Baykar Prepares for Jet Engine Production in Samsun TurDef
Baykar’s recent investment is for the production of various gas turbine engines in a facility being set up inside the Samsun Tekkeköy OSB industrial zone.
The facility will be built in a 300-acre area reserved for Baykar. Baykar has had plans to step into the engine sector and took the first steps with the development of the BM100 internal combustion engine for the Bayraktar TB2 armed UAV.
However, the ultimate goal of Baykar is the production of gas turbine engines for its new line of platforms (Kızılelma unmanned fighter, Akıncı UCAV...), for which Baykar has been forming a workforce.
Beyond technical expertise, a significant production force is required for complicated gas turbine engines, which have highly demanding standards for component tolerances.
