Radar and electronic warfare
Radar and electronic warfare are among ASELSAN’s strongest areas. The AESA-based MURAD radar family and the ÇAFRAD multifunction radar developed for the navy are notable examples. In electronic warfare, the KORAL land-based radar electronic-attack system and various signals-intelligence solutions stand out.
Electro-optics and weapon systems
On the electro-optics side, the ASELFLIR-500 reconnaissance-surveillance system, thermal cameras and laser rangefinders are prominent. In weapon systems, remote-controlled stations such as SARP and SERDAR are widely used on land and naval platforms. These systems aim to perform aiming, tracking and firing under armour, without exposing personnel.
Air defence and communications
In air defence, ASELSAN provides the radar, fire-control and command-and-control electronics of systems such as HİSAR and SİPER, while the missile side is mostly ROKETSAN’s. In communications, software-defined radios, data links and satellite terminals form a broad product family.
