Turkish defence firm Meteksan Defence is turning heads at the ongoing show by unveiling new products, including the ULAQ Anti-Submarine Warfare Vehicle, the ULAQ Anti-Surface Warfare Vehicle, and the 6×6 Mobile Coastal Control Station.
The Anti-Submarine Warfare Vehicle, which is among the products in the ULAQ family of unmanned vehicles, has been developed jointly with ARES Shipyard. In May last year, ULAQ made history by successfully destroying its target by firing a missile; it was the first instance of an Unmanned Surface Vehicle displaying such capabilities. The weapon is designed to guard sea borders, naval bases, ports and critical facilities.
In January, Utku Alanç, General Manager of ARES Shipyard, and Selçuk Kerem Alparslan, President of Meteksan Defense, jointly announced that the companies had successfully completed all tests, including the firing tests with the 12.7mm weapon system of the ULAQ-AUSV. The companies would continue working to integrate new systems to ULAQ “within the scope Airbus Secure Land Communications is promoting its mission-critical collaboration and communication solutions for the maritime and defence industries, including Tactilon Agnet, TACTEAM and Workflowmanagement, at the ongoing show.

“Yakamos 2020 Hull Mounted Sonar System has been exported to two more countries after it was started to be used in the MILGEM Corvettes of the Turkish Naval Forces,” Alparslan added “In addition, our success in a field where very few countries are working on in the world, such as NAZAR Laser Electronic Warfare System, indicates us the point we have reached as Meteksan Defence.”

Its products are used for command control, communications, reconnaissance, surveillance, and intelligence purposes.
