About
Aselsan’s Space Division develops military satellite communication terminals, SATCOM-on-the-move (SOTM) antenna systems, and secure tactical satellite link equipment for the Turkish Armed Forces and NATO partner nations. The company is Turkey’s largest defense electronics manufacturer and has been expanding into space systems following Turkey’s ambitious national space program goals.
Aselsan’s SATCOM products include vehicle-mounted and man-portable SOTM terminals for land forces, shipborne SATCOM systems for Turkish Navy vessels, and airborne SATCOM terminals for Turkish Air Force platforms. All products are designed to meet military EMCON (emission control), jam resistance, and low probability of intercept/detection (LPI/LPD) requirements.
In addition to user terminals, Aselsan develops satellite payloads for Turkish military communications satellites (Turksat 6A’s communication payload includes Aselsan-developed components). The company’s space division is growing as Turkey invests in national satellite capabilities, with Aselsan positioned as a key industrial partner for the Turkish Space Agency’s (TUA) programs. Aselsan is headquartered in Ankara, Turkey.
