Turkey's layered air defense system, the Iron Dome, will defend critical elements at sea, including ASELSAN's point air defense system GÖKSUR, against threats from the Blue Homeland, anti-ship and cruise missiles, armed/unarmed unmanned aerial vehicles, fighter jets, and helicopters.

FIRST SHOT FIRED FROM SURFACE PLATFORM

According to a statement from ASELSAN, the GÖKSUR firing test was successfully conducted yesterday from TCG BEYKOZ off the coast of Sinop. The GÖKSUR guided projectile has been developed to meet the needs of naval forces, thanks to the high-performance capabilities of the BOZDOĞAN missile and bidirectional data link communication.

READY TO BE COMMISSIONED TO THE NAVY

The point air defense system GÖKSUR, with configurations such as GÖKSUR 100-N VLS vertical launch system (Modular Vertical Launch System), GÖKSUR 100-N/StA independent operational capability (All in One System), and GÖKSUR 100-N combat management system integrated (Combat Management Integrated System), is ready to be commissioned to Turkey's navy.

WILL ELEVATE THE DEFENSE CAPABILITY OF THE BLUE HOMELAND TO A HIGHER LEVEL

GÖKSUR will elevate Turkey's defense capability of the Blue Homeland with its 360-degree threat neutralization capability, next-generation infrared (IIR) seeker head guided projectile, high effectiveness against low-flying threats, multiple engagement capability, AI-supported fire control system, ease of integration into platforms of different sizes due to its modular architectural design, capability to operate independently and/or integrated with the platform's combat management system, and data link with uplink/downlink mid-course guidance capabilities.

HAS ATTRACTED GREAT INTEREST FROM VISITORS IN PARIS

With its modular structure allowing adaptation to many frigates and corvettes, GÖKSUR has high export potential and attracted great interest from visitors at the Euronaval 2024 Fair held in Paris.
