The Turkish defence industrial base is expanding internationally with the strategic acquisition of Dynaflow Technologies, a South African company specializing in aviation bomb fuzing systems. Announced in May 2025, the move allows Assan Group to secure independent access to advanced fuze technologies—critical components that determine the precision and effectiveness of air-launched munitions.
Dynaflow designs, develops and tests a range of fuzes—including proximity, impact and programmable delay variants—for both NATO and Russian-standard bombs. Its systems use RF, digital and analogue technologies, ensuring resilience against electronic countermeasures. This dual-standard capability enhances Assan’s international competitiveness, particularly in markets operating mixed Eastern and Western fleets.
Assan Group, established in 1985, already produces a wide range of bombs and artillery munitions, including NATO-standard Mk 81–84 bombs and Russian-standard OFAB and FAB series. Integrating Dynaflow’s engineering expertise directly into its production lines will accelerate R&D and strengthen Assan’s global defence portfolio, particularly in aerial bomb fuzing technology.
CEO Gürcan Okumuş highlighted that Dynaflow’s capabilities align perfectly with Assan’s long-term innovation strategy.
