Lentatek Exhibits KARGI Kamikaze UAVs in EFES-2024
Lentatek has presented its KARGI’s RF seeker and gimbal EO/IR seeker variants in its booth during the EFES-2024 exercise. The firm is exhibiting both variants of its KARGI, RF seeker, and EO/IR seeker for the first time. KARGI was initially developed to replace Israeli Harpy kamikaze UAVs in the SEAD/DEAD role, which can home into radar signals from air defence systems. Later, Lentatek started developing an EO/IR-fitted version with a gimbal in place of an RF seeker to engage stationary and moving non-radar targets more efficiently. In this regard, KARGI’s EO/IR variant can be considered a counterpart to the Harop, which has a similar layout. KARGI is powered by TEI’s PG-50 internal combustion engine, which produces 50 hp of power. Thanks to the engine, KARGI can reach a range of 800 km. Control via the SATCOM option allows full exploitation of KARGI’s maximum range. Recent developments in warfare, such as the adverse effect of long-range kamikaze UAVs in the Russo-Ukrainian War and threats to naval targets in the Red Sea, render the development and production of these UAVs important as low-cost and conventional deterrents.

EFES-2024: Lentatek Shows SAR on KARAYEL-SU Armed UAV
SATCOM-fitted KARAYEL-SU has been exhibited for the first time with a Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR) integration. Side-scanning SAR can be carried in front of the EO/IR system under the fuselage. Thanks to its lesser degree of susceptibility to visual obstructions, SAR is a wide-area scanning alternative to the EO/IR systems. Due to different wavelengths from the observable light, electromagnetic waves can pass through visual obstructions like clouds, smoke, and fog. For this reason, SAR systems occasionally work in tandem with optical systems for optimal observation performance. KARAYEL-SU, the first version of the KARAYEL family to have SATCOM capability, is powered by a 97-hp internal combustion engine and has an endurance of 20 hours. The UAV can carry a payload of 190 kg (70 kg under fuselage+120 kg under wings). Munitions include ROKETSAN’s MAM-L glide munitions and CİRİT 70 mm laser-guided missiles (Single Pod). Saudi Arabia is a major user of KARAYEL-SU with ongoing local production of the UAV under the name Haboob. Saudi firm GAMI will produce 40 units by 2025. Another interesting display from Lentatek is the hydrogen fuel cells specifically developed for small UAVs. The company aims to increase the endurance of electrically driven UAVs, which usually have limitations in this regard. The fuel cells were exhibited alongside a test platform.

MKE Presents MPT 76 X39mm Rifle Version
Defence Ministry company MKE Inc. presented the MPT 76X39mm rifle version at the Efes 2024 exercise defence industry display area in Seferihisar. The MPT 76 rifle, a Turkiye product, is known for its compatibility with NATO standard 7.62×51mm ammunition. However, the MPT 76X39 mm rifle version takes this compatibility further by being compatible with Russian ammunition. This feature opens up a potential market in former Soviet block countries, where weapons with this ammunition size are in high demand. Additionally, these weapons are widely used in conflict zones like Iraq, Libya, and Syria, offering significant logistic advantages for units deployed in these areas.

ASELSAN Develops C-RAM Capability for KORKUT SPAAG
The C-RAM capability for KORKUT is ongoing within the scope of the GÖKKUBBE air defence system programme, which will cover multiple layers with different systems. The twin 35 mm revolver cannons of KORKUT, armed with ATOM 35 mm airburst ammunition, stand out for their increased hit probability, making them a promising asset for C-RAM missions. However, the current radar suite falls short in tracking RAM threats. At IDEF’23, a scaled model of a C-RAM-capable KORKUT, integrated with the SERHAT radar (now named STR-400G), was showcased. The SERHAT radar, equipped with the ability to detect RAM threats at short ranges, has recently added UAV detection capability with the SERHAT DUAL version. This makes SERHAT the ideal searching radar for C-RAM duties. KORKUT might also be paired with the more capable SURALP (STR) weapon-locating radar, which has a range of 250 km. Both SERHAT and SURALP radars are in service with the Turkish Armed Forces.

Aselsan hat in seinem "Aktivitäts Bericht" aus dem Jahr 2023 bekannt gegeben das dass Stationäre Frühwarnradar ALP-500 G entwickelt wird. ALP-500G wird Bestandteil der zukünftigen ATBM Fähigkeiten der Türkei sein, zu der auch die TF-2000 Zerstörer und die ATBM Fähigkeiten Varianten Product II & III gehören des Langstrecken Flugabwehrsystems Siper gehören.

ASELSAN Develops ALP-500G Fixed Early Warning Radar


ASELSAN has announced the development of ALP-500G fixed early warning radar in its 2023 Activity Report. Compared to ALP-300G, also known as ERALP/EİRS, ALP-500G will be stationed separately in a facility designed for it. The GaN-based radar will be significantly larger, providing greater range and power input. ALP-500G’s longer range will also make it a critical part of Turkiye’s future ballistic missile defence structure that will consist of future variants of SİPER air defence missile and likely TF-2000 destroyers with ÇAFRAD radars and SİPER missiles. Other developments in air defence radars include the SİPER long-range air defence system radars. ALP-310G, a derivative of ALP-300G, as the search radar and AKREP-1000G fire control radar, were used during the firing tests in 2024. CENK-200N naval AESA radar following CENK-400N used on I-class frigates was also revealed in the report. ASELSAN stated a deal was inked with a Southeast Asian country for the radar. The naming indicates that CENK-200N is a down-scaled version of CENK-400N for smaller platforms.

AKINCI UCAV Fires Seeker-Fitted UAV-122 Missiles

AKINCI UCAV Fires Seeker-Fitted UAV-122 Missiles
Baykar’s AKINCI UCAV fired two new versions of ROKETSAN’s UAV-122 aero-ballistic missiles with seekers, lasers and TV. The missiles successfully hit raft-sized sea targets in the tests. The UAV-122 missile’s first version only had a guidance system with GNSS and INS. The addition of seekers offers flexibility against moving and pre-defined targets. The seeker’s location coincides with the white tip on the baseline UAV-122 missile, indicating that the missiles have been designed with the provision for seekers from the beginning. The same feature is likely present on the larger UAV-230 missile. Thus, UAV-230 might also be suitable for seekers shortly. With the successful integration of the laser seeker on the TRLG-122 missile, a variant of the TRG-122 guided artillery rocket, it’s not far-fetched to anticipate ROKETSAN developing a laser-guided variant of the UAV-122 missile in the near future. This advancement could potentially be utilized by the AKINCI and other platforms for laser designation on the target. The emergence of the TV seeker variant marks the first time ROKETSAN integrated this type of seeker on a missile. Previously, the gliding MAM-L smart munition was tested from AKINCI with a TV seeker. ROKETSAN will also use a TV+IIR seeker on its UMTAS-GM Block 2 new-generation ATGM. With their feed to the launching aircraft, TV seekers add a man-in-the-loop capability to the missile. This would provide moving target engagement capability and allow the missile to pick pre-defined targets. Compared to IIR seekers with a similar function, TV seekers are lower cost and easier to manufacture. ROKETSAN’s UAV line of aero-ballistic missiles has been developed from the TRG family of guided artillery rockets with new flight software. The 230 mm UAV-230 can reach a range of 150 km, while the 122 mm UAV-122 can reach a range of more than 55 km.
