Defense Advisory & International Trade
Harland Strategic advises defense manufacturers and sovereign procurement bodies on the structure and execution of complex international transactions. We operate at the point where regulatory frameworks, ministerial relationships, and commercial timelines converge — and where the margin for error is zero.
Currently active across procurement advisory and market access engagements in the Gulf, Sub-Saharan Africa, and Southeast Asia. Engagements open to qualified counterparties.
EnquireAbout the Firm
We advise on the regulatory and commercial architecture of defense transactions. We bridge qualified manufacturers and procurement authorities. We source and supply equipment against identified procurement requirements. In each mode, the engagement is active and the accountability is singular.
Harland Strategic is the defense advisory division of Batuner Danışmanlık Ticaret Ltd, headquartered in Istanbul and Ankara with contact offices in Bangkok and Kuala Lumpur. Our principal's background spans Stoeger Industries (Beretta Group) and Browning Group. Fifteen years of active sector engagement. It informs every engagement we take.
About the FirmWhat We Do
I
Ministry-side and OEM-side counsel through the full acquisition cycle. Both sides of the table require different advice. We have sat at both.
II
Structured entry into frontier and emerging defense markets. Built on relationships that predate the engagement and will outlast it.
III
Classification, licensing strategy, and end-use documentation from the structure stage — not the shipment stage.
IV
Offset design, co-production frameworks, and long-cycle program documentation that reflects the commitments actually made.
V
Sourcing and supplying defense equipment against specific procurement requirements. From identification to delivery — one accountable counterpart.
