The explosion of pagers became a global issue. After pagers were detonated on many Hezbollah members in Lebanon, 9 people, including a child, lost their lives. Approximately 2,800 people were injured, 200 of them seriously.
People are wondering how the pagers were detonated and how they were given the function of explosives.
PHONE EXPLOSIONS SCARED EVERYONE
Following the exploding phones and radios, Aselsan came to the fore on the social media platform called X.
ASELSAN was founded in 1975 by the Turkish Armed Forces Foundation to meet the military communication needs of the Turkish Armed Forces.
According to WEBTEKNO’s news; In the late 1990s, when mobile phones were just becoming widespread, ASELSAN, one of the most important institutions of our country, produced a mobile phone model called ASELSAN 1919.
The phone was used by the president of the period and members of the National Intelligence Organization. It was also exported to many different countries. With the domestic mobile phone ASELSAN 1919 model, Turkey was among the 9 countries that produced phones during the period. A special engineer was brought from the Nokia brand, which was considered the best of the period.
While ASELSAN was preparing for new models, patent lawsuits were filed one after another by international companies. These lawsuits were won by international companies. Domestic phone production was stopped.
RE-EMERGED
After the explosion in Lebanon, ASELSAN shared a remarkable domestic and national handheld radio. ASELSAN shared the visuals of its domestic and national handheld radio “ARTCOM 5433 V/UHF-P”. The statement “we can provide the capabilities of smart phones without using a base station” was included in the post.
