ARES Shipyards Produces ULAQ 12 USVs for the Turkish Navy TurDef
ARES Shipyards has announced the completion of the production process for the Turkish Navy's ULAQ 12 USVs in ASuW and ASW configurations.
Turkish Navy will receive ULAQ 12 USV in ASuW and ASW configurations based on a standard hull with different payloads.
ULAQ 12 ASuW fitted with ROKETSAN's modular KMC missile launcher and 12.7 mm RCWS will be used for surveillance and short-range ASuW operations. The USVs can launch UMTAS, L-UMTAS, and Cirit surface-to-surface missiles from the KMC launcher.
ULAQ 12 ASW with various sonar options will support the warships as remote sensors. The USV also has provisions for anti-submarine weaponry, such as torpedoes and rockets.
The shipbuilder is also developing the ULAQ 15 ASuW, a larger variant of the ULAQ 12 equipped with ROKETSAN's ÇAKIR cruise missiles for ASuW operations at longer ranges.
