At Eurosatory 2026, ASELSAN is showcasing a portfolio built around these principles. As Türkiye’s leading defense company and one of Europe’s largest defense enterprises, ASELSAN presents integrated, modular and NATO-compatible solutions designed to support multi-domain operations across air, land, maritime and electromagnetic environments.
A key focus of ASELSAN’s presence is its contribution to layered air defense architectures. At the center of this approach is Steel Dome, a networked air and missile defense concept that combines sensors, command-and-control capabilities and effectors within a single operational framework. Developed to address a wide spectrum of conventional and asymmetric threats, the architecture reflects the growing demand for integrated defense networks capable of delivering coordinated responses in complex battlespaces.
One of the highlights of the exhibition is KALKAN II/M, a mobile search radar designed to support short- and medium-range air defense operations. Equipped with active phased-array radar technology, KALKAN II/M provides accurate detection, tracking and classification of aerial targets, including unmanned aerial systems, helicopters, fixed-wing aircraft and air-to-ground threats. By delivering reliable situational awareness and target data, the system plays a critical role in strengthening layered air defense capabilities.
The rapid proliferation of unmanned aerial systems has created a new set of operational challenges for armed forces worldwide. To address this evolving threat environment, ASELSAN is presenting its DRONEDEF concept, an integrated counter-UAV approach combining complementary capabilities within a single defensive framework. Bringing together İHTAR, GÖKBERK, KORKUT 100/25 SB and EJDERHA, the concept integrates kinetic, directed-energy and electromagnetic countermeasures to provide layered protection against a broad range of drone threats. This approach reflects the growing importance of combining multiple technologies to counter increasingly sophisticated unmanned systems.
In the electromagnetic domain, ASELSAN is showcasing KORAL AD, a radar electronic warfare solution designed to support air defense operations in contested environments. As control of the electromagnetic spectrum becomes increasingly important in modern conflicts, KORAL AD provides advanced capabilities to detect, analyze and counter hostile radar systems, helping enhance operational effectiveness and force survivability.
ASELSAN is also highlighting precision-engagement solutions developed to increase the effectiveness of both manned and unmanned platforms. TOLUN L, TOLUN IRR and LGK represent the company’s expertise in precision-guided munitions, providing accurate and flexible strike capabilities for a variety of operational scenarios. These systems support the growing requirement for precision effects while enabling operators to engage targets with increased efficiency and mission effectiveness.
At sea, ASELSAN is presenting KILIÇ family of autonomous underwater vehicles, reflecting the company’s expanding focus on autonomous maritime technologies. As naval operations increasingly incorporate unmanned systems, KILIÇ family demonstrates ASELSAN’s commitment to developing innovative capabilities for future maritime missions.
ASELSAN’s expanding engagement with the NATO ecosystem was recently underscored by the visit of NATO Secretary General Mark Rutte to the company’s facilities in Ankara. Reflecting ASELSAN’s growing contribution to allied defense capabilities, the visit highlighted the importance of interoperable and operationally proven technologies, an approach that is also at the core of the solutions showcased at Eurosatory 2026.
Through its participation at Eurosatory 2026, ASELSAN aims to deepen cooperation with NATO allies, European partners and international customers while demonstrating operationally proven technologies designed for the requirements of modern defense forces. Across all showcased capabilities, the company emphasizes interoperability, modularity and seamless integration into allied architectures, supporting the collective need for resilient and future-ready defense solutions.
