Through cutting-edge automation, fire control, and counter-mortar radar systems, ASELSAN enhances battlefield efficiency, enabling military forces to execute highly accurate and swift fire missions in dynamic combat environments.
Shaping the Future of Fire Support Operations
ASELSAN’s continuous innovations and relentless pursuit of technological excellence is redefining the effectiveness of mortar and artillery systems. By integrating smart automation, digital targeting, and counter-mortar defense capabilities, ASELSAN ensures that military forces operate with superior accuracy, mobility, and survivability in modern combat. ASELSAN continues to push the boundaries of precision firepower, solidifying its position as a global leader in next-generation defense technologies. At IDEX 2025, ASELSAN will unveil ALKAR 100/81 81mm Mortar Weapon System and ALKAR 110/81 81mm Mortar Weapon System for the international audiences for the first time, marking a significant milestone in advanced indirect firepower solutions. In addition to its traditional units, ASELSAN will highlight ALKAR 100/120 Mortar Weapon Systems to further solidify its position as a leader in advanced fire support solutions, showcasing its commitment to innovation and precision in modern warfare.
ALKAR 100/81: Advanced Automation and Precision
ASELSAN’s ALKAR 100/81 Mortar Weapon System, introduces advanced automation and precision to traditional mortar systems. The system integrates an automatic barrel laying system, fire control system, and precise ammunition handling, enhancing speed, accuracy, and operational autonomy. With features such as real-time meteorological data integration, ballistic computation, and automated target engagement, ALKAR 100/81 streamlines mortar operations and reduces the need for extensive personnel involvement. The versatile system is compatible with tracked vehicles, tactical wheeled vehicles, and stationary platforms, offering enhanced mobility and flexibility for modern combat missions.
ALKAR 110/81: A New Standard in Fire Direction and Alignment
For traditional mortar units, ASELSAN’s ALKAR 110/81 Fire Direction & Alignment System (FDAS) enhances speed, ease of use, and precision to a new level. FDAS enhances conventional mortars by measuring azimuth, elevation, and roll angle orientations with high accuracy, enabling automated fire mission execution based on real-time weather, target, and ammunition data. It calculates adjustments for consecutive missions and allows for section fire missions via the Fire Direction Center (FDC). With connectivity options including Ethernet, DSL, or radio communication, ALKAR 110/81 ensures seamless coordination between multiple mortar units, significantly improving response times and battlefield effectiveness.
ALKAR 100/120: Transforming Mortars into Smart Weapon Systems
ASELSAN’s ALKAR 100/120 Mortar Weapon System represents a new era in mortar warfare, integrating automation and precision targeting to maximize operational efficiency. Designed entirely by ASELSAN’s unique engineering, ALKAR 100/120 modernizes traditional mortars by incorporating an Automatic Barrel Laying System for precise target engagement, an Automatic Ammunition Loading System to enable rapid fire sequences, and a Recoil Mechanism for enhanced stability and vehicle integration. Additionally, its Fire Control System ensures accurate ballistic calculations, while the Inertial Navigation System (INS) & Muzzle Velocity Radar provide first-round hit probability. ALKAR 100/120 is designed to be deployed on tracked vehicles, wheeled platforms, and stationary defense positions, allowing seamless integration with command-and-control networks for coordinated fire missions. Its rugged construction ensures reliable operation in harsh environmental conditions.
ALKAR 100/120 transforms classical mortars into autonomous fire support assets, reducing the need for manual adjustments and personnel-intensive procedures. Equipped with an advanced fire control system, ALKAR 100/120 calculates ballistic data using meteorological inputs and digital communication from forward observers, ensuring unparalleled accuracy and efficiency. It features INS/GPS-guided precision targeting, an Electronic Trigger System for on-demand firing, and a Muzzle Velocity Radar that continuously corrects targeting data for improved accuracy. The integrated recoil mechanism allows mounting on light armored vehicles, enabling rapid “shoot and scoot” operations. Whether deployed as a vehicle-mounted mobile mortar or as a fixed defensive installation, ALKAR 100/120’s rapid-response capabilities enable forces to execute accurate and lethal fire missions in minimal time.
