 “As TUMOSAN, we made a strong start in 2021. We continue with the same momentum as we enter the last quarter of the year. We continue to invest, produce and develop technology with all our might for the purpose of a new and sustainable national agricultural policy,” TUMOSAN General Manager Halim Tosun stressed.

TUMOSAN, which invests in the field of armored combat vehicles in the Turkish defence industry, entered a new period in production.

In line with the memorandum of understanding signed between the two companies, HAVELSAN’s DOOB/HARB?YE-Tactical Command and Control Information System will be integrated with intelligence, surveillance and reconnaissance systems to be used in PUSAT and similar platforms developed by TUMOSAN.

The company continues to develop its works and investments every day in order to ensure the sustainability of agricultural production activities.

“Currently, we are receiving intense demand from our 23 overseas distributors, especially from the Balkan countries, the Middle East and Africa. We export especially to the Middle East countries. We continue our preparations for the European tractor market with all our strength," Tosun underlined.

Developed to provide economical and domestic solutions for floating platforms in Turkey. Tosun noted that the company had completed the localization activities of the diesel engine for the naval forces with the help of domestic resources.

In this context, the company also signed an important strategic cooperation agreement in June 2021.
