at the moment, preliminary studies are conducted and configuration of the platform is being evaluated. the project necessitates high-level engineering and technology applications and also a long term realisation period with novel project management processes. meanwhile, in-country development of the main sensor, multi-function phased array radar is targeted to be achieved with the aim of maximum local content contribution, in close cooperation with universities, defense industry and national research institutions. with a similar project management approach implemented in the milgem project, the entire realisation period of the tf-2000 project also purposes to nurture the in-country technology and engineering applications as well as the nationalisation of the critical systems for the national defence industry. in february 2011, the feasibility studies of the submitted rfi documents were completed, stepping forward to the development of a project model.
