You are making wild claims without any proof or evidence. If someone dies and Russia share his name, doesn't mean Russians actually killed him. Poland officially confirmed the death of an army general due to natural cause. Believe it or not, people dies for normal reasons. And Frankly, Poles are lot more trustworthy than Russians.



Nope, Ukraine operates four MIM-104 batteries as of now and it is well known that those are deployed at Kiev and Kharkiv. Sometimes one is utilized for SAM ambushes.

Three Iskander SRBM strike happened in two Ukrainian air bases destroying several aircrafts in July and August. Those bases are Myrhorod and Dolgintsevo. Neither is remotely close to Kiev or Kharkiv.
i clearly said the KKB building in Kiev, why it was not protected? you just keep changing the topic..

SARP with 40 mm ATOM

With AI-powered algorithms and open system architecture, the SARP Remote Controlled Weapon Systems become indispensable in the field by enabling early detection and neutralization of drone threats.

I wonder if Mete can be turned into a small guided missile against drones with proximity or timed fuse. It's pretty much a 40 mm grenade with a rocket behind it and a guidance system in front of it, it would have a greater range and might be more accurate.

METE is designed to be used against stationary targets. So IMHO you would need to change a lot parts of METE.

So is a 40 mm grenade, only thing different in ATOM is its electronic fuse so it can explode while still in the air instead of wherever it might it. I can't see why they would need to change "a lot of parts" in Mete on top of a proximity fuse or timed fuse instead of its semi-active laser so that it could fly towards the target and, well, explode.

  • Target moves fast --> Range of METE decreases drastically in comparison to shooting it at a stationary target --> different engine / fuel?
  • The fins?
  • And different electronics because of the first two points?
No?

At very short range mete with timefuse might be effective. İf the target changes position, how could you set timefuse?
Timefuse needs rapid ammunition

Carl Gustav recoiles gun with timefuse would be interesting

Aselsan should operate the Sarp weapon system in integration with the AKKOR system.
The Sarp weapon tower should have a 7.62 minigun.

Are we still taking into consideration small and compact RCWS solutions when we think of counter measures against drones and such ?

Or we just tossing idea around hoping it'll fit inside kids lunchbox at the same time ? I'd be onboard on that... :D

So finally, ASELSAN has delivered C-UAS capability to SARP RCWS (Yes, including 12.7 mm ones)
By my understanding, this is not just about adding Mk19 with Atom on a SARP but a software addition to Sarp consoles, maybe a separate C-UAS mode the operator can activate and use easily.

I would very like to see a Mk19 on Sarp in video though. I wonder how it is different than Şahin directly.

Well, Mete is 50 cm long so lunchbox might be a bit too small but we can definitely fit a launcher with 6 Mete in a school bag for you mate 😁 here's one the Chinese have already done:

Part of the reason why I see potential in Mete as a missile against drones. 4 cm diameter with 50 cm length, we can put a small launcher on a tank for it and it can be easily reloaded as necessary.

Şahin still uses MK19 as far as I know, just with a shortened barrel and autoloader and its range (again iirc) is half of what MK19 itself is. Sarp system can use MK19 but as you said I can't remember seeing it on video either.

I know that it can operate it, there are photos of it, and even Pars SOV vehicles have them. I meant video of it using ATOM in C-UAS role. Aselsan have been working on this for years. Below images should be at least 5 years old.

One other thing remains. How efficient Sarp with Atom can be without Ihtar in place to detect, lead the gun and prime the timer fuse. If it is adequate, it would be a great addition, as we have maybe a thousand Sarps in use already. If it's succesful with already existing 50 cal gun without Ihtar, our armored columns may just be saved from kamikaze drone threat altogether without the need for additional vehicles with C-UAS role, carrying an Ihtar on top.

Are you saying that this is not SARP, but SAHIN?

You can see it in the video below. Or what do you mean?
