South Korean firm to provide automatic transmission mechanism for engine of Türkiye’s indigenous tank project Altay under a $217 agreement, after an earlier deal with German companies collapsed
A South Korean firm has announced it will supply an automatic transmission mechanism for the engine that powers Türkiye’s main battle tank Altay.
The export agreement involves a supply commitment of $74.9M until 2027 and an additional sourcing option valued at $141M between 2028 and 2030. In the long term, Türkiye aims to produce its own engines and transmission. However, the South Korean supplies will serve as a stop-gap solution until Türkiye’s defence industry can manufacture the parts locally.
Türkiye launched the Altay tank project in 2005 to improve the technical capabilities of Turkish defence and increase the country’s domestic contribution in the sector.The Altay tank project, which was intended to incorporate technologies from multiple players, faced significant delays in getting critical components like engines and transmission.
