  1. AVIATION INDUSTRY HISTORY IN TURKEY AND IN THE WORLD

  2. Aviation Industry Initiatives In Turkey • Industrialization in Europe: 1903-1909, England, France, Germany, Italy • 1913 Hungarian Proposal: A draft agreement on the proposal for the establishment of the Aircraft Factory and the Flight School in Istanbul following the Balkan War: • School education period 6 months • Teachers and equipment to be supplied from the factory • The company will establish an aircraft factory next to the school • Engines to be taken from where the government deems it appropriate • Turkish workers to be employed over time • A number of aircraft will be available for purchase • Civil training will also be provided • New inventions will be kept confidential

  3. 1914, OtherInitiation: At the military factory, two technicians received permission to manufacture planes, without any consequences. • 1916 GermanInitiation: A delegation from the German Ministry of War for the installation of the Aircraft Factory was brought, a negative report was given due to technical insufficiency, and the German company Stinnes gave up the same reasoning. • Between 1914 and 1918, 200,000 aircraft and 250,000 engines were manufactured in Europe.

  4. (1923) 30 Ekim, Cumhuriyetin ilk sabahı.. • Türkiye Cumhuriyeti Devleti'nin nüfusu 13 milyon, • 11 milyon insan köylerde yaşıyor. 40 bin köy var, 37 bininde okul yok, postane yok, dükkan yok. • 30 bin köyde, yani  her4 köyün 3'ünde cami yok. • Traktör sayısı sıfır (0). biçer döver sayısı 0,  ayçiçeği üretimi yok., şeker üretimi yok. ekmeklik un ithal,  pirinç ithal.. • Bütün memlekette sadece 5000 hektar alan sulanıyor. • 5000 köyde sığır vebası var. Hayvanlar kırılıyor, insanlar kırılıyor, • 1 milyon kişi frengili, 2 milyon kişi sıtma, 3 milyon kişi trahomlu. Verem, tifo, tifüs salgını var. Bitle başa çıkılamıyor • 13 milyon nüfus,  6 milyon hasta.

  5. Memlekette sadece 337 doktor var , sadece 60 eczacı var 8'i Türk. • Hemşire sayısı sadece 4 • Diş hekimi sayısı 0 (sıfır). • 40 bin köy var, ebe sayısı sadece 136

Kaderin bizim kuşağımıza yüklediği bir görev var. Özgür bir toplum oluşturmak, çağdaşlaşmak, bu ideali gerçekleştirmek zorundayız. Bu görevin ağırlığını ve onurunu seninle paylaşmak istedim. Allah yardımcımız olsun.."

  8. Aviation Industry Initiatives In Turkey EarlyRepublicanEraAviationIndustryInitiatives: Republican leaders know the importance of aviation and related industrialization very well. • Atatürk's Aviation Strategy: • Strong Air Force • NationalAir Warfare Industry • People Participation in Aviation (Donatios)

  9. Republican EraAirIndustryInitiatives «After that, all our aircraft and engines should be built in our country and our air warfare industry should be formed according to this principle. Considering the importance of the Air Force, it is necessary to plan this project and keep it alive with the importance that it deserves.» (Atatürk, 1925)

  10. AirIndustryInitiatives • State Enterprises (TOMTAŞ) • THK undertakings • PrivateSectorEnterprises General (R) Abidin ÜNAL, Former Commander of TAF

  11. «Tayyare ve Motor Türk Anonim Şirketi»: TOMTAŞ • The most serious state project in accordance with Atatürk's Aviation Strategy • German Junkers Company. The Treaty of Versailles forbade aircraft production in Germany.

  12. TOMTAŞ • Contract with the German Junkers Company: • All planes will be purchased from Germany until the plant is operational • TOMTAŞ will produce and revise the aircraft and engine we need • Aircraft and engine plant to be established in Kayseri • All types of machinery-equipment to meet with Junkers • Repair center will be established in Eskişehir • The company will also carry out cvilairline transportation and operations • The Company shall be authorized to seek oil and mineral in Turkey.

  13. TOMTAŞ • The goal of the state is to reach 1000 aircraft in 4 years. Every 4 years to produce 250 refresh aircraft. • The Company has equal partnership established with the capital of 3.5 Million Lira. (TTC/TAA is shared with 125 thousandliras) 120 German, 50 Turkish staff (trained in Germany) will work

  14. TOMTAŞ • It was opened on 6 October 1926. • Firstly 30 German A-20 Mounting and 3 F-13 production • Maintenance, repair and overhaul of aircraft in the inventory • On 3 May 1928 the Germans withdrew. TOMTAŞ was transferred to the Turkish Aviation Association withthecost of 520 Thousand Liras • 1931 theFactorywas attached to MOD.Withthe name of «Kayseri Aircraft Factory» production, maintenance and revisions were continued.Today it is «Kayseri AirSupplyandMaintanance Center» • German Lufthansa again interested in 1937, but failed

  15. AirplanesandGlidersProduced in TOMTAŞ: • Installation of 20 A-20 in 1926 • 1927 Production of 3 F-13 • 1933-1939; 22 Curtiss Hawk 2production, 24 CurtissHawk 2 assembly

  17. AirplanesandGlidersProduced in TOMTAŞ: • In 1935, 27 units of Gliders • 1941-26 MilesMagisterproduction • It was used as a maintenance and repair center after Miles Magister, therewerenomoreproduction

  18. TurkishAviationAssocaition: THK/TAA • In1919 the “TurkishTransportAssociation“ was formed in Istanbul. • 16 February 1925, “Turkish Aviation Association“ was established. Atatürk determines the purpose: • To develop the foundations of aviation industryandenhance it. • Explain military, economic, social and political importance of aviation. • Ensuring the development of military, civil and touristic aviation. • Training staff. • To train Turkish youth in aviation.(Uçan gençlik)

  19. TAA/TTC • 1925 Evaluation of Prime Minister İsmet İnönü who participated in the First Grand Congress of TAA/TTC: «When we say aviation, we think of the aircraft, the aircraft engineer, from the most scrap parts tothe most sensitive parts.Whileenhancingtheaircraftengeneering as a nationalability at thesame time allthepartshaveto be manufactured indeginiously, in additiontothatall relatedbasic materials to be removed from ournational reserves. To summarize we aim to bring together the experts who has technical skills and the courageous pilotswho will use these planes with full competence and courage.»

