If this is the old ACV that is going to be updated, then I think it's ok to give it at least a better punch. (Is that a hatch in the front to look out of ?)

On a second note, how difficult would be to turn these into unmanned support vessels ? Perhaps the enemy would have to use NLAW to take out these....

Yeah, the major one, like I said. All I hope is that tracked AFV to carry a large caliber cannon. I am not really much concerned about they put manned or unmanned turrets as much as the gun now.
YNZMA vehicles will have the 35mm Korhan turret both for tracked and wheeled AFVs.

Produced domestically by defense giant Otokar, the ARMA 8x8 tactical wheeled armored vehicle has been recently added to the inventory of the Turkish Armed Forces (TSK), Anadolu Agency (AA) reported Saturday.

In the dynamic landscape of the Turkish defense industry, manufacturers of armored vehicles are spearheading innovation with the introduction of cutting-edge solutions, meticulously developed both domestically and internationally.

As far as I understand it, it's a single vehicle with Yener mine detection system. Still a milestone tho.

No info at all on the YN ZMA program. I remember reading about the first phase of testing being started few months ago.

I get that feeling all companies like Otokar, FNSS and BMC are involved. Still waiting IFV decision (Tulpar!).

As this will be a giant order and important decision TSK is most probably waiting for national powerpack that will be integrated into those.

In my opinion, the SSB should take control here and authorise the Powerpack, which they have long funded, to be used fairly among all candidates, thus forcing the developer/producer to provide integration studies and technical documents fairly, regardless of affiliation. You all know who I am talking about.

But with which engine, after the our eternal 'what engine" question, now this question is slowly showing up. :p

There is BMC's Azra with 600-ish hp, Otokar's Ecotorq with 700-ish hp, and then Tūmosan's rumored engine for FNSS vehicles and naval use (?), and then BMC's Utku with 1000 hp, and lasty shrinked Batu with 1300 hp...

We need it absolutely. You can't use always drones. Mortar strike is vital but top of our mortar vehicles are opened and they arent capable of rapid precise strike as well as direct fire.

Jews stole the idea of breach loading mortar. But autoloader seems from USSR.




Anyway 120mm guided mortar round is great idea. Ammunition is also programmable.
PD( point detonating)
PDD ( point detonating/delay)
PRX( proximity fuze)

What will bring direct fire capability:


You could destroy walls.
With laser guidance you could destroy land vehicles, IFV, even you could damage weak parts of a MBT.

With Delayed fuze you could hit through windows inside buildings.


Edit:

This vehicle should have laser designator so I wonder if the gun could launch LAHAD ATGM? İf yes it is crazy.

The vehicle may encounter a MBT on his way to duty , or in a mission or return from duty. With its 8kg explosive, LAHAT destroys a tank and etc.

Automatic Mortar vehicle plus tank killer.
