Packed with new missiles, drones and jet designs, Turkey’s IDEF 2025 conference ended up being full of news.
Of course, not everyone could make it to the show, held in Istanbul. Which is why Breaking Defense’s Middle Eastern Bureau Chief Agnes Helou traveled to the show to bring you the sights and sounds for the conference.
After a roundup of some key announcements, Agnes talked with Mehmet Demiroğlu, the CEO of Turkish Aerospace Industries, who discussed his belief that the company’s KAAN jet will find sales in the Gulf region and discussed his five-year plan for the company.
