Prof. Dr. Haluk Görgün also spoke at the inauguration, expressing his enthusiasm for the new office. He noted, “I am very pleased to be part of the opening of ASELSAN’s Muscat Office in Oman. The Turkish defense industry has made remarkable strides globally, particularly in technology and export capacity. This new office represents a crucial step in our mission to deepen our ties with the Gulf region and will further strengthen the relationship between Turkey and Oman. I extend my heartfelt thanks to all those involved in this significant initiative.”
In a related development, ASELSAN is also making investments in radar production, which underscores its commitment to advancing defense technologies and enhancing regional security.
