MSPO 2015: TAI Signs MoUs with Polish Industry

On 1 September, Turkish Aerospace Industries (TAI), the producer of T129 ATAK Advanced Attack and Tactical Reconnaissance Helicopter, signed MoUs with WCBKT, WZL1, ITWL, and MESKO. The T129 ATAK is a candidate for the KRUK Programme of the Polish Armed Forces. The MoUs cover bilateral cooperation between the companies in relation to introducing T129 ATAK helicopter to the Polish Armed Forces.


The T129 ATAK Advanced Attack and Tactical Reconnaissance Helicopter is a new generation, tandem two-seat, twin engine helicopter, specifically designed for attack and reconnaissance purposes. The T129 ATAK incorporates a totally new system philosophy, with new engines (LHTEC CTS 800-4A), new avionics, electro-optics and weapon systems, a modified airframe, upgraded drive train, and new tail rotor. It has been optimised to meet and exceed the performance requirements of the most challenging geographical and environmental conditions. The first fleet of T129 ATAK helicopters has already been delivered to the Turkish Armed Forces and is in service supporting the missions of the Turkish Army.
