VURAL (REDET-II[3]) is a land-based transportable electronic warfare system developed to paralyze enemy communications and block radio frequencies by performing high-power jamming in a wide band.[4]

Operational history

[edit]

In March 2025, the Greek Cypriot news site Simerini published a report stating that the Aselsan VURAL and Aselsan STR-700 G Weapon Detection Radar placed in the Beşparmak Mountains paralyzed the radar and communication systems of the Cypriot forces on the island, rendering them ineffective.[5]
