30mm Wheeled Anti-Aircraft Gun
The future battlefield, especially in the field of air defense, is rapidly changing.
Variety of new threats, such as UAVs and small drones, are emerging.
We need to take these threats seriously and respond accordingly.
That's not all.
(130,000 personnel reduction) As a result of manpower reduction, air defenes area of operation has been enlarged.
And Army units have become much more mobile than before.
As such, the importance of low-altitude air-defense assets has never been more crucial.
30mm Wheeled Anti-Aircraft Gun began as a project to replaced towed Vulcan Air Defense Systems which have been in use for the past 40 years.
Its key characteristics are of the following:
First, it embraces the concept of network-centric warfare by operating alongside TPS-880K Local Air Defense Radar (LADR) via the Air Defense Command and Control Alert (ADC2A) network.
Its wheeled chassis allows concurrent operation alongside mechanized forces and allow effective coverage of greater area of operation.
Use of proven technology and platforms greatly reduced development cost and duration.
Its primary role is to shield strategic sites and forward units against low-altitude threats.
It has the necessary mobility and survivability to perform these roles.
Emerging small airborne threats can be effectively engaged in both day & night.
It receives firing solution from TPS-880K LADR and ADC2A Network via wired and wireless datalink.
If datalink is inaccessibe, its Electro Optical Targeting System (EOTS) can independently track and engage targets.
This system features variety of crucial technology.
Network-based target tracking technology which enables integration with external detection systems.
Automated targeting and engagement via EOTS.
Recoil-reducing stabilization
Real-time monitoring of electric motor to minimize jams.
These are all low-cost, high-performance technologies which will greatly boost system capability.
It took 48 months of grueling development time since 2015.
