Remote command weapon systems
The marksman is able to use the UKSS effectively and safely thanks to its remote controllability. The systems are able to work in harsh environmental conditions with a thermal imager and a day vision camera on it.
With its high stabilization performance, the UKSS allow the user to easily track moving targets with its automatic target tracking and detection ability, and neutralize them with a high hit rate.
As part of the technology transfer agreement concluded with ASELSAN, UKSS production was transferred to Aselsan Konya. The procurement, production, integration, testing and quality activities of UKSS, which has completed the infrastructure installation and started production in a short time, are carried out by Aselsan Konya.
