The Turkish company Aselsan has tested its latest short-range anti-aircraft system, Gokberk. It is mounted on the chassis of a BMC tactical truck (6x6) and can effectively shoot down FPV drones and other unmanned aerial vehicles at a distance of up to 1500 m. It does this in two ways - the so-called hard and soft.

In the first case, a laser installation of its own design is used. In the video, you can see how the beam not only eliminates drones, but also burns through 6 mm armor at a distance of 600 m.

As for soft destruction, it is carried out using radio-electronic means. A feature of Gokberk is its rapid targeting and precise tracking, which is performed by an electro-optical system using artificial intelligence.

The BMC tactical truck (6×6) is designated as a 10-ton truck, although it actually has a carrying capacity of 13,5 tons and is designed for a total weight of 26 tons. The machine is equipped with an 11,8-liter turbodiesel with a capacity of 375 hp and a maximum torque of 2000 Nm at 1000 rpm. An Allison 6-speed automatic transmission and a ZF two-speed transfer case are used. The ground clearance is 400 mm. The truck can overcome climbs with a steepness of 60%, slopes of up to 30% and fords with a depth of 800 mm. The cruising range is 800 km. The maximum speed reaches 95 km/h.
