A New Era in Underwater Security: METEKSAN SUVDES Submarine and Underwater Vehicle Detection System
Meteksan Defence is showcasing its next-generation underwater detection system, SUVDES, for the first time at the IDEF 2025 fair. SUVDES will provide advanced underwater threat detection capabilities at strategic locations such as military and civilian critical infrastructure, port entrances, and straits.
Designed to protect ports, naval bases, and critical facilities, SUVDES reliably detects submarines, unmanned underwater vehicles (ROV/AUV/UUV), diver delivery vehicles, and similar threats. Through multi-sensor integration and a user-friendly interface, the system delivers real-time alerts and enhanced situational awareness.
SUVDES is developed to be compatible with existing security systems such as WAIS/AIS, radar, cameras, and night vision systems, thanks to AI-powered detection and classification algorithms. Its modular and scalable design offers easy integration and customization to meet specific operational requirements.
Adil BAKTIR, General Manager of Meteksan Defence, made the following statement about SUVDES:
“As Meteksan Defence, we have extensive experience from many years of work in underwater acoustics. With this expertise, we developed the SUVDES Submarine and Underwater Vehicle Detection System to protect critical facilities such as ports, naval bases, and offshore platforms from underwater threats. SUVDES will play a vital role in the detection and early warning of threats like submarines and unmanned underwater vehicles. With its advanced capabilities and comprehensive threat detection, SUVDES will provide enhanced security by offering early warnings at the critical points where it is deployed.”
Sualtı Güvenliğinde Yeni Dönem: METEKSAN SUVDES Denizaltı ve Sualtı Aracı Tespit Sistemi
Meteksan Savunma, geliştirdiği yeni nesil sualtı tespit sistemi SUVDES’i ilk kez IDEF 2025 fuarında sergiliyor. SUVDES, askeri ve sivil kritik altyapılar, liman girişleri ve boğazlar gibi stratejik yerlerde gelişmiş sualtı tehdit algılama olanağı sunacak.

Will they test Toygun and Karat with KE? Will KE get the same version as KAAN or smaller ones?

Same. It will fly on both Kaan and KE in 2026. It might fly on KE this year.

Interesting article about Yildirim-100 (in German)
www.telepolis.de
A new laser weapon blinds drones and missiles – for a fraction of the cost of a Patriot shot. Is this a turning point in air defense?
The Turkish defense company Aselsan has developed YILDIRIM 100, a laser weapon system that combats drones and missiles in an unusual way: Instead of destroying them, it blinds their sensors, causing attackers to miss their target.
The only costs per deployment are electricity – a drastic difference to conventional defense systems such as the American Patriots, where each shot costs four million US dollars.
The laser beam isn't powerful enough to damage missiles or drones. However, it is sufficient to disrupt and blind their sensitive infrared sensors. This causes the missiles to lose their orientation—they essentially become blind and can no longer aim at their target. When attacking aircraft or ships, the blinded missiles usually crash into the sea or disappear into the atmosphere.
Türkei überholt USA: YILDIRIM 100 könnte Patriot-Raketen überflüssig machen
Neue Laser-Waffe blendet Drohnen und Raketen – für einen Bruchteil der Kosten eines Patriot-Schusses. Ist das ein Wendepunkt in der Luftabwehr?

Blinding instead of destruction – this is how the system works
The YILDIRIM 100 system uses DIRCM (Directed Infrared Countermeasure) technology. A radar-based seeker detects incoming missiles and transmits the information to the laser unit, which then directs concentrated laser energy at the attackers' seeker heads.The laser beam isn't powerful enough to damage missiles or drones. However, it is sufficient to disrupt and blind their sensitive infrared sensors. This causes the missiles to lose their orientation—they essentially become blind and can no longer aim at their target.

The Americans and isrealis already have it secondly it says in the title that it would make Patriot missiles useless I mean that says all about the of the articleInteresting article about Yildirim-100 (in German)

"T-HIK(AEWC) and IHA-AEWC is coming
SSB and ASELSAN signed a contract for the ‘Airborne Early Warning Radar Development Project’ (ALP200A).
The radar system, which will be integrated into manned and unmanned aerial vehicles, will be of critical importance for national AEWC platforms.
The critical design will be completed in 36 months and the prototype in 60 months.
The radar will be tested with a technology demonstration on a selected UAV"

5 years. It takes so long. It says ALP200A, but Aselsan will probably develop a brand new L-band radar. If it is S-band, i don't know how on earth it takes 5 years to modify an existing radar and an existing platform, especially a UAV.
Havelsan can deliver the software and consoles really quickly.

"A protocol was signed between ASELSAN and the Presidency of Defence Industries for the “V/UHF Radar Systems (ALP 400G) Project”
This initiative aims to strengthen our national air defence by developing early warning radar systems capable of detecting low-observable aerial threats like F35
As a member of the EIRS family, alongside the ongoing SEIRS Project, ALP 400G will bolster the early warning capability of the Turkish Air Force and enhance the efficiency of our air defence systems"

Aselsan radar roadmap shows VHF early warning radar delivery in 2029, also shows delivery of the radar subsystem of UAV AWACS and manned AWACS in 2027.
TOYGUN EOTS I am very disappointed with it,due to lack of SWIR mode,contrary aselpod has gone it.
