Bosnia and Herzegovina has signed an agreement to receive 10 Turkish-made KANGAL/ADL 100 anti-drone jammers as a military donation, expanding its ability to protect military sites and infrastructure from unmanned aircraft.
Bosnian Defense Minister Zukan Helez and ASELSAN Chief Executive Ahmet Akyol signed the agreement Wednesday at Armed Forces Hall in Sarajevo.
Bosnia’s Federation News Agency (FENA) described the document as a donation agreement, while the Defense Ministry called it an acquisition contract. Helez called the equipment the third donation arranged with ASELSAN, after 400 military radios and a KANGAL anti-drone system.
Turkey’s government donated the KANGAL system in May 2025, while the radios were secured through NATO’s Defence and Related Security Capacity Building Initiative, which relies on voluntary financial or in-kind contributions.
Neither side disclosed the value of the latest transfer or identified whether ASELSAN, Turkey’s government or another donor would cover its cost.
The KANGAL/ADL 100 is a portable, rifle-shaped electronic warfare system that can disrupt drones’ remote-control, satellite-navigation and data-link frequencies simultaneously. It operates for at least one-and-a-half hours on rechargeable batteries and can store more than 100 jamming profiles, according to Aselsan.
Helez said the devices would help defend military installations, defense industry facilities and critical infrastructure. The sides are also discussing two additional anti-drone systems.
Commercial and first-person-view drones have become surveillance and attack tools in conflicts such as Russia’s war against Ukraine, increasing demand for counter-drone equipment among armed forces around the world.
