It left its Japanese rival behind and took its place in GÖKBEY: Alp Havacilik, which designed and produced the accessory gearbox, which is a very important subsystem of the national TEI TS1400 turboshaft engine that will power the GÖKBEY helicopter, surpassed the equivalent product of Japanese origin with its product.
This accessory gearbox, which operates the accessories that enable the engine and some equipment to do their job, and allows the part that gives the helicopter the first movement to work, fulfilled its duty in the GÖKBEY helicopter, which made its first flight with a domestic engine.
These gearboxes will be used in GÖKBEY with the transition to domestic engines with the 35th helicopter in the second half of 2025.
At the end of this first major design project of Alp Aviation, it received an order for 30 sets of gearboxes

The lifespan of weapon systems will be extended: Alp Havacilik developed products called "bearing or ring gear" for ASELSAN, based on its design ability. It is among the critical components that enable rotation in tower systems, land vehicles, and remote-controlled weapon systems.
With the patented solution containing aluminum-steel bonding used in helicopters and derived from aviation, the function of the bearing gear is increased and its lifespan is extended.
First deliveries will be made at the end of the year, mass production is targeted next year.
The product, which was developed for land platforms and is currently limited to 1.2 meters in diameter, is intended to be used on a larger scale in the future, on large platforms such as the Fırtına howitzer or on naval platforms.
