Türkiye’s KoçSavunma develops critical systems for submarines

Koç Information and Defense Technologies (KoçSavunma) specializes in developing critical subsystems for submarines.

The company offers specialized, effective, and reliable solutions tailored for the advanced technology required in modern submarines, as the systems they produce are distinguishing themselves with low life cycle costs compared to competitors.

These solutions are currently operational in various applications.

KoçSavunma supports its submarine systems with comprehensive capabilities including signal processing, information fusion, modeling and simulation, electronic and mechanical design, software development, system integration, production infrastructure, and testing facilities.

Systems developed by the company for submarines;

Torpedo Countermeasure System

The Torpedo Countermeasure System is used to protect submarines against torpedo threats. The software can be adapted to work with different command and control systems, countermeasure acoustic jammers and countermeasure launchers. The system ensures that the right countermeasure and the right submarine maneuver can be executed at the right time to enable submarines to defend themselves against modern torpedo threats.

Breathing Air Monitoring System

The Breathing Air Monitoring System monitors the gases in the subsea atmosphere in any operational situation (underwater navigation, snorkeling, surface navigation, routine port situation) and warns if these gases reach dangerous levels. The system operates independently and automatically.

Sonar Beacon System

The Sonar Beacon System, one of the most critical components required by a submarine in the event of an accident or breakdown, is activated as a distress beacon in emergency situations and starts broadcasting sonar signals. These signals ensure that the location of the submarine can be precisely located by surrounding ships and rescue vessels.

Emergency Underwater Telephone

The Emergency Underwater Telephone, which is used in cases where the submarine cannot make the surface and cannot be fed from the ship's power circuit, has different operating modes such as telephone, telegraph and pinger.

Software Based Underwater Telephone

The Software-Based Underwater Telephone utilizes the transducers of submarines' existing sonar systems to enable underwater communication using the underwater acoustic environment through interfaces created on sonar or command and control system consoles.

Ship Integrated Information System

The Ship Integrated Information System (SIIS) enables general operation and office operations on surface and underwater platforms to be carried out together with devices connected to different networks at sea, on land and in the air. In this context, it creates a paperless office environment, including offices and living quarters within the platform. At the same time, it ensures the security of information circulating on ships by providing a TEMPEST rules-compliant infrastructure.
