As armed forces increasingly prioritize autonomy, operational flexibility and decision superiority, the focus of uncrewed aviation is shifting beyond platforms toward the mission systems they carry. At Farnborough International Airshow, ASELSAN is demonstrating this transformation through a comprehensive portfolio of electro-optical systems, radars, electronic warfare payloads and precision-guided munitions designed for both current and next-generation UAVs.
The company’s exhibit reflects a broader industry trend: operational effectiveness is increasingly determined by the integration of sensing, electronic warfare, communications and precision engagement capabilities within a single mission ecosystem.
Radar technologies form a cornerstone of ASELSAN’s airborne portfolio. At Farnborough, the company is showcasing its FULMAR 200 and FULMAR 500 radar systems alongside the MURAD AESA radar family. These systems provide all-weather surveillance, high-resolution imaging and multi-target tracking capabilities, enabling operators to maintain situational awareness even in environments where electro-optical sensors may be constrained. The integration of MURAD on advanced Turkish uncrewed platforms demonstrates how technologies traditionally associated with fighter aircraft are increasingly being adapted for the uncrewed domain.
