History

Roketsan, was founded on 14 June 1988 by the decision of the Defense Industries Executive Committee for the purpose of “Establishing a leading institution in the country for designing, developing and manufacturing rockets and missiles”.[7]

Roketsan signed a contract in 2013 to build the project of the national UFS Space Launch System.[8] In 2013, the Government of Turkey approved the construction of its first satellite launching center by Roketsan.[9] In August 2020, the Roketsan Satellite Launch, Space Systems and Advanced Technologies Research Center was established.[10]

On 29 June 2021, the governments of Turkey and Bangladesh signed a defence memorandum of understanding for the export of Roketsan products to Bangladesh, according to İsmail Demir, president of Presidency of Defense Industries.[11] Roketsan had already delivered the TRG-300 Tiger MLRS to the Bangladesh Army in June 2021 in a separate deal.[12] Bangladesh was set to become one of the top defence equipment clients of Turkey and Roketsan in the following few years. In October 2021, the Bangladesh Army received a second batch of the TRG-300 Tiger missile system.[13]
