NAZAR Laser Electronic Warfare System will serve to protect a strategic facility of the Turkish Navy





It can paralyze the seeker heads on Electro-optic and Infrared guided missiles at 5 different wavelengths

NAZAR has more effective range than the Phalanx CIWS


LIDAR (Laser Imaging Detection and Ranging)

The system sends some laser lights towards the missile head, and according to the reflections coming from there, it understands at which wavelength it is a seeker
Then it continues this reflection and creates a glare there, a glare we call the 'cat's eye effect'.
Then it begins to follow this glow. While following, a directed laser beams against the threat in a suitable modulation,

after this beam that the seeker head is paralyzed


cutting edge technology that develops by very few Countries in the World

Is that long range air defense any good not familiar with it?

 

[MMM-E]

Is that long range air defense any good not familiar with it?

including Anti-Ballistic Missile Defense Technology

Aster 30 Block 1NT (New Technology) - wide area defence capable against 1,500 km range ballistic missiles
Aster 30 Block 2 BMD currently being developed for anti-ballistic defense against 3,000 km range maneuvering missiles.

It's supposed to be top quality,but the French will not sell any to Turkey.

The FDI HN frigates of the Hellenic Navy will have Aster-30 missiles.

I never understood why the Americans didn't want to sell Patriot to the Turks. I mean why? Where they afraid they would let the Russians know stuff about it?

You mean SEMP/T? That is going to be co-production Italy, Turkey and France not purchase as you put it.

The Americans are feeling competitive with Turkey somewhat like China but not to that degrade but they have been competitive with Turkey and view them as potential rising superpower which Turkey herself doesn't hold itself at such high pedestal and all there forecasts says that weirdly enough even 15 years ago. It is strange but the Americans view Turkey as potential competitor.

Turkey has reached an overdrive level currently and is probably going at faster pace than the Americans themselves the Turks have some tech the Americans may not even have yet. Example they failed with Railgun but Turkey succeeded... there is many aspects where Turkey is ahead of the Yankees. The American tech generally has stagnated and the reason being is that there are many other emerging countries who are more hungry and has higher workrate. Example look at the pace China is going the Americans can't keep up with it they have given up they are going at ridiculous pace and the same with other countries in eurasia all tho not at the Chinese pace because nobody can sustain that pace now except China who have much more hunger than the US.. The Wolf on the hill is not as hungry as the wolf climbing the hill just a natural progression of life and cliche as life itself

I think the French can veto the sale to Turkey. And if the Turks wanted to get the SAMP/T since 2018,then why did get the S-400s and start all this fuss with the Americans? I know,it was probably a deal under the table with the Russians,but now they have the S-400s.

Turkey bought S400 which is superior to ASTER-30


Turkiye has already HISAR-U Air Defense Missile ( range of 100 km and altitude of 20 km )
150 km SIPER Air Defense Missile by 2023

Turkiye wants to work with EUROSAM for Anti-Ballistic Missile Defense to speed up indigenous GUMS Anti-Ballistic Missile Defense System

Milli anti-balistik füze kritik tehditleri bertaraf edecek

Türkiye anti-balistik füze geliştirmek için çalışmalarını hızlandırdı. Kimi komşu ülkelerimizdeki balistik füzelerin gelecekte nasıl bir tehdit olacağını kestirmenin zor olduğunu söyleyen uzmanlara göre Roketsan’ın çalışması kritik önemde.

www.trthaber.com

btw 100-120 km ASTER-30 can not stop even Turkish UCAVs armed with 150km TRLG-230 laser guided supersonic Missiles , 280 km SOM-C anti ship Missiles

also 250 km KUZGUN-TJ joint strike Missile with IIR seeker....

The Article talks about Co-production you should probably open it

I also read on wikipedia that Turkey signed off the final contracts in 2021,but the current political situation is that France does not want to allow Turkey to even buy,not co-produce the system and missiles.
