What ANOVA does

ANOVA Ar-Ge Teknolojileri Sanayi ve Ticaret A.Ş. is a Turkish privately held, 100% domestic-capital defense and aviation engineering company founded in 2003 and headquartered at METU Technopolis in Ankara. The company designs, develops, and manufactures indigenous subsystems and components for military aircraft, helicopters, UAVs, naval platforms, and weapon systems, with its product portfolio organized into four main lines: environmental conditioning systems (ECU, air cycle machines, heating/cooling units, oil coolers, laser and radar cooling systems), aviation fuel systems (fuel transfer pumps, booster pumps, gerotor hydraulic pumps), military power electronics (AC-DC and DC-DC converters from 5W to 2500W), and navigation and weapon subsystems (digital magnetic compasses, AHRS, tilt sensors, ammunition flex chutes, solenoid valves, reduction gears). Underlying capabilities include CFD, FEA, and electromagnetics simulation executed on ANSYS platforms, plus AS-9100- and ISO 9001:2015-certified mechanical/electronic design, manufacturing, testing, and qualification to MIL-STD and DO-160 standards.

The company monetizes through three channels: sale of proprietary hardware to defense and aviation customers, engineering and R&D services across CFD/FEA/electromagnetics, and Technology Development Liability Projects contracted by the Undersecretariat for Defence Industries (SSB). Go-to-market is enterprise field sales with multi-year contracts, quote-based pricing, and direct engagement with Turkish defense primes including Aselsan (Strategic Cooperation Agreement, August 2014) and ROKETSAN (Strategic Supplier Management Program). The company also holds a Strategic Cooperation Agreement with the General Directorate of Military Factories (March 2019) and exports to Azerbaijan, the United Kingdom, Canada, Belgium, and Serbia.

ANOVA operates an expanding group structure with wholly-owned subsidiaries Atlas Global Mekatronik (electromechanical assembly), Mühendislik Bilgisayar (engineering software distribution), HARPAX Sistem Teknolojileri (weapons integration, established June 2024), and GEOM Defence and Engineering (defense quick-connections, established 2023), plus a jointly-controlled subsidiary Numesys Inc. (ANSYS Elite Channel Partner, JV with FİGES A.Ş., founded April 2018). Manufacturing is anchored at a Sincan OSB plant operational since May 2018, with test and integration capabilities at OSTİM (since April 2022) and İvedik (since June 2024), and additional engineering and sales offices in Izmir, Istanbul, and Konya. The company has been recognized on the Deloitte Technology Fast 50 list seven times and the Deloitte EMEA Technology Fast 500 in 2019.