  20. TAA/TTC • Between 1925 and 1935, 54 million Turkish Liras was transferred to the Turkish Air Force and 350 donation aircraft were transferred. • Prime Minister İNÖNÜ at the TAA/TTC Fifth Grand Congress: «The average should be 500 aircraft to Turkey's air defenses. This is 30 million liras of money. It is necessary to wait many years to meet this budget. Moreover, for the maintenance of the planes takes theother 30 million lirasannually. The annual airbudget of the somemajor states is around 150-200 million lira. ... Turkey in terms of the presence of air still needs to be prepared accordingly knowing that there is no other choice but to rely on our own power.» • TTC became the THK (TAA) in the 6th TTC 6th Congress in 1935 and TÜRKKUŞU was established to train the Flying Youth which is one of the aims of the institution.

  21. TAA • In 1935, a maintenance and revision workshop was established for Türkkuşu. It was established to provide services to the Airlines and Air Force. • The study commissioned by the scientists who fled the Second World War. TheCommissionevaluatedKırıkkale, Istanbul, Kayseri, Eskişehir factoriesandexaminedshipyardstalls in Istanbul,and workshops in Sivas. TheCommission has concluded that the production capacity of the aircraft in Turkey. Suggestions: . Increase Türkkuşu’ maitanance workshop toaircraftfactorylevel. . Establishment of Engine Factory. . Production of domestic raw materials. . Development of auxiliary industry. . Establishment of wind tunnel.

  22. THK/TAA aimed to implement this program; • Türkkuşu workshop transformed into aircraft factory (with R & D unit) • Gazi Engine Factory was established • Gazi Wind Tunnel was established.

  23. .THK Eti Aircraft FactoryAirplane and glider production (including Design Center were made)

  24. THK Eti Aircraft FactoryProductions THK-1 2 SeaterGliderTHK-2 Training Aircraft, 12 units

  25. THK Eti Aircraft FactoryProductions • THK-3AerobaticPlane, largeamount • THK-4 Training Glider • THK-5Miles Magister, 2-PersonTraining Aircraft, produced in large quantities and blocked 26 aircraft orders from Denmark

  26.

  27. THK GAZI ENGINE FACTORY • THK Headquarters said«As each bird flies with its own wing, every nation must fly with its own plane. Withoutaviation a nation can not be defended. Forthatreason aviation industry should come first.» Engine Factorywasindispansiblepart of theaircraft factory, which is like meat and nails. • Contact with American and British firms has failed. • The General Staff and Air Forces supported the idea of an engine factory, provided staff and contributed to the training. • Gazi Engine Factorywas opened in October 30, 1948. 141 personnel (9 engineers, 11 designers, 12 foremen, 25 officers, 66 workers, 8 employees), has a modern plant with an annual production capacity of 200 engines at 145 horsepower.

  28. Produced at Gazi Engine Factory: • 60 pieces Gipsy-Major engine • 120 engine revision • Small diameter motors • Factors that prevent the development of the factory • Customer wasstate, but it did notsupportenough • Dispute with foreign engineers, politics, • more civil servant thanworkers • Developments in the West: • The Jet Age starts, • Air Force wants jet engine, • Enterprise insists on pistoned engine • Doctrine of TRUMAN and US aid (1947-1949) • Marshall Aid (1950-1953)

  29. Whathappened? • In the General Assembly of THK 1952, it was decided to transfer aircraft and motor factories. It was transferred to MKEK for 4 MTL. • Etimesgut Aircraft factory continued production until 1955. TheFactory produced 60 UĞUR-IV typeaircraftfor Air Force. • In 1954, Gazi Motor Factory was transformed into a TRACTOR factory with the partnership of a US company and Ziraat Bank.

  30. THK ANKARA WIND TUNNEL (AWT) • AWT, which started in 1947 and was completed in 1950, is a very important skill for aircraft design and prototype experiments. • There were only 4 in Europe. It is a Subsonic Wind Tunnel. It is revised in 2000s and uses byTUBITAK-SAGE.

  31. Why did the air warfare industry fail in its attempts? • The answer can be found in both; • THK's 1948 «Protection of AirWarfareIndustryandDevelopingReports" and • Difficulties in the SecondWorldWar and followingdevelopments

  32. TAA/THK’s 1948 Report TAA/THK’s 1948 Report: • AirIndustryshould be organized as a whole by the government • For the regular operation of THK aircraft and engine factories, the collection of the relevant state industry branches as an economic entity under a state authority. • AirForce’srequirementshaveto be plannedanddeclared as a long-term program by the General Staff • According to this program, aircraft orders (takingintoaccountdomestic production of aircraft) from domestic industrial facilities

  33. TAA/THK’s 1948 Report: • Aircraft to be used in other works of the state and public serviceshaveto be produceddomestically • Establishment of institutes and laboratories for scientific and technical research and experience, and permanent supportbystate • Utilization of the air industry by the existing legal exemption(tax.
