BULUT
Product descripton: BULUT by Havelsan
BULUT is a fixed-wing Autonomous Unmanned Aerial Vehicle designed to meet modern military units’ needs. It can do vertical landing, take-off, and fully autonomous missions without a runway. BULUT offers significant strategic advantages with several sensors and technology with gasoline thrust engine.
It is an autonomous UAV that can perform joint operations with all unmanned systems. With features tailored to the requirements of contemporary armed forces BULUT UAV enhances mission flexibility and operational performance. Its modular architecture allows for the integration of different payloads. Since it can operate under the clouds, it can perform marking, detection missions day and night, even in cloudy weather conditions and transfer intelligence information to the multi terminals at the same time. It is possible to do handover among Ground Control Stations in case of operation requirement. BULUT can be equipped with several sensors to avoid collision.
