Our website received a press release from the Turkish company Aselsan on the occasion of signing export contracts worth more than one billion US dollars in 2024, a record in its history. It reads as follows:
Ankara, 3 February 2025 - ASELSAN signed export contracts worth over 1 billion USD in 2024,
a record high figure in its history. The company also expanded its global footprint with the
opening of new offices worldwide, steadily advancing toward its ambitious 2030 goals.
ASELSAN, Türkiye’s leading defense company, achieved an outstanding performance in
international sales in 2024 and exceeded 1 billion dollars of export contracts. Direct exports
doubled compared to the previous year, reaching 217 million USD, while indirect exports
through land, naval, and air platforms totaled 291 million USD, leading to an overall export
volume of 508 million USD, demonstrating ASELSAN’s growing influence in global markets.
In 2024, the company signed contracts with seven countries for the first time, bringing the
total number of countries, which trust ASELSAN technology to 92. In addition, 31 products
were exported for the first time, including ASELFLIR-500 camera, GÖZDE and KGK guidance
kits, CENK naval radars, FERSAH anti-submarine sonar, and more. Among them, its new
generation electro optical system ASELFLIR-500, notable for its superior performance on UAVs
was sold to 16 countries in its first production year.
New offices opened in six different countries in 2024 have expanded ASELSAN’s global
presence to 20 countries, enhancing its ability to provide better services to the end-users. By
supplying the Ku-Band and X-Band LOCUS communication payloads for Türkiye's first domestic
communication satellite, TÜRKSAT-6A, ASELSAN has become capable of providing
communication solutions to all platforms, from the depths of the sea to the depths of space.
ASELSAN President & CEO Ahmet Akyol evaluated the company’s success: “2024 had been a
remarkable year for ASELSAN in terms of new orders and deliveries domestically and
internationally. We achieved to become one of the 10 fastest-growing defense companies in
the world, making us climbing five places in the Defense News Top 100 list. I see all these
achievements as a result of the dedicated work of our young and talented workforce and want
to thank each of them for being a part of this amazing team. Looking ahead to 2025, our 50th
anniversary, ASELSAN has higher goals to reach in sight, with the motivation to build on the
achievements of 2024. We will continue to produce the highest technologies with the most
qualified capabilities and the fastest processes, and present them to the world in frame of our
strategic vision for 2030, which we call aselsaneXt2030. I strongly believe we will continue to
deliver innovative, mission-focused solutions for our customers, while setting new standards
for operational efficiency and technological leadership in the defense industrial base.”
