Summary/Abstract: The Republic of Turkey has attempted to establish a national defense industry twice, between the years 1919- 1947 and 1985-2004, from the War of Independence to the present. The first of these attempts, the period of 1919-1947, failed despite all the efforts. The attempt to establish a national defense industry for the second time, on the other hand, has progressed to become a functioning and developing industry since 1985, after a preparation period that could be taken until 1964. The lessons to be learned from the reasons for the failure between 1919 and 1947 play a major role in the success achieved after 1985. The comparison of these two periods is of great importance in terms of understanding the capacity and potential of today's Turkish defense industry.
