you need these sites for the surveillance and these sights include from small to big devices. the better quality sights goes in jet and helo pods, and lesser quality goes into border surveillance and even lesser goes into infantry equipment. turkey had 2 options either FLIR france or Kazakhstan engineering. they went for Kazakh. multi spectrum is what is latest in these systems with cold chambers and focused vision. altitude provides range and vision clarity.
Turkey may be making rest of the vehicle domestically but the sights and ir system being used is soviet. this is the best system available.
Turkey provides tot to Kazakhstan engineering in terms of IR and thermal systems, subsystem. Aselsan has a vast of experience and latest quantum QWIP detector technology, uncooled/cooled SWIR, NIR,LWIR detectors, microbolometers along with image intensifiers for night vision sights. Russia even made a deal with Aselsan to receive such systems when their relations with France broken. There is a separate facility of Aselsan called HassasOptic in Sivas which is established to produce military and civilian optic/lens with processing Germanium on their own. That is a special capability for an institute. It is the reason Aselsan established a new facility in kazakhstan to benefit rich Kazakh Germaniums to produce domestic lenses for Russian and Asian market.
Here is the key photodetector technology owner/producers of the World and Aselsan with almost all critical latest generation thermal sight technology in own facilities can provide anything a costumer requires.
