Aselsan is set to unveil an enhanced configuration of its GÖKSUR Point Defence Missile System (PDMS) at the upcoming Euronaval 2024, scheduled to take place in Paris from 4-7 November 2024.
It will reveal the new version, dubbed GÖKSUR 100-N, which will have a launcher capable of housing 20 missiles.
The GÖKSUR 100-N features the GÖKSUR IIR missile, originally designed for air-to-air engagements and now adapted for maritime defence.
This infrared (IIR)-guided missile enables 360o target engagement and rapid deployment in challenging sea conditions and multi-threat environments.
The system's turret stabilisation allows for swift manoeuvring, enhancing its defensive effectiveness.
It is equipped with an advanced fire control system that incorporates artificial intelligence (AI) and offers mid-course guidance to counter modern anti-ship threats.
Its ability to handle simultaneous multiple engagements significantly boosts a vessel's operational flexibility and situational awareness.
Aselsan has also developed various configurations of the GÖKSUR PDMS, including the GÖKSUR 100-N VLS, a flexible and modular vertical launcher system, and the GÖKSUR 100-N/StA, a standalone turret option.
These modular solutions cater to diverse air and missile defence requirements.
Aselsan president and CEO Ahmet Akyol said: “As Aselsan, we are excited to showcase our expertise and innovative solutions in the naval domain at Euronaval, and to introduce the new version of our GÖKSUR Point Defence Missile System.”
In addition, Aselsan will showcase a range of naval electronic warfare systems, underwater technologies, advanced naval communication solutions, and electro-optical systems at EURONAVAL 2024.
The exhibition will also feature the GÖKDENİZ close-in weapon system, MARLİN uncrewed surface vehicle, DÜFAS low-frequency active sonar system, and DERİNGÖZ autonomous underwater vehicle.
