Operational Purpose and Role
UKAP is intended to act as a forward unmanned asset in hazardous areas, replacing or preceding manned elements. Its primary role is to reduce casualties by performing first-contact, reconnaissance, and fire-support missions in environments such as urban combat, narrow passages, mined areas, and border security zones.
Doctrine and Concept of Use
Aligned with modern UGV doctrine, UKAP is designed for:
Platform Architecture
UKAP features a tracked mobility platform, remote weapon station, electro-optical sensors, and command-and-control (C2) links. Its open architecture allows rapid reconfiguration for different mission loads. The most common armed configuration integrates the ASELSAN SARP stabilized remote weapon station.
Survivability and Protection
UKAP emphasizes stealth and standoff rather than heavy armor:
Specific armor levels or active protection measures are not publicly disclosed.
Engagement Process and Accuracy
In armed configurations, engagements are executed remotely by the operator. Stabilized weapon integration enables accurate fire while on the move. Engagement performance depends on the installed weapon station and electro-optical package.
Integration and Ecosystem
UKAP is designed to integrate with existing land forces C2 architectures. Network-enabled operations allow multiple UKAPs to be coordinated simultaneously, enabling swarm-like or coordinated task execution concepts.
Variants and Configurations
Details on blocks or modernization packages are not publicly available.
