Türkiye’s Land Forces Command has added ASELSAN’s EJDERHA system to its inventory, giving troops a new capability to neutralize electronically triggered improvised explosive devices and mini- and micro-UAV swarms using high-power electromagnetic waves.
EJDERHA strengthens Türkiye’s layered defense against emerging threats
Türkiye’s Land Forces Command integrated ASELSAN’s EJDERHA system to counter electronically triggered improvised explosive devices (IEDs) and drone swarms using high-power electromagnetic waves. The system enhances layered defense but may introduce vulnerabilities in electromagnetic interference (EMI) or signal disruption capabilities. Affected stakeholders include military units and defense contractors relying on electromagnetic warfare systems.
