Ä°smail Demir, president of defence industries, said that a triple defence system has been developed on a land platform, especially one of which is laser, to prevent drone attacks. Demir said the system will be put into service soon.
A statement was also made regarding the high-altitude air defence system SÄ°PER. “We understand the public’s expectation of SÄ°PER, but there are some steps towards it. Air defence is a layered structure. The SÄ°PER system has its own range and prevention capability, but even when you install the system with that capability, you can get a lot of attacks and damage from where you never expected.” Another product is expected to be introduced before SÄ°PER.
“The precursor system will come up with an effective range of up to 100 kilometres and an altitude of over 20 kilometres. We will commission SÄ°PER before the end of 2023,” Demir said.
