Some of the leading Turkish defense industry companies will
attend the 21st International Air and Space Fair (FIDAE) this year,
which will be held in the Chilean capital Santiago, Trend reports citing Daily Sabah .
The participation of Turkish companies comes as the rapidly
growing sector expands its area of potential purchasers.
This year's fair is set to be held with the support of the
Chilean Air Force Command on April 5-10.
FIDAE, which is held every two years, has been one of the most
important defense fairs in the Latin American region since 1980
when it was held for the first time.
Turkish companies will try to take advantage of cooperation and
marketing opportunities for regional countries such as Argentina,
Brazil, Colombia and Peru, particularly Chile.
The local companies will participate in the fair with the
concept of the 'Turkish National Pavilion' together with the
Defense Industry Exporters' Association under the leadership of the
Presidency of Defense Industries (SSB).
Defense giant Aselsan, Aspilsan, world-renowned pistol brand
Canik, prominent defense company Havelsan, leading armored vehicle
manufacturers Nurol Makine and Otokar, Repkon, Roketsan, TİSAŞ and
Turkish Aerospace Industries (TAI) are among those who will be
attending the fair.
During the fair, Turkish company officials will meet with
decision-makers and other companies of the participating
countries.
The official Turkish delegation will also hold talks with
Chilean authorities and the representatives of participating
countries.
Turkish defense industry companies will promote and present
armored vehicle platforms, various manned and unmanned aerial
vehicles, naval systems, weapon systems, electronic systems,
ammunition, simulators, logistics support products and defense
services within the scope of the fair.
Last year, Turkish defense giants attended another large-scale
Latin American defense air, Expodefensa 2021, held in Bogota
between Nov. 29-Dec. 1 and organized in association with the
Colombian Defense Ministry.
