ASELSAN concluded major agreements with the Azerbaijani Ministry of Defense concerning communication systems and information security. Memorandums of understanding were also signed with the National Aerospace Agency of the Ministry of Defense Industry (MAKA) for electronic warfare, and with the Scientific Research Institute of the Ministry of Defense Industry (ETI) for the joint production of smart munitions in Azerbaijan. The sale of the ASELFLIR-500 and TOLUN systems, integrated on the AKINCI drone, was also finalized during the event, further enhancing Azerbaijan's defense capabilities.
On the first day of the exhibition, Azerbaijani President Ilham Aliyev visited ASELSAN's stand. The company presented the ASELFLIR-500, a next-generation electro-optical reconnaissance, surveillance, and targeting system for unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs). This system was developed by ASELSAN in response to the Canadian embargo on drone cameras destined for Türkiye. For the first time at an international exhibition, the capabilities of the ASELFLIR-500 were demonstrated live.
In addition to the ASELFLIR-500, ASELSAN showcased a range of its most advanced technologies. Among these were TASMUS, a tactical field communication system; SAGER-100, a thermal sight for the KORNET-E guided anti-tank missile; ŞAHİN, a 40mm counter-drone weapon system; and MAR, a mobile search radar. The concept of the "Steel Dome" and its components were also unveiled, illustrating ASELSAN's advancements in air defense.
Ahmet Akyol, President and CEO of ASELSAN, stated: "As ASELSAN, we have been present in Azerbaijan for a long time with our first subsidiary, ASELSAN Baku, established 30 years ago, which strengthens our relations with our brotherly country. Reflecting these strong ties, we are now taking our partnership with the Azerbaijani defense industry to a new level, including joint production and technology transfer. We will continue our cooperation with the Azerbaijani defense industry in the coming years within the framework of the 'One Nation, Two States' approach.'"
