Recently, the correctness of the information was found that Turkey has produced a product that few countries in the world produce. This is HY-100 steel which is mainly used in submarines and is a necessary material in the defense industry. As noted, the Defense and Security Systems company produced this product which is very important in the defense industry and which no country exports.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The product exhibited at the Defense Industry Exhibition IDEF’23 held in Istanbul in the past days is one of the milestones of this transformation. The issue of submarine steel is actually one of the most complex issues in this field. In this sector, which requires very high technology, Turkey has always met its needs from other countries, mainly from Australia.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
HY 100 steel is used in the construction of the Seawolf class nuclear fast attack submarines, where the design dictates that the vessel must operate at greater depths than previous designs and therefore withstand increased hull pressure.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
It is no secret that Ankara has faced direct or covert embargoes, especially on defense industry products. Non-dependence on foreign steel is also a harbinger of a new era, at this time Turkey is making serious efforts to develop its naval platforms, especially the M\u0130LGEM and M\u0130LDEM projects, with domestic\/national resources, the Turkish publication notes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Know-how from Finland<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n The company in question, which acquired a majority stake in the Finnish company Miilux in 2019, has been producing high-strength steels at the Manisa plant for a long time. With the approval of Finland’s accession to NATO, significant facilities were provided to the control regime of the company.<\/p>\n\n\n\n The company in question, which acquired a majority stake in the Finnish company Miilux in 2019, has been producing high-strength steels at the Manisa plant for a long time. With the approval of Finland’s accession to NATO, significant facilities were provided to the control regime of the company. Ankara properly managed Finland’s NATO accession process with regard to the transfer of armor steel production technology.<\/p>\n\n\n\n This type of steel is a key element that human life relies on hundreds of meters under water. Miilux has been making serious investments and R&D activities in steel in recent years. In 2019, Ankara made an extremely valuable technology transfer when OYAK Group acquired the Finnish-based company Miilux, which specializes in the production of heat-treated steel. A sample of the highly efficient and durable HY-100 steel was reportedly delivered to the Turkish Navy in May 2023.<\/p>\n\n\n\n The steel plates are supplied from the iron and steel factories in Eregli. It is then transported to the Miilux facility in Manisa, where it is transformed into high-strength HY-100 steel, the thickness of which can vary between 15 and 60 mm. It is known that the company’s goal in the near future is to produce the HY-130, which will have more durability than the HY-100.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Recently, the correctness of the information was found that Turkey has produced a product that few countries in the world produce.
