KAPGANAutonomous Heavy Class UGV
About KAPGAN
KAPGAN is an Autonomous Heavy Class Unmanned Ground Vehicle (UGV) designed to accompany troops on diverse missions, offering exceptional maneuverability in challenging environmental conditions. This operationally proven Robotic Combat Vehicle integrates advanced technologies, including the Upgradable Perimeter Surveillance System and an integrated 30 mm Gun with an effective range of 2 km. This combination provides formidable firepower with armor-piercing capabilities against both land and air targets, ensuring high deterrence with minimal noise.
Versatile in function, KAPGAN excels in various roles, from transporting military equipment and facilitating casualty transfers to bomb disposal, surveillance, reconnaissance, and war damage assessments. Its multi-role design enables effective fire support and tactical overwatch, making it a valuable asset in dangerous missions.
Equipped with a tactical data link extending 5 kilometers, along with GSM and satellite communication infrastructure, KAPGAN's capabilities are further enhanced by its 4-meter Upgradeable Peripheral Surveillance System and advanced sensor systems. These features enable this advanced UGV to perform day and night reconnaissance and surveillance missions effectively.
Additionally, the wired or wireless drone integrated into KAPGAN serves as a communication relay when range limitations arise, while providing multi-sensor intelligence and enhancing ISR (Intelligence, Surveillance, and Reconnaissance) efforts. The system's reconnaissance and surveillance capabilities can be improved through uninterrupted communication facilitated by the integrated drone modem. As the newest member of the HAVELSAN Digital Troop concept, KAPGAN's swarm infrastructure allows for seamless joint operations with other autonomous systems, ensuring stealth, agility, and efficiency in complex military engagements.
