ASELSAN has completed the tests of the Göker 35 millimetre Multi-Purpose Weapon System, developed for air and land defence missions. The system is ready for duty.
According to ASELSAN"s A Bulten publication, the company conducted fire tests with Göker System. Operational tests and capability demonstration firings of the Göker 35 millimetre Multi-Purpose Weapon System were carried out with ASELSAN’s resources and were completed at the Defence Ministry Karapınar Fire Range.
The Göker System has been designed to prevent the intrusion of air
platforms flying at very low altitudes and land defence. It is deployed in stations
at the border.
The system uses “ATOM 35 millimetre Air Burst Ammunition” as a power multiplier to provide effectiveness against air targets such as mini/micro UAVs, model planes and helicopters at over four kilometres. The system will provide deterrence against land targets at a range of more than five kilometres.
