Ursprünglich wollte man dieses Konzept ja mit einem Turm von Cockerill umsetzen.

Die Tulpar Variante mit 120 mm Kanone wurde auf einer Rüstungsmesse in Saudi Arabien vorgestellt. Ich glaube nicht das der Tulpar kurzfristig eingeführt wird, obwohl ein Bedarf sowohl für neue Keeten als auch Radschützenpanzer seitens der türkischen Landstreitkräfte besteht. Das Hauptproblem ist dabei das vom Ausland seit den militärischen Operationen in Nordsyrien keine Motoreb geliefert werden. Der Tulpar würde einen 800 - 100 PS Motor benötigen, diese wären frühestens 2025 verfügbar.

Meinst du jetzt damit den Tulpar als Schützenpanzer? Denn primär ist das ja ein Schützenpanzer welcher den neuen Kampfpanzer ergänzen soll so weit ich dies verstanden habe.

Der leichte Panzer als Version davon wird wohl vor allem auf den Export hin ausgelegt sein.

Ich meine den Tulpar als Schützenpanzer. Ein leichter Panzer hat aber meiner Meinung nach auch andere Vorteile z.B die Luftverladebarkeit, die mit der Präsenz in Libyen oder Somalia an Bedeutung gewinnt.


Eine Alternative zum Tulpar wäre der Kaplan 30 AFV

Welchen von den beiden würdest du besser finden und warum ?

Und ist der Tulpar nicht schon fest vorgesehen ? Ich meinte mal etwas von 400 bestellten Einheiten gelesen zu haben ?!

Es gibt meines Wissens nach noch keine festen Bestellungen, weder vom Tulpar noch vom Kaplan.

Ich persönlich würde zum Kaplan tendieren, gefällt mir irgendwie optisch besser. Sonst dürften sich beide Fahrzeuge nicht viel nehmen. Wichtig wäre auf jeden Fall einen ferngesteuerten Turm zu nehmen der vom inneren Bedient wird.

Zu erwähnen ist auch das ACV-15 von den türkischen Streitkräften modernisiert wurden, dabei haben die Fahrzeuge den Nefer Turm von Aselsan mit 25 mm Kanone erhalten.

FNSS Presents PARS ALPHA AFV
FNSS’s new generation PARS ALPHA 8x8 armoured fighting vehicle has debuted at the “World Defense Show” organised in Saudi Arabia.
PARS ALPHA is the fifth generation of the PARS family of armoured vehicles. Unlike the predecessors, PARS ALPHA’s engine is placed on the front.

PARS ALPHA offers improvements in mobility compared to PARS IV 8x8 of the previous generation. The vehicle can overcome 70 per cent gradients, side slopes of 40 per cent, 2.4-meter trenches, and 0.8-meter vertical obstacles. The previous models could overcome gradients of 60 per cent and smaller trenches. The range is increased to 800 km from PARS IV 8x8’s 600 km, and the maximum road speed is increased to 115 km/h from 100 km/h.

ASELSAN General Manager Ahmet Akyol made special statements to Defence Turk within the scope of the World Defense Show (WDS) Fair, which was held for the second time in Riyadh, the capital of Saudi Arabia, between 04-08 February 2024. In this context, Akyol stated that the GÜRZ air defense system developed by ASELSAN will be introduced to the Turkish Armed Forces inventory.

Making special statements to Defence Turk, Akyol used the following statements:

“Air defense has an important place in ASELSAN’s activities. We brought our GÜRZ air defense system here for the first time. We exhibited it outside Türkiye after the IDEF’23 Fair. We brought the system itself. We have introduced all our products, from KORKUT to SİPER, to end users. We are working on close and very close air defense systems with the relevant authorities here. I find the fair successful in terms of showing the level Türkiye has reached.

We bring together several competencies in GÜRZ’s concept. We have our KORKUT system in inventory. We have a HİSAR system. There is SUNGUR developed by our ROKETSAN. The main purpose of GÜRZ is to be mobile. It also provides very close air defense with its KORKUT equivalent 35 mm ammunition. With the SUNGUR, HİSAR, BOZDOĞAN and GÖKDOĞAN missiles on board, we offer a bunch of competencies on a mobile basis in the same system. It also has an electronic mixing system. We have a very advanced search radar. We have systems behind it such as fire control radar, fire control system, laser range finder, friend or foe identification system. GÜRZ is a system that selects the most effective weapon against different targets with a smart algorithm and can engage at close range. The first shots were fired. Currently, efforts are ongoing to include it in the Turkish Armed Forces’ inventory. We will add it to our army’s inventory within a few years. It’s a game-changing system.”

Zumindest ist es klar: Die Griechen und Türken dürfen ihre US-Kampfflugzeuge nur unter bestimmten Bedingungen und nach Einholung einer Erlaubnis einsetzen. Die USA behalten sich das Recht vor, die Möglichkeit der Nutzung des Flugzeugs zu widerrufen. Es ist klar und deutlich, es ist offiziell, es gilt für die F-35 und die F-16.

ASELSAN’s SURALP Weapon Locating Radar Spotted on Duty

SURALP (STR) Weapon Locating Radar was spotted during Commander-in-Chief of the Turkish Land Forces Selçuk Bayraktaroğlu’s visit to Şırnak. Selçuk Bayraktaroğlu’s inspection visit included a base in the Zinar Mountain, part of the Claw-Lightning Operation Zone, 23rd Infantry Division Command, and 48th Border Brigade Command. The Turkish MoD announced SURALP to have entered the inventory in 2021.

SURALP, developed by ASELSAN to detect and track RAM (Rocket-Artillery-Mortar) group of threats to provide situational awareness and direct fire support assets to respond, was spotted during the visit.

SURALP’s placement is important thanks to the alert and quick response capabilities it brings to the service of Turkish personnel. Terrorist organisations PKK and YPG are known to have attacked the bases in operation zones using mortars and rockets. A range of 250 km (Previously announced as 100 km) can cover a large portion of the operation zone.

FNSS was the subcontractor responsible for maintaining and repairing ACV platforms, including integrating air conditioning systems, heating systems, fire extinguishing, and explosion suppression subsystems. The armour and mine protection levels are also increased.
