 FNSS AND Aselsan




























            As the nacelle structure used in conventional turrets
            is  not  located  in  this  design,  usage  of  the  vehicle
            without loss of internal volume comes to the fore as
            another advantage.

            CLAW  will  be  an  advanced  and  national  defense
            product  that  will  make  positive  contributions  to
            the  national  economy  without  being  exposed  to
            impeding  procedures  such  as  license  agreements
            and export licenses by means of its unique design
            performed  by  Turkish  engineers.  The  system  has
            been design in a modular structure in order to give
            quick response to the possible future needs.

            It will be possible to apply this turret system to rubber
            wheeled  and  tracked  armored  vehicles  which  are
            currently used in the armies of Turkey and the world,
            and will be newly developed. As the similar models
            of the system that has been developed according to
            common  trends  demanded  by  current  armies  are
            very few, it is estimated that domestic and overseas
            sales potential of the system will be very high.

            CLAW  was  exhibited  as  mounted  to  our  ACV-S
            Armored Combat Vehicle at the FNSS stand within
            the  scope  of  IDEF  2011  Exhibition.  Launch  of  the
            prototype  CLAW  system  was  performed  also  at
            the FNSS stand in IDEF 2011 with the participation
            of  press  members,  representatives  of  defense
            industry  and  Mr.  Murad  BAYAR  Defense  Industry
            Undersecretary.                                                                                             47
