I can say the following about Alpin and our unmanned helicopter: Our talks are ongoing not only with the Land Forces but also with the Gendarmerie. At the same time, our work continues with the Naval Forces on the system we call GIHA, which autonomously lands and takes off on ships. As you know, we signed a deck finder contract with Airbus at the last fair. The purpose of this was to enable our aircraft to land and take off autonomously on mobile sea platforms on the deck.”

Guess we have a key issue here to take care of i.e Airbus deck finder... I am not against any cooperation if we can yet localizing this capability for precise, reliable and safe automatic take-off and landing in extreme weather conditions, day and night for our unmanned helicopters is more preferable

Already done. They were present on ASELSAN's 2022 annual report iirc
I can create 3D imagery on my own computer at home too. We usually see finished products at international expos, but I don't remember seeing the finished products in such events. Typically, it takes about five years for our products to be ready and in service after being announced they exists.

Conformal antennas aren't magic. We will probably see them on Kaan P1/2, and also look how you don't see antennas sticking out from Kızılelma, they probably use ASELSANs conformal antennas

Totally relying on UAVs? As you can see Incase of EW they are vulnerable. Unmanned platforms are on the their limits.

Lost control and shot down

Just to say deckfinder does not magically make it happen to land on extreme weather conditions. I don't know what these people call an extreme weather but even S70s has some trouble and multiple landing attempts lasting half hour with an automated arrest&traverse system.

Deck finder, as also referred in the name literally, enables the UAV to find, locate and estimate orientation&speed and respective location of itself to the landing pad (also approximating its position on whereabouts of the platform during landing). It only makes it possibly for UAV to find the platform in harsh weather conditions, doesn't help for landing

Well, most platforms have TACAN receiver&transmitter and uses visual guidance for landing which serves the same purpose, deck finder uses RF emitters and the parts are light in weight and volume, allowing integration on small systems.

The UAV itself is originating from abroad, the deck locating system is from airbus then it makes me wonder what Alpin does here with a platform not matching to S100/200 in capability.

We may as well get schiebel S100/200, in a hundred batch and get a local production, with localized payloads.
