KORHAN is a brand new technology armored fight system with excessive firepower, geared up with superior goal detection and monitoring techniques, geared up with the most recent expertise self-protection techniques and environmental consciousness techniques. The system has open and extensible structure, updating and additions to the system based mostly on the wants that may come up sooner or later shall be carried out with nationwide sources. Along with the tracked and tactical wheeled configurations of KORHAN, the amphibious configurations are additionally out there in accordance with the necessities of swimming within the water.
Predominant armament consists of a 35mm two-axis stabilised dual-feed cannon; in addition to typical natures of ammunition together with APFSDS and HEI, it may additionally hearth the Aselsan Atom airburst munition (ABM). In KORHAN, 35 mm cannon, with excessive charge of fireplace, is used as the primary gun. The manufacturing of the cannon is made by MKE Establishment utilizing nationwide sources.

Loading of spare ammunitions into the turret is completed underneath armor safety
within the automobile. The system additionally has a 7.62 mm machine gun mounted co-axial with the primary gun for self-defense towards shut threats from the land.
Commercial
The Turret, designed as an unmanned kind for optimum consumer and personnel safety, permits most house for personnel and spare ammunitions by minimizing interference inside the automobile.
