range and avionics.[346]
  2. TAI T925 (Utility helicopter) : 10 ton class utility helicopter is planned for Land Forces Command in the future.[347]
  • Other systems
  1. EJDERHA - Developed by Aselsan for the Land Forces Command and security forces, EJDERHA will be able to remotely stop all kinds of civil/military vehicles with electronic circuits with electromagnetic signals. The system, which can be integrated into tactical wheeled armoured/tracked vehicles, can be controlled manned and unmanned (by remote command).[348]
  2. GÖKBERK - Developed by Aselsan. GÖKBERK is a Mobile Laser Weapon System which can track and detect UAVs with radar and electro-optical sensors. It stands out as a weapon system that performs the physical destruction of threats by using the Laser weapon with a power of at least 5 kW, and the functional destruction of threats by mixing using the Kangal jammer subsystem.[349]
