3000 New generation IFV

I thought it was about 1.000... Which vehicles included in this category ? TULPAR, PARS, ARMA, ACV-30, LAWC-T, OTOKAR COBRA I & II... Are these all in or maybe some other ? Can you give detail it a bit ?

Or is it just TULPAR ? 3 TULPAR IFV/1 ALTAY MBT

BTW we should quickly produce indigenous engine... At least 5.000 engines needed...

Just tulpar, bradley, puma type vehicles. Heavy vehicles not like acv 300.

Bradley is an improved acv-300. (The early Version).

But FNSS should develop an new IFV an not only LAWC-T , maybe an tracked solution from AV-8 , like Tulpar that looks like an stretched and tracked arma.

Hyundai Rotem Company, an affiliate heavy industry company of the Hyundai Motor Group, signed a contract with Otokar(Kudret Önen, CEO) on July 29th, to provide technical support and assistance for the Turkish new main battle tank program(ALTAY program). The technical support will be carried out until April 2015, to develop new main battle tanks for Turkey. Hyundai Rotem had participated in Turkey's long desired battle tank development program as a foreign technical support and assistance provider since 2006. The Agency for Defense Development (ADD) of Korea has also been involved in the project with Hyundai Rotem under the support of the Defense Acquisition Program Administration. In June 2008, Hyundai Rotem was selected as the preferred bidder among world's top tank builders such as KMW of Germany. After negotiating the terms of the technical support and assistance Hyundai Rotem entered into a contract with Turkey. The contract covers technical support and technology transfer for tank system, armor and main gun. Hyundai Rotem will also support the entire project process from tank design, production to testing, with the support of the Agency for Defense Development (ADD).
