WASHINGTON And ANKARA - Turkey's military, the second largest in NATO, has prioritized the integration of communications and fire control systems of key weapons.
"Chief of the General Staff Gen. Ilker Basbug and his staff attach special importance to boosting IT [information technology] capabilities, and the military is moving in that direction," said one military official.
Turkey's largest military electronics company, Aselsan, based near Ankara, over the past year has completed the integration of fire control systems on more than 100 German-made Leopard 1 tanks.
