According to analysts, the peculiarity of updating the tower is the integration of its own complex of active protection Harpia.
The technician was supplemented with new options for fighting / photo Evpu DefenseIn the Czech Republic, EVPU Defense presented a new version of a deserted Turra 30 V10 tower during the IDET 2025 exhibition, which is now protected from drones. It is an integration of the Harpia active protection complex from the same manufacturer. About it writes Defense Express.
The upgraded version of the combat module has received a modern fire control system with independent surveillance and aiming for the commander and gunner, which are supplemented with artificial intelligence algorithms to identify goals. The tower also received containers to run their own drones, which are on the feed, experts write.
“The original Turra 30 was presented earlier as a fairly inexpensive solution for new armored vehicles, or modernization of the old one, but could not find its buyer. The system was even offered to Ukraine to modernize BMP -1, but received a critical assessment, including for weak protection,” – recalled analysts.
According to the experts, the updated version remained the main weapons in the form of 30 mm gun and machine gun of 7.62 mm. In addition, the possibility of integration of anti -tank missiles. Speaking of reservation, there are different options, one of which corresponds to the fourth level by Stanag 4569.

Further in the best traditions of” Hard -Kill “protection systems are neutralized by its destruction or deviation from the DefesE.
According to the manufacturer, first of all, Harpia was designed to fight UAVs, but it is also suitable for counteracting anti -tank guided missiles. Despite the fact that such characteristics have an attractive appearance, according to analysts, at the IDET 2025 3025 30 V10 exhibition was represented only with a layout of a ka, so the true level of readiness is currently unknown.
“When it comes to competition, deserted armored towers are offered by a large number of companies from many countries of the world. Turra 30 V10 obtained, although deeply expanding their opportunities, but correspond to modern trends in the market for protection, means of detection and observation,” experts emphasized.
According to analysts, the more potential has a complex of active protection of Harpia if the developers will be able to present it as a “more economical” alternative to such a well -known solution as Trophy or Iron Fist.

The usual remedies are less effective in counteracting threats due to the emergence of pre -aging systems and drones that require Kinetic opposition,”

It is about creating a “transitional” generation aircraft, that is, a 5+ generation fighter. According to experts, the updated F-35 can come to flight tests in two to three years.
The developers say that any updates will need to be implemented in stages, because it is unrealistic to add a lot of new equipment or software at the same time, without risking a disruption of the production process.
At the same time, Volunteer Dana Yarova stated that Ukraine has produced its own drone instead of Chinese Mavic. According to her, the Ukrainian soldiers now have not Mavic, but Schmavik. It is a drone of a Ukrainian manufacturer who is successfully regulated.
“The fact that China closed has given our manufacturer (who has been engaged in farmer drones since 2014, then switched to the military) – to release their Shmavik. They codified it and already undergo an active contract,” the volunteer assured.
