BARKAN aims to be essential power of Turkish armed forces

HAVELSAN's Unmanned Ground Vehicles are the inevitable components of Digital Troops family. They can be in various sizes and configurations for the differing needs of the armed forces'. One of the members of UGV systems, BARKAN, is designed and developed according to the needs and requirements of the end users, namely Turkish army and allied countries' armed forces. The locally-produced unmanned hround vehicle aims to be an essential power of the armed forces in many areas, through its determinant role in the success of the operation. Hitherto, 7.62-millimeter Sarp-L Remote Controlled Stabilized Weapon System, robotic arm system, and a 3-meter mast system for reconnaissance-surveillance missions have been integrated into HAVELSAN BARKAN to be able to perform the expected duties. As HAVELSAN keeps developing BARKAN, the tests to integrate different weapon systems into UGV are in progress. Recently, ROKETSAN's Laser Guided Mini Missile System METE was integrated into HAVELSAN BARKAN which successfully carried out a test fire. The Laser Guided Mini Missile, METE integrated model of BARKAN is called BARKAN W41. The test of missile fire was performed in Konya, Karapınar.
