🇹🇷 Four Turkish companies and Istanbul Technical University, led by Turaç, have developed the “Dron Kalkanı” system. Its robotic turret mounts two Derya MAX 12-gauge shotguns, passive electro-optical and acoustic sensors, while Sterling ammunition creates a cloud of metal pellets. The system autonomously detects targets at 600–800 m and destroys them at 150 m. It is expected to enter series production by the end of the year. 🤫: The Turkish shotgun drone killer can move, but cannot fire while moving. It fires when stationary. I don’t see the point. What good is this protection if you have to stand still? Sooner or later, another two or three drones will come along, and you’ll run out of ammunition. Nobody has actually demonstrated one working while moving at a normal pace yet. #info #Turkey #SAM #UAV #FPV #MANPADS #EW #gear
