Among the Turkish companies supplying F-35 elements are:
- Turkish Aerospace Industries, which makes center fuselages, composite skins, landing gear doors, weapon bay doors, and air inlets
- Fokker Elmo, which makes 40 percent of the F-35 Electrical Wiring and Interconnection System
- Alp Aviation, which makes airframe structures, landing gear parts, and F135 engine integrated blade/rotors
- Ayesas, which is the sole supplier of the panoramic cockpit display and also makes the missile remote interface
- Kale Aerospace, which makes structural components and components for the F135 engine
