TR Altay Main Battle Tank & Related Programs

Friends, shooting down drones isn't difficult; the challenge is detecting and tracking them. There's not a single battlefield-proven system in the world, including the ones we've developed. Currently, the most practical solution is to train soldiers to intercept drones with shotguns and then launch counter-drone attacks.

Detecting and stopping bird-sized drones that use fiber optic cables and approach from low altitudes with automated systems is currently near impossible.

All of these weapons and detection systems have been tested and developed in the field, and this will continue until the best solution is found.

Nothing at all, I only mentioned that because I saw the Sarp 25, and I believe being able to reload from within the tank if necessary (even if just one more case) could be important. Plus, I trust Aselsan with their turrets and electronics more than I trust Unirobotics with their turret and 25 mm ATOM is ready now. Oh, and Venom is not that much lighter than 25 mm cannons Aselsan mentions in the brochure but I believe its recoil is far less than others.

25mm is very strong caliber, its recoil much more than 30x113. Also 30 x113 mm gives more ammunition capacity which is very important for CIWS.

Venom cannon really has less recoil and I don't think it weighs 1 ton!
