TASECS İklimlendirme A.Ş. has taken a significant step toward reducing external dependency in critical areas of the defense industry and developing national solutions. The company has signed a strategic cooperation agreement with TRMOTOR Power Systems Inc. for the development of the ATS (Air Turbine Starter) Control Valve used in aircraft engines through indigenous engineering capabilities and national resources.

Under the scope of the agreement, the design, manufacturing, and testing processes of the ATS Control Valve—which plays a critical role in aircraft engine starting systems—will be carried out using local resources. As a result, this high-precision and high-reliability equipment will be delivered to the defense industry entirely through national capabilities.

This strategic collaboration represents an important milestone in producing innovative solutions for the aerospace and defense industries by combining TASECS’s engineering expertise in environmental control systems with TRMOTOR’s specialization in power systems. While serving Türkiye’s vision of technological independence, the project will also contribute to advancing indigenous manufacturing capabilities in critical subsystems.
