Only 3 Countries can produce lithium-ion battery systems


ASPILSAN Energy General Manager Prof. Dr. Ahmet Turan Özdemir:

As ASPILSAN Energy, we produce the battery for the KAAN Fighter Jet, one of Turkiye's signature projects.

There are only 3 Countries in the world capable of designing and manufacturing high-performance, mission-critical, aviation-grade lithium-ion battery systems, such as those for 5th-generation fighter jets, and Turkiye is one of them.

After the deal between Türkiye, Pakistan and Saudi Arabia we can expect Pakistan and Saudis to become major operators of KAAN. The alliance has absolutely made sure of that.
