In the late 1970s, after the review of the next generation Soviet T-72 and T-80 tank capabilities, Turkey was alarmed to learn that their M48 Patton's would no longer be able to destroy these new tanks in the numbers required to prevent a Soviet occupation of the country if the Cold War were ever to go hot. So Turkey began to search for a tank that could deliver greater lethality eventually settling on the German Leopard 1. Under an agreement signed in Bonn in November 1980, Turkey would obtain a first batch of 77 tanks by 1983. A further 150 were delivered by the end of 1991, and the last units were received by the end of 1994.[41] In 2002 Turkey reached an agreement with ASELSAN Corporation to upgrade the Leopard 1 tanks, prolonging their service life by another 20 years.[42] This modernization ended suddenly in 2009 as a result of the Financial crisis of 2008 and the subsequent shortage of money in the Turkish coffers. Only 170 units were modernized.[39]
M48 Patton  United States
 Turkey
Main Battle Tank A5T2 758[38] The M48 was by far the most fielded tank of the Turkish Armed Forces with 3,008 units active during the Cold War, with the runner-up being the M47 Patton of which Turkey fielded 1,347.[43] Today all units are in reserve and will be replaced by the Altay Tank.

ACV-15 is license built copy of the American AIFV which was presented to the U.S. Army in a 1967 competition but lost out to the M2 Bradley. Turkey decided to acquire this vehicle for its own armed forces in 1989 with the first 285 units built in Belgium; while rest of the vehicles were produced in Turkey between 1992 and 1997 and again between 2001 and 2004. In total 2,945 units were built of which 2,438 would serve in the Turkish Army.[44] The ACV-15 came in 12 different variants: armored infantry use the IFV, AAPC, AFOV, MES-V, CP, MEV, ATV vehicles; artillery uses AMV-81 and AMV-120; the engineers use ARV and the AESV; and the final variant is used by air defense - the Atılgan.[45] The FNSS Corporation continued further development of their ACV frame resulting in the FNSS ACV-19 - a bigger and more capable version of the ACV-15. Two units were produced in 2000 for evaluation, but Turkey chose not to follow on with an order and none are operational with the army today.

BTR-80  Russia Armored Personnel Carrier 535[17] Bought from Russian stockpile between 1993 and 1999.[48] All modernized.
Kirpi  Turkey MRAP 420 (+48)[49] Impressed by the survivability of the American Cougar and MaxxPro MRAPs during the Iraq war, Turkey decided to create its own MRAP bus. Serial production began in 2010 by the BMC with all of the 468 vehicles supposed to be delivered by 2013, but the BMC failed badly delivering only 200 units by the deadline.[50] The following year it declared bankruptcy putting the Kirpi production into serious jeopardy and forcing the government seize the company to protect production while the company restructured.[51] As of May 2015 BMC exited bankruptcy and the production rate begun to increase. Today 620[52] units have been produced, 200 of which are in service with the Turkish Gendarmerie. Kirpi is Turkish for hedgehog.
Cobra  Turkey MRAP Cobra I
Cobra II
1,200[1] Turkey's first MRAP entered production in 1997, design to rectify its predecessors weakness - its mine resistance. Its suspension / wheel base is based on the American HMMWV which led some to mistakenly claim that Turkey actually uses the HMMWV as one of its utility vehicles.[53]
Akrep  Turkey Armored Car 370[1] In 1994 Turkey's first indigenous armored car entered production;[54] it was light and nimble, capable of operating in the country as well as in the city, and had enough armor to protect against small arms. But it had one major weakness - landmine survivability - as was demonstrated during a war against the PKK. So the army suspended its procurement of Akreps in favor of Otokar Cobra, with all the follow on units produced going for export only. Since the mid 2000s Turkey has been selling off its Akreps as the stock of Cobras built.
LAV-150  United States Armored Scout Car 124 [1] Lacking a dedicated vehicle for its reconnaissance batallion's Turkey ordered 124 LAV-150 vehicles in 1992 from the Cadillac Corporation.[55]

 Turkey
 Germany
Multiple Rocket Launcher 80[1] Is the WS-1 variant of the Chinese Weishi Rockets family that Turkey purchased the license to produce in the 1997 after America refused to sell the license to produce the M270,[58] installing them on the German MAN 26.372[1] trucks. It has a maximum range of 100km.
TOROS  Turkey
 FR Yugoslavia
Multiple Rocket Launcher 1 TOROS is a reverse engineered Yugoslavian M-87 Orkan with Turkish designed missiles which have a maximum range of 110km. A single unit was produced in 1997 and underwent evaluation, however no contract followed since then.[58]
M270  United States Multiple Rocket Launcher 12[1] In 1992 Turkey purchased 12 units from US. Later during the mid 90s further 24 units were requested but under the condition that they and the rockets were to be produced in Turkey. US refused and no further acquisition followed.[58]
T-122 Sakarya  Turkey
 Germany
Multiple Rocket Launcher 130+[1] Development for the T-122 Sakarya began in 1995 with mass production commencing in 1997. It's a Turkish version of the Soviet BM-21 MRL with modern fire control and range that Turks doubled to 40km.[59] The German contribution was the MAN 26.372[1] truck on which the system rests.
RA-7040  Turkey Multiple Rocket Launcher 24[1] The RA-7040 was the first indigenously design MLR system development for which started in 1980. It can fire up to 40 70mm rockets which come in 4 different types: anti-personnel HE, anti-personnel flechette, ant-armor, and smoke. By 1983 24 units were delivered and field tests commenced, however, the results proved disappointing with the weapon system struggling to destroy anything beyond 7km - about the range of a heavy 120mm mortar.[60]Further acquisition was cancelled that same year, but the weapon saw service nevertheless in the 1990s during a war against the PKK. All units are in storage since 2005 after being replaced by T-122 Sakarya.

M52  United States
 Turkey
 Germany
155mm SP howitzer M52T 362[1] Originally obtained from the US during the 1950s, by the 1990s the system became woefully obsolete so in 1995 Turkey began a modernization program which saw the SPG get a new turret, digital command and fire control, German 155-mm / L39 gun which replaced the original 105-mm gun, and a new more powerful German diesel engine replacing the original fuel guzzling petrol engine.[62]
M44  United States
 Turkey
 West Germany
155mm SP howitzer M44T 164[1] The first artillery system to be modernized by Turkey, with the help of West Germany, starting in 1987 and ending in 1992.

As the numbers of the new T-155 Fırtına continued to grow the M44T were slowly removed from storage and scrapped.[63]
M108  United States
 Turkey
105mm SP howitzer M108T 26[17] Though modernized in the 80s, in 2014 all units were withdrawn from service into storage and will likely be scrapped as soon as the new batch of T-155 Fırtına is produced.[21]

M115  United States 203mm howitzer 162[1]
Panter  Turkey
 Singapore
155mm howitzer 225[1](+175) Turkey has spent an extensive amount of money modernizing the American artillery pieces but by the late 1980s an assessment on modern warfare requirements concluded that Turkey no longer could compete with artillery of other countries on an equal footing. So in the mid 1990s, and with the help of Singapore Technologies Kinetics, Turkey developed a new 155mm howitzer - The Panther - which entered serial production in 2002.
