Yup, at this point they're on their way to cover the whole naval sphere.

1. 76mm SRGM, reverse engineered OTO Melara
2. 20mm CIWS, partially based on Phalanx
3. two offerings of missile based CIWS similar to US SeaRAM
4. multiple RWS ranging from 12.7mm to 30mm
5. ASW rocket
6. Lightweight torpedo
7. Heavyweight torpedo
8. The whole HISAR/SiPER system is ready to be navalized; a complete SAM system
9. ATMACA AShM
10. GEZGIN cruise missile, analogous to Tomahawk
11. The ground based S-band and X-band radar can be navalized
12. Similarly the ground based EW system can be too
13. And lastly the Multirole VLS

They've covered pretty much everything at this point
127mm gun also under development.

Turkish Offerings

Tried a bit to make sense of the Turkish defence industry. This list is in no way exhaustive, there are many things that are missing. (like Akkor APS)

It basically lists a specific category and the Turkish offering in that. It also list the status, together with the number of countries it has been exported to.

NOTE
1. Items purely in concept or mock-up phase like Aircraft Carrier have been left regarding their uncertainty.
2. All the items that can't be exported like those under MCTR Regime are omitted in this list.
3. This list intentionally skips obvious systems like ammunition, unguided rockets, ballistic protection, fuzes, etc.
4. Systems primarily for civilian market or used in very small numbers or systems about to retire are omitted despite the possibility of export to keep the list concise.
