Türkiye's ASELSAN completes successful live-fire tests of GÖKTAN project

21 February 2025 12:28

The Turkish ASELSAN defence electronics company has successfully completed live-fire tests of its GÖKTAN project, designed to enhance the capabilities of TOLUN munitions launched from aerial platforms to engage targets on the ground.

The live-fire tests took place on February 18, with TOLUN munitions accurately hitting their designated targets, showcasing the precision and effectiveness of the system, Caliber.Az reports via ASELSAN’s message on X.

The GÖKTAN project involved the integration of a rocket engine with TOLUN, along with the development of advanced fire control and management systems, as well as mission planning and firing information systems. During the trials, TOLUN munitions successfully deployed their wings after detaching from the rocket engine, ensuring optimal performance during target engagement. 

Developed under ASELSAN's main contract in collaboration with DELTA-V, GÖKTAN is designed for independent, platform-based interception of critical targets. One of the most impressive features of the system is its ability to conduct 360-degree firing without requiring platform maneuvering. This allows for enhanced flexibility and effectiveness in dynamic combat scenarios. Furthermore, GÖKTAN can engage multiple targets, conduct inclined fire, and perform sequential shooting, providing a versatile and powerful solution for modern warfare.

ASELSAN's successful GÖKTAN live-fire tests mark a significant step forward in Türkiye's defence capabilities, particularly in aerial strike technologies and advanced weapon systems. ASELSAN is a leading Turkish defence and electronics company, established in 1975. It specialises in the design, development, and production of advanced technology systems for military, security, and defence applications. ASELSAN is recognized for its expertise in a wide range of fields, including radar systems, communication systems, electronic warfare, command and control systems, air defence, and unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs). 

The company has grown to become a key player in the Turkish defence industry and also supplies its products to international markets. ASELSAN has played a significant role in advancing Türkiye's defence technology, contributing to national security and defence modernisation. Its ongoing innovation, extensive research and development, and strategic partnerships position it as a global leader in the defence sector.
