SAS Technology has taken a significant step forward with the debut of its Tactical Autonomous Laser Precision Strike (TALPS) system during the "Aisios Oionos 2025" exercise.
This event was hosted by the Hellenic Armed Forces in the Alexandroupolis–Evros region, marking a pivotal moment for Greek defence technology as part of the continuing operational integration of the UCAV SARISA II.
Key attendees at the event
The exercise drew distinguished guests, including the Minister of National Defence, Mr. Nikos Dendias, and General Dimitrios Choupis, Chief of the Hellenic National Defence General Staff. High-ranking officers from various branches of the Hellenic Armed Forces were also present.
Attendees were briefed on the ground to witness the latest advancements enabled by Greek defence innovations.
Capabilities of the TALPS system
The TALPS system stands out as a comprehensive tactical autonomous precision-strike solution. It's engineered to detect, identify, and verify targets while necessitating minimal human input, such as in tactical decisions related to target selection and trigger control, maintaining a man-in-the-loop approach.
TALPS leverages the autonomous power of the UCAV SARISA II, able to operate solo or within a coordinated swarm for strategic strikes.
Aim-Correction Algorithm
Central to the TALPS system is its sophisticated aim-correction algorithm. This feature enhances accuracy by adjusting for environmental variables such as wind and temperature, alongside the aircraft's ongoing positional and motion data.
The system autonomously adjusts heading, attitude, altitude, and launcher angle to secure optimal firing conditions. Once ready, TALPS requests target designation and commences the strike after confirmation.
Integration and Autonomous Operation
TALPS offers a streamlined yet fully autonomous operational framework. Key components include a command-and-control station, a fixed-wing ISR/Designator UAV, and multiple UCAV SARISA IIs.
This system also supports integration with other assets, such as aircraft, helicopters, and ground vehicles armed with laser-guided munitions, ensuring thorough battlespace cohesion. With its open architecture and adaptability, TALPS represents a cutting-edge advancement in autonomous defence systems emerging from Greece.
