According to reports, the Turkish Communication Security Research Center has completed the development and testing of two laser pointer systems and plans to equip the Turkish Army. It is understood that both laser systems use continuous wave lasers with an operating wavelength of 1070 nanometers (±10 nanometers).
The first laser system is called Armol Vehicle Laser System (VMLS), which can be integrated on Ottoka’s Cobra 4×4 Light Armored Vehicle (LAV). The rear of the “Cobra” armored vehicle is equipped with a 220 kW power supply, and the top is equipped with a tilted high-energy laser. The maximum output power can reach 5 kW. Internal rotation.
Armol’s vehicle-mounted laser system includes a thermal camera, daylight camera, laser rangefinder and laser illuminator, which can interfere with cameras and other optical equipment within a maximum range of 7.5 kilometers, and damage drones and simple devices within a maximum range of 1 kilometers. Explosive device. If a radar system is installed, target tracking can be achieved.
The second type of blue laser pointer system is the Tumol mobile laser system mounted on the rifle, which can be used to interfere with drones and can be mounted on weapons equipped with Picatinny rails.
