The Turkish Armed Forces (TSK) is planning to upgrade its border security with unmanned bubbled surveillance systems dubbed “mini zeppelins.”
Developed by the country’s leading defense manufacturer ASELSAN, the surveillance system enables immobile facilities such as small units and posts to monitor local security and give early warnings. The system will also be used for maintaining the security of border posts, Hurriyet Daily News reports.
Coming in two different models, the surveillance system can convey images over a 360-degree area in real-time to the control station, with day and night cameras.
The system will also be able to withstand light weapon fire and high winds.
