What MET Engineering does

MET Engineering Technology Solutions, founded in 2000 and headquartered in Ankara, Turkey, is a private engineering company that designs, manufactures, and supplies mechanical systems for the defense and automotive industries. The company operates with 11-50 employees and generates revenue through two primary streams: custom system design and manufacturing (one-time project-based contracts) and engineering services including finite element analysis, design validation, and system modernization. All products are engineered to meet MIL-STD military standards, with quality assurance including 10-year part traceability.

The company's core product portfolio spans defense-grade mechanical systems including Missile Cases (MIL-STD-648D and MIL-STD-810G compliant with 2.6m drop security and 5m depth sealing), High Pressure Test Chambers (up to 470 bar), Solenoid Valves (400 bar working pressure, under 15ms response time), Loose Cargo Test Systems, Pneumatic Launchers for counter-measure decoys, and Pneumatic Guns (PG1) for rescue operations. Supporting services include mechanical system design, defense system modernization, launching system development, chassis cooling systems, and FEA-based virtual testing. Products are shipped globally under company insurance.

The go-to-market model is direct enterprise B2B sales targeting defense and industrial companies, with sales inquiries handled via direct email contact. The company has vertical segmentation across defense (primary), automotive (primary), and strategic sectors including aerospace, marine, energy, health, and space. Pricing is not publicly disclosed and is quote-based. The company maintains no disclosed institutional investors, parent company, or venture capital backing, operating as an independently held engineering firm with global reach through direct client relationships.

Broad incumbents

• ASELSAN: Turkey's largest defense electronics company supplying MIL-STD-qualified products to the Turkish Armed Forces. Comparable as a Turkish defense engineering peer targeting the same customer base, though ASELSAN operates at vastly greater scale across electronics, radar, and communications.
• Havelsan: Turkish defense software, simulation, and electronic systems house. Comparable as another Turkish defense engineering services peer serving the same public-sector defense buyers, though Havelsan is far larger and software-centric.
• TÜBİTAK SAGE: Turkish defense R&D institute focused on missiles, warheads, and energetics. Comparable as a Turkish defense engineering and R&D peer operating in MIL-STD-qualified defense subsystems, though SAGE operates at much larger scope as a state research body.
• Turkish Aerospace Industries (TAI): Turkish aerospace platform manufacturer producing fixed-wing aircraft and helicopters. Comparable as a Turkish defense peer in MET's served market; TAI is also a potential customer for MET's helicopter extra fuel tanks and aerospace chassis cooling systems.

Direct peers

• Meteksan Savunma: Turkish defense electronics firm producing radar, sonar, and platform subsystems. Comparable as a small-to-mid Turkish defense engineering peer operating in MIL-STD-qualified subsystem niches with a similar size profile.
• Roketsan: Turkish missile and rocket systems manufacturer. Directly comparable as a Turkish defense engineering firm in the missile/ordnance domain; MET's missile cases and pneumatic counter-measure launchers are designed to interface with Roketsan-style platforms, making Roketsan both a reference peer and a likely customer.
• Katmerciler: Turkish manufacturer of tactical armored vehicles and special-purpose platforms. Comparable peer in Turkish defense vehicle manufacturing with similar end customers and product-overlap in chassis and platform accessories.
• BMC Otomotiv: Turkish producer of tactical and military vehicles including the Kirpi MRAP. Comparable as a similarly sized Turkish defense vehicle manufacturer sharing customer base and overlapping on chassis, mechanical, and platform-subsystem work.
• FNSS: Turkish manufacturer of tracked and wheeled armored combat vehicles. Directly comparable as a peer in the Turkish defense vehicle ecosystem; FNSS is also a potential customer for MET's military transmission gear boxes and chassis subsystems.
• Nurol Makina: Turkish defense contractor producing armored vehicles and weapons platforms. Comparable as a Turkish peer in the defense vehicle and platform-subsystem ecosystem with similar customer-base overlap.
