Guide: According to a report by CNN on April 26, Turkey has chosen Ukraine Motorsic as the engine supplier for its attack helicopter ATAK-II, and the relevant contract has been signed.


Turkey chose the engine from a Ukrainian manufacturer because of the lack of substitutes for the domestic manufacturer.

Temel Kotil, general manager of the Turkish Aerospace Industry (TAI) company, called Ukraine a sibling country, and also pointed out that due to embargoes or sanctions, if you choose a Western supplier you may also encounter problems, but choose a Ukrainian supplier There will be no such risks.
