I start disliking these companies when they stop their co-operation with Aselsan and do their own thing with foreign companies. I don't know why they've opted for such a crappy RCWS when ASELSAN SARP is tried and tested... I had same issue with Otokar and their Urban Warfare Altay with mismatch of foreign sensors..

so enviromental screening cameras can easily be destroyed.
MRAP ıs designed for carry and protect soldiers. Unmanned MRAP means unnessesary armour weight, high fuel and repairing cost.
Totally useless equipment. Massive engine, body but 12.7 mm gun. Mobility problem in urban.
If you use 12.7mm, no need to use that massive toy. Aselsan's or Katmerciler's rc toys are better at least.
Edit: ı just think that maybe it is useful for protecting MRAP convoy at least if first RPG attack upon it.

FNSS Savunma Sistemleri has confirmed that it will hand over the Pars 4×4 anti-tank vehicle (ATV) prototype to the Turkish Land Forces Command (TLFC) for qualification once company trials have been completed.

FNSS was awarded a contract for 260 ATVs in October 2016, with 76 of these vehicles based on the Pars 4×4 design and 184 vehicles employing the tracked Kaplan 10 platform. The design of the Pars 4×4 ATV was approved by the TLFC 15 months later.

The company has built an additional example of each vehicle as part of its risk reduction programme in addition to the initial prototype, with these available for company demonstrations.

Long lead items have already been ordered to enable production of the Pars 4×4 ATV to commence in 2019 with final deliveries to the TLFC expected in late 2021.

While FNSS is the prime contractor for the Pars 4×4 ATV, production platform will be manufactured by wheeled armoured fighting vehicle (AFV) specialist Nurol Makina.

The completed prototype will be fitted with FNSS’ Anti-Tank Remote Controlled Turret (ARCT), which is armed with two anti-tank guided missiles (ATGMs) that are mounted either side of the sighting system. The turret also carries a coaxial 7.62 mm machine gun provided with 500 rounds of ready-use ammunition.

Once the two missiles have been launched the vehicle will relocate to new firing positions. Missile reloads are performed manually via the oblong roof hatch.

The stabilised sighting system includes a TV camera, thermal camera (mid-wave or long-wave), and laser rangefinder with a maximum range of 10,000 m to ensure that targets are engaged within the effective range of the ATGM.

Traverse of the ARCT is all electric through 360° with elevation from -25° to +25°. Elevation and traverse is performed at a maximum speed of 60°/s.

that anime background music made my day

If you hear the the music perhaps it sounds like anime song but if you understand the lyrics it is a very beautiful song about national pride for Indonesians and this song is so popular in Indonesia.
