安卡拉讯——土耳其最大的国有关联防务公司阿塞尔桑正寻求与日本企业在水下无人机和防空系统方面建立合作伙伴关系，以便在地区安全环境恶化的背景下拓展亚洲市场。
ANKARA -- Turkey's largest state-linked defense company, Aselsan, seeks partnerships with Japanese companies on underwater drones and air defense systems as it expands into Asian markets amid a worsening security environment in the region.
阿塞尔桑总裁兼首席执行官阿赫梅特·阿克约尔在接受日经新闻等媒体采访时表示：“我们提供的是更快的交付、成本效益、高性能，以及在不同环境下经过验证的系统。”阿塞尔桑旨在利用其防空系统的实战运行数据切入亚洲市场。
"What we offer is faster delivery, cost-effectiveness, high performance, and systems proven in different contexts," Ahmet Akyol, president and CEO of Aselsan, said in an interview with Nikkei and other media. Aselsan aims to leverage real-world operational data from its air defense systems to tap Asian markets.
在2022年爆发的俄罗斯入侵乌克兰持续不断的背景下，阿塞尔桑实现了快速增长。2025年，其防务相关收入同比增长26%，达到44.6亿美元。其优势领域在于雷达、电子战和防空系统，并在土耳其的多层集成防空系统“钢铁穹顶”中发挥核心作用。
Aselsan has been growing rapidly against the backdrop of Russia's ongoing invasion of Ukraine, which began in 2022. Its defense-related revenue increased 26% from a year earlier to $4.46 billion in 2025. Its strengths lie in radar, electronic warfare, and air defense systems, and it plays a core role in Turkey's multilayered integrated air defense system, Steel Dome.
近年来，日本和土耳其一直寻求建立更紧密的防务关系。9月22日的首脑会谈上，日本首相高市早苗提议在防务装备方面开展合作。土耳其总统雷杰普·塔伊普·埃尔多安也强调了两国防务产业合作的重要性。
Japan and Turkey have sought closer defense ties in recent years. At a summit on Sept. 22, Japanese Prime Minister Sanae Takaichi proposed cooperation in defense equipment. Turkey's President Recep Tayyip Erdogan also underscored the importance of cooperation between their defense industries.
阿克约尔表示：“在政治层面，土耳其和日本立场一致。从我们这边来看，必须同日本企业和日本政府一道，寻找建立合作领域的途径。”他列举了极具前景的合作领域，包括用于对抗自杀式无人机的高性价比防空系统，以及保护舰船免受水下无人机攻击的系统。
"Politically, there is alignment between Turkey and Japan. From our side, together with Japanese companies and the Japanese government, we have to find a way to build areas of cooperation," Akyol said. He cited promising areas including cost-effective air defense systems to counter suicide drones as well as systems to defend ships from attacks by underwater drones.
5月5日，在伊斯坦布尔举行的2026年SAHA国际防务与航空航天展览会上，展出了阿塞尔桑的“钢铁穹顶”多层集成防空反导系统和“科尔库特”超短程防空系统。
Aselsan's Steel Dome, a multi-layered integrated air and missile defense system, and Korkut, a very short range air defense system, are displayed at SAHA 2026 International Defence and Aerospace Exhibition in Istanbul on May 5.
阿克约尔表示，与日本政府的讨论已经在进行中。他说：“现在不是等待的时候；而是要尽快采取行动的时候。国防工业革命正在快速推进，”他敦促日本加快考虑采购国防装备。
Akyol said that discussions with the Japanese government are already underway. "This is not the time to wait; it is the time to do something as soon as possible. The defense industry revolution is moving very fast," he said, urging Japan to accelerate its consideration of adopting defense equipment.
关于阿塞尔桑对华立场，阿克约尔表示：“我们的业务和公司政策完全符合北约标准，”暗示该公司优先与西方国家开展业务。土耳其是北约成员国，这使得中国被视为对安全和基于规则的国际秩序的挑战。
On Aselsan's stance toward China, Akyol said, "Our business and company policy is fully compliant with NATO," suggesting the company prioritizes business with Western countries. Turkey is a NATO member, which frames China as a challenge to security and the rules-based international order.
阿克约尔说：“三年前，出口占阿塞尔桑总收入的10%。现在这一比例为25%。我们的目标是到2030年达到50%。”阿塞尔桑成立于1975年，旨在开发国产国防装备，这是汲取了土耳其因塞浦路斯问题与希腊发生冲突后面临武器禁运的教训。
Akyol said, "Three years ago, exports accounted for 10% of Aselsan's total revenue. Now the share is 25%. Our target is 50% by 2030." Aselsan was established in 1975 to develop domestically produced defense equipment, drawing lessons from the arms embargo Turkey faced after its conflict with Greece over Cyprus.
