@Anmdt there you go mate

Unmanned Soldier to the Depths of the Blue Homeland: STM NETA


STM introduced the National Unmanned Autonomous Underwater Vehicle STM NETA at the SAHA EXPO Fair. STM General Manager Ozgur Guleryuz:

"Our ‘STM NETA 300’ shallow water underwater vehicle, which we introduced today, is just the beginning for us and the first member of the family. The first mission of the STMNETA 300 will be the detection, classification and identification of mines."

"STM NETA 300 will offer solutions that will meet both military and civilian needs thanks to its modular and flexible design, high level of autonomy, and unique software. We aim for a product family that can perform tasks ranging from military reconnaissance, surveillance, intelligence gathering, contribution to submarine defense warfare, and destruction of explosives to civilian pipeline inspection and geophysical research. After intensive work on the first member of the family, STM NETA 300, we have moved on to the pool and sea tests phase. We will share these images very soon."

The Unmanned Autonomous Underwater Vehicle “STM NETA 300”, developed by STM engineers with local and national resources, is the first member of this family. With its compact structure and flexible, modular design, the STM NETA 300, which can be carried by two people, has the capacity to operate at depths of up to 300 meters. STM NETA 300, which can reach a maximum speed of 5 knots, is equipped with a battery that can operate for up to 24 hours. The national İOSA will contribute to the Mine Countermeasure (MKT) Operation at a depth of 300 meters.

The awaited moment has come!

National Unmanned Soldier to the Depths of the Blue Homeland: #STMNETA

#MilliMühendislik The work of our power, the first member of our Unmanned Autonomous Underwater family, STM NETA 300, will undertake the protection of the depths in #MaviVatan thanks to its modular and flexible design, high level of autonomy, and unique software! STM NETA's first operational mission will be the detection of mines.


Appreciate 🥰 The UAV has Synthetic Aperture Sonar or side scan sonar?

I wonder if this project will turn into Turkey's version of the ghost shark submarine.

Meanwhile we have seen STM's bid for the Mine Hunter Vessel, lost to Dearsan design;

STM seems to have provisioned a hangar like structure behind the exhaust pipes to store both the USVs and UAVs, while the rear part seems elegant, the fore section and mast seems out of the date. The requirements are unclear but assuming that STM had some insider information, we may see similar adjustments on the Dearsan's design.

Both. Please read the provided link.

On the left, military variant has synthetic aperture sonar, while on the right, the commercial / scientific variant has a side scan sonar. Left one is also slightly larger in comparison to the right one, and doubting if this is the kamikaze version of it. Speaking intrinsically it should have a high performance propeller - motor to sustain higher speeds, and sprint at the last phase and does not need expensive side - scan synthetic aperture sonar.

24 hours at 5 knots at a single charge is a good endurance for an AUV - UUV.

Am I right in assuming that smart buoys are not considered military equipment, and that's why we won't be seeing them in these fairs ?

So in a way we won't have companies competing to make the bestest and baddest smart buoy ?

I don’t know which one is which but at the risk of derailing the subject, I must say that the top one looks like a WW2 vessel. It looks like Coustea’s Calypso tbh

Most important part is AIP. Is there any update on where Türkiye's companies are with AIP?

MKEK's Denizhan 76/62mm National Naval Gun (NNG could be nice code btw) will be deployed on MİLGEM İstif class 9-10-11-12.

A Supply Agreement for 4 set of Denizhan 76/62mm National Naval Guns was signed between MKE and TAIS – OG and STM partnership.

Was it confirmed before that this gun is also capable of air defence duties?

Thanks mate, just saw that MKE mentioned it as anti-air as well, so I got curious. I wonder how capable it'll be in that role.
I don't know the exact figures for the gun or the type of the shell, but Super Rapid used to be considered as a limited but purposed CIWS and AD gun.

But with no matching to the SR's rate of fire and lack of programmable / fused shells, MKE 76mm will have a very limited capability in that purpose.
