Turkish RF Jammers to Protect UN Vehicles in Africa

Turkish defense firm Aser Technology’s radio frequency (RF) jammers will be installed in armored vehicles used in United Nations operations in Africa, a company representative stated.

Aser Technology, a satellite communications and radar systems manufacturer, won the RF jammer supply tender for the UN’s African operations, beating out international competition, and completed the deliveries, The Caspian Post reports, citing Turkish media.

Ertan Murat, general manager of Aser Technology, told Anadolu that the company produces tactical-class electronic warfare jamming systems effective against remote-controlled improvised explosive devices (IEDs) and drones.

Murat said the company took its innovative and effective RF jamming technologies to the highest international level with this prestigious project.

“We served the Turkish Armed Forces in jammer projects for over 20 years and we developed new jamming technologies that meet the conditions and needs of the real field,” he said.

“Our offerings can jam effectively across the entire spectrum, including 4.5G and 5G systems, drones, and GNSS (global navigation satellite system) frequency bands, with a much wider range,” he added.
