Arma with Korkut turret

We need Sungur on this.

Would it make sense to fit these with Akkor/Pusat for point defense ?

ironically an AD system needing an AD to defend it. It's paramount that we equip all vehicles with capability to passively extend the range of our radars/sensors for early spotting create a huge web that feeds back intel.

I don't think any air defence system goes so close to the line that where it becomes target of ATGM and RPGs.

true, but looking at how the front has changed to encompass drones and loitering munition, I think it would be prudent to look at PD solution for vehicles like these.

high value vehicles are costly and while IFV seem to be treated like popcorn AD vehicles have higher value, like Howitzers. We've seen how landmines are today and they're just as good as they used to be in the past. Perhaps some sort of PD Jamming system could be utilized.

In that case, main gun is a superior point defence against loitering ammunitions and artillery rounds.
Remember, it uses smart ATOM. Like the one below.

self protection Jamming suite is actually a good idea, works against IEDs.

It's beautiful piece of machine but expensive for sure.

Sword-Kılıç: "New backliner of air defence"

Turkish Iron-Dome will be introduced ? We will wait and see at the media presentation of Roketsan

Is that a 20mm M197 gun? I presume also Sungur MANPAD.

Not too big on 3 barrel for CIWS duty, but could be economical against drones and stuff.

Yes, Tr Mekatronik's

Roketsan Burç Short Range AD System. 4 fixed AESA radars, 20mm Gun, 8 Sungurs on 2 pods on the sides, built on top of FNSS İzci 8X8. And they already made the first firing test for the gun. Looks like another small UAV/kamikaze drone killer.

@UkroTurk

Thanks to UkroTürk üstad, when I see this type of pedestal-mounted or mini turret type low altitude defense system, now the first thing that comes to my mind is Tuzla patrol boats.

Got me thinking.

Digital camo on it very much resembles the current Ukrainian one. Ukraine would love such a system. Wonder if we will see it up north in the near future.

WTF. They went crazy. How many air defense systems are we going to see?
Akıyor maşallah

There is also something on Aselsan‘s stand named Gökkubbe btw.

ZSU 23 Shilka is crying why i am outdated.
Burç will replace all Shilkas especially in the middle east.

IMO This vehicle needs some sort of Pulat/Akkor system.

It's one of those vehicles that'll get taken out because it's moving around a lot due to it's mobility and it's SRAD setup.

If we're going to look at where and how it's going to be used I'd say chances of running into someone with ATGM is quite high.

Aside from being quite versatile it could easily be used as pseudo IFV.

It looks like the Turkish version of the Pantsir but more advanced and cooler
