The hull type would be trimaran. Difficult to sink :)

It is not an actual trimaran design, they are attaching side-hulls to the base-monohull design ,creating additional buoyancy and deck space for additional weapons.


As seen in the video:
She has got foldable mast, for easy storage in RHIB bays, airlifts.
Dynamic positioning is a good capability to see in such small vessels, it can stay nearly-stationary in streams. Aselsan is finally deploying DIKONS.
20 sonobuoys in ASW variant.

As not seen:
Towed sonar, intercept sonar, dipping sonar similar to the one adopted by Ares.

Would have to be detachable as it's configured to be transportable on various platforms, incl A400m.

I would expect any seeker head design would go through the necessary steps through testing to qualify it for the use cases.
Seeker should be in the rest position till to or shortly before firing. After firing or shortly before firing seeker should be erected and learn the position with the help of gyroscopic system.
Otherwise seeker will meet rugged conditions unnecessarily.

This came out of nowhere. Awesome stuff!

I suspect that these were being worked on for a while, but were initially meant to be manned FAC/missile boats. Unlike the ULAQ which is purpose built for unmanned use, it looks like it's more of an afterthought here. Not that that's a bad thing.

From looking at all the images, it appears as if they will be optionally manned. Not only is there windows wrapping around, but there also appears to be a gap which leads to a door at back. No doubt these were originally intended for manned use. I wonder if they'll remove these aspects in the final version.

The size is bigger than i expected

And I more wonder which sonar from Armelsan is going to be used on this?

The size is for good, If ULAQ can squeeze up to 3 days without moving much, this one, which officially stated to have 4 days endurance can easily squeeze it beyond a week in certain deployments which it doesn't need to move a lot.

Loitoring ammo could be an interesting addition or option. But are the torpedos the LW type ?

Sungur Naval could be introduced with a Quad-Pack allowing an USV weapon station to carry 8 of those.
It means, Sefine's trimaran USV can pack 16 of SHORAD , with 15-16 km, and even more at lower altitudes threat of helicopters and UAVs will be eliminated.

*Not quad-pack but quad-rack

Dear, ordinary Sungur has 7-8 km range, 15-16 km range will be double of it. So Sungur Naval must have longer fuselage.
First time I've heard Sungur-NAVAL!!!
Also quad-pack sounds awesome 😎

the range is almost CAMM's or HisarA+s

It won't be agile like CAMM or Hisar-A+, might be just simple Sungur+ rebranded for Navy like UMTAS (TEMREN) or could be a version with two-way data link and a few upgrades.

While we are already having Bozdoğan , why expanding Sungur, i can't understand?
Folding finned Bozdoğan missile could solve all problems with bigger warhead / datalink capabilities.
