CES İleri Kompozit Provides Armour Parts for Wahash 8x8 TurDef
Turkish CES İleri Kompozit has signed a deal with the UAE-based firm Calidus to provide spall liners and pontoons for the Wahash 8x8 armoured fighting vehicle.
CES İleri Kompozit and Calidus have signed an agreement for cooperation on the Wahash 8x8 amphibious armoured vehicle during the Dubai Airshow 2025. The cooperation covers the production of spall liners and pontoons for Wahash by CES Kompozit.
Spall liners hold an importance, especially for armoured personnel carriers. An additional layer of composite material applied inside the vehicle holds the spreading of the armour fragments (Spalling), which occur upon armour penetration.
Wahash 8x8 Among Platforms for KORKUT SPAAG
Wahash 8x8 is the first foreign platform to have the KORKUT 35 mm air defence system. Wahash 8x8 with KORKUT was first seen during the IDEX2025 defence exhibition, and firing tests, including the radar/command vehicle, were performed in 2024. ASELSAN designates this UAE variant for KORKUT as KORKUT 141/35.
