Göktürk-3 is a planned Turkish synthetic aperture radar Earth observation satellite, to be designed and developed under the prime contractorship of Turkish Aerospace Industries with support from ASELSAN and the TÜBİTAK Space Technologies Research Institute for the Turkish Ministry of National Defence. The project is meant to provide high-resolution images of any location in the world, by day and night and in any weather, without territorial water or airspace restrictions, to meet the requirements of the Turkish military. Turkish Aerospace Industries and the Undersecretariat for Defence Industries signed the contract on 8 May 2013, after which the parties began the indigenous design of the satellite and its ground stations. The Ministry of National Defence announced a launch plan for the end of 2019. It belongs to the Göktürk family of Earth observation satellites, alongside Göktürk-1 and Göktürk-2.
