In the first six months of this year, we introduced our defence industry products and capabilities at the fairs held in Eastern Europe, the Far East and South America, especially at Eurosatory, Europe"s largest defence industry fair.While we had the opportunity to meet face-to-face with our current users after the pandemic, we came together with our potential users. In addition to our successful products and services in land vehicles, we also stand out with our technology transfer capabilities. We closely follow cooperation and export opportunities in different regions."Stating that they actively follow the needs and expectations of many countries in the defence industry, Görgüç said, "The successful performance of our armoured vehicles, which are in the inventory of different countries and are actively used in peacekeeping forces, attracts the attention of many countries. Users want to try our tools in their own geographical and climatic conditions. Currently, our vehicles are subjected to detailed and rigorous tests by our users in many countries. We closely follow the expectations and needs of our users. We received an important export order, which we announced to the public in May this year. We will complete the deliveries in the coming period."
