The laser-guided mini missile METE, which stands out as an important concept of Roketsan, fired with the Gök Alp Drone system developed by PAVO Group.
The final stage has been reached to start mass production of the laser-guided mini missile METE, which is currently undergoing test firings. With its 13 kg payload capacity and 35-minute mission duration, Gök Alp can operate in harsh weather and field conditions and is also designed to be unaffected by electronic warfare conditions with the technologies incorporated.
Developed by Roketsan, the laser-guided mini missile system METE, which can be fired using new generation 40-millimeter grenade launcher weapons, makes a difference with its effectiveness beyond the maximum range of existing conventional grenade launcher ammunition. Designed to be integrated into the turrets of mini–Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs), Unmanned Ground Vehicles (UGVs), Unmanned Land Vehicles (UGVs), Unmanned Naval Vehicles (UAVs) and land vehicles with its light weight and small size, METE can be fired with a grenade launcher by single personnel.
No Concussion Even in Harsh Warfare Conditions
Dr. Alper Özbilen, Chairman of the Board of Directors of PAVO Group stated that METE, which was integrated into the Gök Alp Drone system developed by PAVO Group in accordance with the Unmanned Aerial Vehicle concept, successfully completed the test firings. “Our Gök Alp drone, which we designed and produced as PAVO Group, and Roketsan’s METE met in the skies. Gök Alp, the first platform where METE is used, stands out with its payload capacity and its ability to remain stable without being affected by firing. We will play an active role in the foreign market with the Gök Alp Drone system, which eliminates the problem of shaking and losing altitude, especially when small-scale drone systems use such ammunition.”
