ANKARA

Turkish defense giant Aselsan will deliver major projects this year which were signed with Türkiye’s Defense Industries Presidency (SSB).

Türkiye’s strategic defense and security needs are met through the SSB, which gives contracts to defense companies in order to self-sustain its security needs.

Aselsan provides security solutions in areas such as communication and information technologies, defense systems, microelectronics, guidance and electro-optics, radar and electronic warfare systems, transportation, security, energy, automation and health systems.

The firm, which has been one of the most reliable manufacturers of the defense industry for many years with the technologies it has developed, has signed many contracts with SSB for many years.

There are various orders worth 26.55 billion Turkish liras ($1.38 billion), which were agreed between Aselsan and SSB in 2022 and before, with a delivery date of 2023.

Air and missile defense systems constitute the largest item of the total deliveries to be made this year, with 3.7 billion liras ($192.7 million).
