ASELSAN also emphasizes swarm-enabled operational concepts for the KILIÇ family. This approach reflects a broader evolution in autonomous naval warfare where distributed sensing and coordinated attacks increasingly replace isolated single-vehicle operations. In practical terms, multiple autonomous underwater vehicles operating simultaneously can complicate acoustic tracking and create uncertainty regarding the primary threat direction. Even relatively small underwater vehicles may become operationally disruptive if they force an adversary to slow maneuver cycles, alter routes, or maintain continuous anti-submarine vigilance in congested maritime chokepoints.
