Turkey has advanced its defense capabilities by testing the mobile anti-drone system Korkut 25 in front of representatives from 15 countries.
The event brought together military experts and industry authorities, who were able to closely observe the system’s performance in simulated combat scenarios, with a focus on neutralizing small aerial threats.
During the demonstration, the system used the AURA radar, featuring active electronically scanned array technology and a range of up to 25 kilometers, to identify aerial targets. After detection, the Korkut 25’s automated turret was activated, accurately directing programmable ATOM 25 munitions against the simulated drones.
These munitions are designed to detonate near the target, releasing a cloud of fragments that significantly increases the probability of a hit. The system is complemented by modern sensors, including thermal cameras, daytime vision, and laser ranging, as well as artificial intelligence algorithms that assist in target identification and tracking.
With an effective range exceeding 1,000 meters, the Korkut 25 is designed to protect military bases, convoys, and strategic positions. At the same time, authorities have already indicated plans to expand the system, including adopting a Tatra chassis and localized production in the Czech Republic and Slovakia, increasing its international presence.
