Pakistan interested in KORKUT Self-Propelled Air Defense System

In my opinion, Aselsan's 35 mm Oerlikon upgrade which uses same technology with Korkut as it is better in terms of effect/economy.

Korkut is specialized for armoured column protection!

 
.
The mobile plateform offer more flexibility to move the defensive Umberella around as needed.
But certainly looks like ideal platform for modest improvements in close range defence

Mobility of the platform is great plus , fast , agile and you morph your defences as new threat emerges

Negotiations between Pakistan and Turkey are going on;
the number is more than Turkey wanted to take in own stocks !

That's what OP Translated from the Article

Once again , wishing for weapons that are not on table is a folly (Pantsir S2 etc) , and mistake. We need to focus on attainable weapons and induct it in sufficient numbers.

A fairly large unit when you compare a standing man next to the Unit.
If we can imagnie 10-15 of these strategically placed for dynamic defence , together with the LY-80 SAM systems
The combinations certainly helps with a more secure "Pakistan Sheild"

What does that mean?? wishing for weapons that are not on table is a folly , and mistake.???????

The News Came From Turkish Source not Pakistani and they says Negotiations are underway

They are huge and heavy systems to withstand recoil effect of twin 35mm barrels.

Best part is mobility that depending on threat the units and planners can ensure we position these units accordingly along path of threat

Any prey captured by means of the shells/round fire a great plus as ammo is easily replacable even locally hopefully with some planning

If generals feel threat from certain direction the units can be adjusted to provide maximum defence for those sectors
 
.
@cabatli_53 is the whole system integrated into the ACV or can it be fitted to other chassis like Pakistan Saad APC?
