The Turkish authorities, while continuing to rely on the technological assistance of the United States in the modernization of the fighter fleet, did not sit idly by, developing their own industrial competencies.

An important process has unfolded in the ÖZGÜR project. As part of the modernization of the F-16 Block 30 avionics, the [Turkish] company ASELSAN has started supplying mass-produced subsystems. It is expected that the first aircraft will be delivered [to the military] this year

- noted in the publication SavunmaSanayiST.

ÖZGÜR is a program to improve the avionics of the F–16 Block 30 combat aircraft in service with the Turkish Air Force, in fact to the level of Block 70, which is the most modern configuration of the F-16. A key component of the project was the creation of the main on-board computer, which ASELSAN successfully coped with in 2022 and began to develop auxiliary systems.

The F-16 Block 30, upgraded under the ÖZGÜR program, will be able to use Turkish ammunition and equipment without difficulty thanks to a computer created by its own forces

- indicated in the publication.

At the moment, two prototypes of an improved fighter have been manufactured within the framework of the project, which have shown successful work. Another important component of the program is the equipment of aircraft with the MURAD national radar with AFAR, which is currently under development. It is expected that it will be put into operation this year.
