In different market sonar system market analyzes made in recent years, ASELSAN is named as global main player or remarkable player. In one of these, "Sonar System-Global Market Outlook 2017-2026" report, under the title of main players in the sonar systems market, ASELSAN is analyzed under 14 main players, together with companies such as Northrop Grumman, Thales and Kongsberg. It is noteworthy that these evaluations are based on criteria and in-depth "Sonar Market" review reports.

For ASELSAN, the fact that global player qualification is included in these reports that guide the underwater world of acoustics is behind a wide spectrum of studies and the knowledge, infrastructure and human resource quality on which these studies are based.
ASELSAN has successfully completed 33 deliveries for 11 different ASELSAN domestic and original underwater acoustic systems in 36 different platforms, including 16 different submarines and 20 different surface platforms within the 10-year period in which it has been operating mainly in the field of underwater acoustics, 37 of them continue their works in accordance with the contract calendars. Again, ASELSAN has exported 3 different underwater acoustic systems specific to submarine platforms and achieved a great success on behalf of Turkey and turned its motivation to become a global player into reality.
In addition, Underwater Technologies Development and Test Center, which will include the maximum testing and measurement mechanism that may be needed in the development of underwater systems and weapons, in order to shape the underwater world of the future, similar to the examples in the US and the United Kingdom, in order to sustain our global player quality increasingly sustainable is planned.
KULAÇ Sounder System:
In order to meet the sounding needs of surface ships with national facilities, the project of developing the “Single Beam Sounder” started by ASELSAN in 2010 with own resources was completed in 2011.
