Description

The KORAL is a land-based radar electronic warfare system designed and manufactured by the Turkish Defense Company Aselsan. The KORAL system is composed of two vehicles, one is the Radar Electronic Support (ES System) and one multi Radar Electronic Attack (EA) system to cover the full spectrum, each mounted on an 8x8 tactical military truck. This electronic defense/electronic attack system is designed to jam and deceive conventional and complex types of hostile radar, and analyzes multiple target signals in a wide frequency range, automatically generating appropriate response thanks to its digital radio frequency memory (DRFM) capability. In February 2016, the Turkish Company Aselsan has handed over its newly developed and locally produced land-based radar electronic attack system called KORAL to the Turkish Air Force. Turkey has deployed a radar-electronic warfare system close to the borders with Syria in order to jam and deceive hostile radar emitters.

Technical Data

KORAL Radar ES System

KORAL Radar ES System has a modular design with a multi-receiver architecture. Its wide frequency and spatial coverage, coupled with high parameter measurement accuracy (RF, PRI, PW, DOA) allow handling both traditional and emerging threats with automatic identification of threats and fast system response.

KORAL Radar EA System

The KORAL Radar EA system has multiple jamming and deception techniques and can handle both traditional and emerging threats with automatic identification of threats and fast system response. KORAL Radar EA System also features a modular design, an integrated digital receiver, a technique generator and a digital RF memory architecture.

Mobility

The two vehicles are based on an 8x8 truck military chassis from the German Company MAN.

Combat use

KORAL System is operated by two operators within the Operation Control Unit (OCU) and a Supervisor. OCU is in compliance with NATO standards and also supports NBC protection. KORAL System also provides Mission Planning and Mission Analysis Tools as an option. The system is able to operate within a dense and CW environment with a high precision direction finding and a high precision position fixing with multi-platforms. With an effective range in excess of ninety miles (about 150 kilometers), KORAL reportedly could jam and deceive any land, sea and airborne radar systems. The fast beam steering is generated via the phased array antenna system with a high output of power and multiple solid-state amplifiers. The system covers a wide frequency and spatial coverage with a high parameter measurement accuracy. The KORAL system can operate at temperatures between -30 °C and +50 °C and with a humidity rate of 95 %.
