Approximately $8 billion worth of contracts are expected to be signed at SAHA Expo 2026 in Istanbul, Türkiye. The major international defence, aerospace and space industry exhibition is being held over five days from 5 - 6 May.
The biennial event is organised by SAHA Istanbul, a network of companies, universities and other institutions working in Türkiye’s defence, aerospace and space industries.
A total of 1,700 companies, including 263 international firms, and 30,000 industry professionals from more than 120 countries are in attendance at this year’s event held at the Istanbul Expo Centre.
The event’s organisers say 203 new products will be introduced, and 164 signing ceremonies held during SAHA 2026.
Among these are the new URAN 105 mm self-propelled howitzer. The mobile, vehicle-mounted artillery system was developed by Turkish state-owned company MKE.
Meanwhile, Turkish drone giant Baykar will display MIZRAK, a smart loitering munition with a range of more than 1,000 kilometres (621 miles) and artificial intelligence-supported autonomous capabilities.
