Birimimiz

The Weapon Systems unit is a team working on the design of structural and mechanical systems used to convert unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) into armed UAVs. The components designed within the Weapon Systems unit are based on the principle of loading, transporting, and releasing payloads such as ammunition, rockets, and missiles carried by the aircraft within the desired timeframe. The team's work encompasses processes ranging from literature review and requirements definition to design using Catia and integration into the aircraft.

Pozisyonun Amacı

The aim is to establish material selection criteria suitable for the operating conditions of systems working under static and/or dynamic conditions, to select production methods appropriate to the design, to determine suitable coating types against environmental conditions, to increase the reliability of the system, and to conduct and report on R&D studies.
