Platform Positioning System provides real-time data distribution in autonomous networks consisting of mobile and fixed platforms. Communication system unit we developed, ADLN-200 (Airborne Datalink and Networking), can be connected to the platforms with a speed twice more than the sound velocity, and can perform data transmission by creating a network without any user intervention.

A great number of systems create the common network where they can communicate with each other and send their own data without a central control. Some platforms also carry out relaying function to transfer their own data as well as the data of their adjacent platforms to other platforms.

The platforms that communicate each other within a coverage area of 130 km can generate ten thousands km wide network as they carry the data of each other. Thus, for example, a pilot can display the data of other platforms within that wide network as provided on the screen located in the plane within seconds.

Platform Attitude Measurement System has been designed through developing a custom ad-hoc network protocol with our 20 years of Ad-hoc network experience. We have the flexibility to apply the special customer requests as we have the source code and design details. It has also following specifications compared to the limited number of systems designed abroad:

Completely dynamic use of channels
200 platform supports
Completely distributed structure without a centre
Smart Relaying
Custom channel access
130km communication range
Network algorithm completely optimized in accordance with the purpose of system

The system is the first local design in this field in Turkey

Aselsan/Netas National IFF Mod5

Known as identification of friend-or-foe system, IFF systems play very significant role in air surveillance and navigation control, air defense systems, marine and coastal security control and receiving the information on target (height, tail number, task, etc.) within military field. It is also used for the control of air traffic in civil aviation.

IFF systems consist of 2 basic units including Interrogator and Transponder. The interrogator produces interrogations for the targets required to be identified. The transponder located at the target responds received interrogation with a signal identifying itself. Responds received by the interrogator are assessed to determine the status of the target. In addition, there is a Remote Control Unit to control the transponder remotely.

Netas has developed Control Units and Remote Control Unit of the Interrogator / Transponder devices in Mode 5/S capable IFF system. Mode 5 has significant operation and performance improvements and more advanced security properties compared to previous systems.

Having carried out MODE 4 IFF project for Turkish Armed Forces, which is the Identification Friend-or-Foe System prior to MODE 5/S, Netas has completed the IFF modernization in various platforms listed in the inventory of Turkish Land, Air and Naval Forces as well as General Command of Gendarmerie, with its local manufacturing and integration competency. Netas has made a technology transfer for the previous project, and under this project, with completely local design and development capabilities, it has played important role in development of the MODE 5/S which has much more advanced features than MODE 4. Thus, Netas has provided substantial contribution to bring the first National IFF system in our country.

Netas Avionics "Software Defined GNSS Receiver "


GNSS system is a receiver device of software-based global positioning system based on satellite systems, which is designed to operate on various platforms. Global Navigation Satellite System Receiver Device (GNSS) is a positioning and time calculating system that is used world-wide.

The device designed by us provides following specifications:

It produces position and time data by using the GLONASS satellites, which is the global positioning system of Russian Federation in addition to GPS satellites of the USA Ministry of Defense used in standard global positioning systems.
It has the capability to process the data received from the SBAS satellites, which is the space-based augmentation system, by correcting the ionospheric disturbances for the position and time data solution with high precision.
GNSS Receiver has the capability to operate integrated with inertial navigation systems.
It supports 28 channels in total including 12 GPS, 12 GLONASS and 4 SBAS channels.

GNSS produces high precision position and time data from low signals in high platform Dynamics like speed and acceleration, through using signal processing methods.

Because it is software-based, it has an upgradable structure that can operate with new global satellite systems such as Galileo System of European Union countries and Compass system of Peoples Republic of China to be put into service in the future.

It differs from other GNSS systems with its mechanical design resistance against harsh environmental conditions and its ability to produce position and time solution data under high shock and vibration.

TAI outlines new Turkish helicopter

TAI_new_helicopter_cropped.jpg


Turkish Aerospace Industries (TAI) will fly a new, indigenously-developed 5t helicopter within the next five years, the company has claimed.

