Cobra In-Service Support by ESG

Date: Issue 49 - January 2014

The Turkish Army acquired 2 Cobra (Counter Battery Radar) systems in 2007. With Turkey recently joining France and Germany in the in-service phase of Cobra, ESG is now delivering In-Service Support (ISS) to Turkey to help maintain the availability of these systems.

Cobra is a Phased–Array ground based radar System for the accurate and rapid location of guns, rocket launchers and mortars. Secondary missions include the reporting of impact positions of enemy projectiles and the adjustment of friendly artillery fire. The complete Cobra system is mounted on a vehicle and is a single, mobile platform. It is used in defence as well as peace keeping and enforcing scenarios.
