Another important task from NATO to ASELSAN…
The NATO Support and Procurement Agency (NSPA) will procure “Friend-or-Foe Identification (IFF)” Systems for portable air defense systems (MANPADS) from ASELSAN under a three-year framework contract.
As one of the few institutions in the world capable of producing Mode-5 IFF Systems
( USA , Turkiye , France , Germany , Italy )

Big news so after Ukraine , Romania now Portugal signs naval contracts with Turkey
soon nations like Spain and Italy will be buying from Turkey
followed by France, UK and Germany
so far
Portugal 2 replenishment tankers worth $100+ million
Romania 1 x Hisar class worth over $250+ million
Ukraine 2 x MILGEM worth $250 million
Indonesia 2 x I-Class worth over $1 billion
Pakistan 4 x Ada Class worth $1-1.5 billion
Pakistan fleet tanker was $90 million
Malaysia 3 x MILGEM worth $500 million +
Bangladesh 2 x OPV small order
Qatar over $1 billion+
17 x high speed patrol boats
3 x OPV
6 smaller boats for coast guard
2 x I-class
Total Ada/MILGEM exported = 9 units
Total I-Class = 4 units
Turkey has 5 x Ada/MILGEM with 10 x Hisar planned + 1 for Romania
Total Hulls = 25 units
thats 5 more than the French La Fayette FFG and more than the FREEMM
I think its safe to say this is a very successful naval platform and sets the stage for future naval exports after getting credibility