Speaking at the IDEF exhibition in Istanbul, Emre Yazici, vice president of TAI’s helicopter group, said after an initial slow start, the project was now running to an ‘aggressive’ schedule.

The programme to develop an indigenous helicopter for both military and civilian applications was launched in 2010 when a Turkish government committee appointed TAI as the prime contractor.

‘At that time the funds were humble. So, to correctly fund the programme has taken us a few years. But now we have a very solid funding for the programme and we are ready to build upon the infrastructure we have developed in the past three years,’ Yazici said.

‘The dictated schedule is highly aggressive but we are expected to release a 5t helicopter within five years. This, I believe, shall cover the first flight but the certification process is expected to take longer.’

Turkey’s Undersecretariat for Defence Industries (SSM) released an initial RFP for the project in May 2012, which TAI responded to in October.

Since the start of the project, the company has invested in new facilities, including a whirl tower to test rotor blades for aircraft weighing up to 4t, while other facilities for transmission development and flight control are being funded.

An artist’s impression has been shown on the TAI website of a single or more likely twin-engined helicopter of advanced design, with a shrouded tail rotor and five-blade main rotor. It features a wide-bodied cabin, which is probably capable of seating between six and nine passengers.

However, Yazici said the final design would likely differ significantly from this.

‘That is a teaser kind of design. That was conceived around two years ago so we should not expect a similar aircraft.’

He said while both Turkish and foreign companies will be involved in the project, TAI would retain the core competencies in-house.

‘TAI shall be the prime contractor, for sure, but such a helicopter requires the help of local industry and of course some foreign industries. The avionics will be fully indigenous, they will be developed locally for this aircraft. The engine is also covered in the contract but we will see the outline.

‘For a helicopter the gearbox is the core competency, so the gearbox will stay with TAI. But some of the components may be manufactured in Turkey by other companies.’

IDEF 2013: TAI reveals fifth generation fighter designs
By Nicholas de Larrinaga
5/10/2013

Turkish Aerospace Industries (TAI) has displayed concept designs for Turkey's indigenous fifth generation F-X fighter programme at the IDEF 2013 defence exhibition, the first they have been shown publically.

TAI displayed images of three different potential single seat concept designs: a single engine, conventionally laid out aircraft; a single engine aircraft, equipped with canards; and a twin engine, conventionally laid out fighter.

All three concepts feature elements traditionally associated with fifth generation aircraft, including a design optimised for low radar cross-sectional density, internal weapons bays, and the ability to super cruise, Huseyin Yagci, TAI's chief engineer on the F-X programme told IHS Jane's at IDEF.

According to Yagci, the two single engine concepts will have a maximum take-off weight of between 50,000 lb and 60,000 lb, while the twin engine aircraft will have a maximum take-off weight of between 60,000 lb and 70,000 lb.

The future F-X fighter is intended to eventually replace Turkey's Lockheed Martin F-16 Fighting Falcon aircraft, and other aircraft, and will augment the country's planned buy of 100 Lockheed Martin F-35 Lightning II Joint Strike Fighter (JSF) aircraft.

3 hours ago


Turkish Aerospace Industries expects to finalise a contract with a first export customer for its Anka (Phoenix) unmanned air vehicle during June, with Egypt due to sign for 10 of the aircraft.

"For Anka, we will develop the mission computer and software with Egypt. Also, Egypt will produce parts for its Ankas," TAI general manager Muharrem Dortkasli said during the International Defence Industry Fair (IDEF) in Istanbul. "Anka has got a deep interest from the Middle East. We believe more orders will come soon," he added.



Turkish Aerospace Industries

A medium-altitude, long-endurance design equipped with an electro-optical/infrared sensor supplied by Aselsan, the Anka secured certification from Turkey's undersecretary of defence industries during the show.

TAI is also working on the development of a turboprop-engined version of the Anka, with this to have its payload capacity increased by 50%, and the capability to be armed with Cirit air-to-surface rockets produced by Roketsan.
