Turkey has been trying developing its own tank engine for how many decades now?

Having to note, even Koreans haven't managed to field their own tank engine either. Their licensed MTU diesel is still worse than the original, and their transmission adds to that.

Japanese tanks are way more remarkable in that regard. Japan is the only Asian country which managed to make a competitive completely indigenous tank engine AND a transmission. Type-10 transmission is superior to whatever RENK makes, and most of the world still lags behind RENK.

2 decades and they have done it now..
If the economy doesn't get bad further it will probably develop its jet engine too

Key there is courting the Arabs..they have to get in the good books of Arabs and forget about Europe.

Europe is dying and they don't stand a chance there

Type-10 transmission is superior to whatever RENK makes, and most of the world still lags behind RENK.

But the Type 10 is extremely expensive :S

Certainly According to media propaganda supposed for Rolls-Royce's Turkish ambitions possibility was no chance, but
Türkie underestimate but in reality the British's did fake news coul Turkey made them determined to innovate surpasses indipendently. Not demagogues anymore.
