Historic Threshold in Financial and Operational Growth
ASELSAN, the global actor of Turkish defense electronics and system integration, shattered records in the defense economy with its latest financial results. For the first time in the company's history, backlog orders crossed the $30 billion barrier, settling at the $30.7 billion level. Considering only the $20 billion baseline at the end of 2025, this massive climb achieved in a short period clearly demonstrates that the demand for the Turkish defense industry in global market dynamics has increased exponentially. The total new contract volume of $14 billion signed in the first three quarters of 2026 was recorded as the highest level in its corporate history.
