Turkish engineers unveil TRAKON system to counter drone threats VIDEO

Turkish defence industry has unveiled a cutting-edge Counter-Unmanned Aerial System (C-UAS), named TRAKON, equipped with the CANiK M2 QCB heavy machine guns.

Successfully tested, this advanced system is designed to neutralize a wide range of drone threats, significantly boosting defense capabilities for both land and maritime operations. TRAKON boasts advanced features, including radar integration and automatic target tracking, which enhance its effectiveness in dynamic and complex environments, Caliber.Az reports via Turkish media.

TRAKON is a remotely operated weapon system equipped with the CANiK M2 QCB machine gun, offering a robust solution for neutralizing drones in various operational environments, including land and maritime missions. The system's radar integration and advanced fire control capabilities allow it to detect, track, and eliminate drone threats with precision.

Uniquely designed for dynamic and challenging environments, TRAKON seamlessly integrates with Combat Management Systems (CMS), allowing for enhanced operational flexibility and efficiency. Key features include automatic target tracking, battle planning, and advanced fire control, which enable the system to respond quickly and accurately to emerging threats.

Ömür Baç, General Manager at Unirobotics, emphasized that drones have become an increasingly serious security concern. He noted that TRAKON has demonstrated its effectiveness in neutralizing both drone and maritime vehicle threats.

Equipped with the CANiK M2 QCB machine gun, a 12.7x99mm large-caliber weapon with one of the lowest dispersion rates in the world, TRAKON offers a significant advantage over competitors. Its superior stabilization, fire control system, and electro-optical infrastructure provide an unmatched level of precision and reliability.

The successful development and testing of TRAKON solidify Türkiye's position as a key player in the global effort to counter the evolving threats posed by unmanned aerial systems.
