The Bangladesh Army awarded a Mine Resistant Ambush Protected (MRAP) personnel carrier contract to Turkish military vehicle manufacturing giant Otokar. Otokar won the tender for the 4×4 MRAP’s beating out the likes of BAE Systems Land Systems South Africa’s RG-32 and other vehicles in the series.

Otokar offered a vehicle that could increase crew survivability against Improvised Explosive Devices (IED) with enhanced mine and ballistic protection without compromising on mobility. The vehicles can operate in diverse and challenging climates, which is required given the Bangladesh Army operates in theatres ranging from marshlands to scorching deserts of Africa.

Note: The mentioned MRAP is Kaya-II.

Malaysia conducts trials of 30 mm naval gun from first-of-class NGPC

Key Points

• 
  
  
  • The Malaysian Coast Guard has conducted test firings of a 30 mm Turkish-made naval gun system from a newly inducted platform
  • Tests brings the first-of-class New Generation Patrol Craft closer towards full operational capability with the service

The Malaysian Coast Guard has conducted the first test firings of a newly installed SMASH 30 mm remote controlled stabilised naval gun system from its first-of-class New Generation Patrol Craft (NGPC), KM Bagan Datuk (4541).

The tests, which were conducted about 15 n miles west of Pulau Mentagor, off the coast of Perak, were conducted to validate the weapon's successful integration with systems on board the vessel.

These involved a single seaborne target that was set adrift from and subsequently fired upon by Bagan Datuk in single and burst modes of three rounds each. Present during the tests were engineers from Turkish defence company Aselsan, which is supplying the naval gun system to the coastguard. According to specifications provided by the company, the SMASH system is fitted with a 30 mm Mk 44 Bushmaster-II cannon that fires 200 rds/min.

Bagan Datuk is the first of six 44 m coastal patrol vessels ordered from Malaysian shipbuilder Destini Shipbuilding & Engineering under a MYR380 million (USD87 million) signed in 2015. The platform is derived from a design by Germany-based Fassmer Shipbuilding Company and will be the first vessels operated by the Malaysian Coast Guard to feature an organic unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) capability.

The 297-tonne platform features an overall length of 44.25 m, an overall beam of 7.7 m, and a design draught of 1.95 m. The vessel is powered by two 1,920 kW MTU engines, and has a top speed of 24 kt, and a standard range of 2,000 n miles at 12 kt.

Each NGPC can deploy the Thales Fulmar unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) from a catapult-based launcher situated just behind the position of its primary weapon.

Som-J

 

[universal soldier]

Som-J

[Mr.Department]

Right and left of SOM are mortar rounds on the picture . I guess 120 mm. Why should they promote classic rounds ?
That's my simple ratio answer.

 

[mustafa erkan]

Is that HGK-3(82) for HURKUS-C which is next to SOM-J?

Yes, they will show the missiles upcoming idef17. Amraam and sidewinder equilivant the latest model versions.

 

[Mr.Department]

Yes, they will show the missiles upcoming idef17. Amraam and sidewinder equilivant the latest model versions.

Why not Long Range Missile (they announced long and short range) 100 + ?
We should consider that the first F-16 with Aselsan AESA was in the air.
AESA has many advantages, also jamming and range;
and we depend on our F-16's. F-35 are in the waiting cue
