Control Units
Reliable Control Systems for Flight Safety
Developed by TAAC, Control Units are embedded hardware and software solutions designed in compliance with aviation standards to be integrated into actuation and landing gear systems of both fixed-wing and rotary-wing aircraft platforms.
These systems are currently in use across major defense programs such as MMU KAAN, HÜRJET, and HÜRKUŞ.
