Operational Purpose and Role
TMR-II Çetin is designed to eliminate direct human exposure to danger during operations such as explosive ordnance disposal (EOD), suspicious object inspection, remote intervention, and close-range reconnaissance.
Its primary mission profile focuses on safely accessing areas that are unsafe, inaccessible, or structurally unstable for personnel.
Doctrine and Concept of Use
The platform follows the lightweight, rapidly deployable mini-UGV doctrine, emphasizing simplicity, mobility, and cost-effectiveness. Typical usage scenarios include:
Platform Architecture
TMR-II Çetin consists of an integrated architecture combining:
Mobility and Survivability Approach
The tracked drive system provides strong traction on surfaces such as rubble, gravel, soil, and concrete.
The vehicle is not armored; survivability is achieved through stand-off operation, compact size, and reduced visual signature rather than passive or active protection systems.
Precision, Reaction, and Intervention
The multi-axis manipulator arm with a 360° rotating gripper allows precise handling of ground-level and elevated objects.
Real-time video transmission supports rapid operator decision-making during sensitive tasks.
Integration and System Ecosystem
TMR-II Çetin is designed primarily as a stand-alone platform.
Publicly available sources do not indicate NATO-standard C2 or open-architecture network integration. Payload or sensor integration is possible through manufacturer-specific solutions.
