Turkish Aerospace Industries, known as TAI or TUSAŞ, is the Turkish state-owned aerospace and defence company that builds the aircraft, helicopters and unmanned aerial vehicles gathered under this make. It was incorporated under the Ministry of Industry and Technology on 28 June 1973 to reduce Turkey's dependence on foreign defence suppliers, and in 1984 a Turkish and American joint investment company was set up under the name to manufacture F-16 fighters, integrate their on-board systems and flight test them. After Turkish shareholders bought the foreign shares in 2005 the company was restructured and merged into the single Turkish Aerospace Inc., a technology centre for the development, modernisation, manufacture and support of aviation and space systems. Beginning with licensed work on the F-16, the CN-235 and the Agusta A129 Mangusta, which became the T129 ATAK, it moved in the 2010s to its own designs: the Anka drone first flew in 2010, the Hürkuş trainer in 2013, the T625 Gökbey helicopter in 2018, and the Hürjet jet trainer and Anka-3 flying wing in 2023, followed by the Kaan fighter in 2024.
