T129 ATAK, Advanced Attack and Tactical Reconnaissance Helicopter is a new generation, tandem two-seat, twin engine helicopter, specifically designed for attack and reconnaissance purposes.
T129 ATAK incorporates a totally new system philosophy, with new engines (LHTEC CTS 800-4A), new avionics, visionics and weapon systems, a modified airframe, upgraded drive train and new tail rotor. T129 ATAK has been optimized to meet and exceed the performance requirements of the most challenging geographical and environmental conditions.
The first batch of T129 ATAK Helicopters has already been delivered to the Turkish Armed Forces and is in service supporting the missions of the Turkish Army. As an integral member of the NATO alliance, the Turkish Armed Forces have always been at the leading edge of innovative defense technology.
With the strong endorsement of the Turkish Armed Forces, the already significant international interest on the T129 ATAK as a superior alternative attack helicopter is expected to intensify.
