Otokar and Leonardo integrate Tulpar AFV with HITFACT turret in tests

Otokar and Leonardo have completed integration and live-firing tests of Leonardo's HITFACT MkII 120 mm turret on the Turkish Tulpar tracked armoured fighting vehicle. Testing included static and dynamic firing with training and live ammunition following earlier preliminary integration of the turret and hull. The companies said the full integration effort was pursued in response to end-user interest, strengthening the Tulpar-HITFACT configuration as a potential export offering.
