Missiles
UMTAS/LUMTAS-GM(Long-range Anti-tank guided missile): In the first configuration, UMTAS/LUMTAS-GM Block-1, there are two different seeker head options. The system, which can be used with an Infrared Imager Seeker (IIR) or Semi-Active Laser Seeker integrated, will be able to reach a range of 1 to 16 kilometers when launched from land vehicles and 1 to 20+ kilometers when launched from helicopters. Expected to enter in the inventory 2024. UMTAS/LUMTAS-GM-Blok-2, which has the ability to be fired day / night, according to the type of warhead it has; It can be used against main battle tanks, armoured personnel carriers, trucks, all-terrain vehicles, light pillboxes, trenches, buildings, helicopters flying at low altitude. It will be able to reach a range of 1 to 32+ kilometers when launched from land vehicles, and 1 to 50+ kilometers when launched from helicopters. Expected to enter in inventory 2025 onwards.
LOMTAS(Medium-range Anti-tank guided missile): ROKETSAN has started to develop the LOMTAS Anti-Tank Missile over the OMTAS Missile with imager infrared seeker (IIR) head. Unlike OMTAS, the LOMTAS Anti-Tank Missile will have a semi-active laser seeker ,and will be produced at an extremely low cost compared to OMTAS. The developed missile will be effective up to a range of 4+ kilometers.
Tayfun(Short-range ballistic missile): Expected to enter in inventory. In mass production.
Cenk(Medium-range ballistic missile): CENK, which will be Turkey's first Medium Range Ballistic Missile (MRBM), is expected to have a range of 1000+ kilometers.
Gürz(Surface-to-air-missile): Developed by Aselsan Gürz is hybrid short-to-medium range air defence system. The design based on the ANADOLU ISUZU Seyit 8×8 vehicle includes the following systems : 35 mm cannon capable of using particulate ammunition , 4 BOZDOĞAN or GÖKDOĞAN derivative low-altitude air defence missiles , Very low-altitude defence missile , Fire Control Radar , AESA Search Radar with 4 indexes.
TRLG-230 : Planned acquisition of laser guided missiles developed by Roketsan for MLRS platform.
Vehicles
New Generation Armoured Combat Vehicles : With the NEW-AFV Project, a large number of armoured combat vehicles, both tactical wheeled (6×6 and 8×8) and tracked types, will be procured. At the first stage, the procurement of tactical wheeled type vehicles will be carried out. It will be procured 2000 tactical wheeled armoured fighting vehicles including Pars Alpha from FNSS and Altuğ from BMC.
Expected delivery for FNSS Pars Scout 8x8 and 6x6 vehicles .
Tunga(Medium class unmanned ground vehicle) :Developed by Katmerciler hybrid driven UGV.
Kaplan MT(Medium/Light tank) : Possible acquisition of the Kaplan tank developed by FNSS for the Land Forces.
Kisrak(Tactical wheeled medium truck) : New locally developed truck by Koluman Otomativ is planned for the Land Forces.
Artillery
ARPAN-155(155 mm Truck mounted self-propelled howitzer) : Developed by BMC and ASFAT ARPAN-155 is Panter towed howitzer which is modernized and mounted on 8x8 wheeled truck.
Aircraft
New liaison and utility aircraft project.
Hürkuş-C light attack aircraft.
Helicopter
TAI T929 ATAK 2(Attack helicopter) : Developed by Turkish Aerospace industries, Atak 2 will be better than the Atak T129 in terms of payload, overall performance, speed, range and avionics.
TAI T925 (Utility helicopter) : 10 ton class utility helicopter is planned for Land Forces Command in the future.
Other systems
EJDERHA - Developed by Aselsan for the Land Forces Command and security forces, EJDERHA will be able to remotely stop all kinds of civil/military vehicles with electronic circuits with electromagnetic signals. The system, which can be integrated into tactical wheeled armoured/tracked vehicles, can be controlled manned and unmanned (by remote command).
GÖKBERK - Developed by Aselsan. GÖKBERK is a Mobile Laser Weapon System which can track and detect UAVs with radar and electro-optical sensors. It stands out as a weapon system that performs the physical destruction of threats by using the Laser weapon with a power of at least 5kW, and the functional destruction of threats by mixing using the Kangal jammer subsystem.
Reserve equipment
Retired equipment of the TLF included the Vickers machine gun, used by Turkish forces for many years.
