The Simulation-Supported Command Post Phase conducted as part of the EFES 2026 Exercise
was carried out this year for the first time using the indigenous software solution
BERTUĞ.

Developed by ETE Teknoloji with contributions from [HAVELSAN](https://www.havelsan.com.tr/en?utm_source=chatgpt.com),
the system was deployed during the phase conducted under the Multinational Joint
Warfare Center Command in Istanbul, supporting exercise management, operational 
simulation, and analysis processes.

BERTUĞ is used as one of the core components of the “Kutup Yıldızı-BERTUĞ” product
family, which has been developed for crisis management, war gaming, computer-assisted
exercises, and operational experimentation activities.

The system is capable of running multi domain operation scenarios covering land,
air, naval, space, and cyber domains within the same simulation environment. Based
on information gathered from different data sources, possible scenarios can be generated,
courses of action can be analyzed, and outputs can be evaluated for decision-support
purposes.

Powered by artificial intelligence and data analytics infrastructure, BERTUĞ can
operate in an integrated manner with live data streams, command and control systems,
sensor networks, and simulation infrastructures.

The system – which is developed with a micro agent based structural simulation architecture–
has previously been used in various computer-assisted exercises and war games involving
national and international participants, including NATO related activities.

By enabling the virtual modeling of real world operational and crisis environments,
BERTUĞ supports users in preparation, coordination, and decision-making processes.

Its deployment during EFES 2026 demonstrates the expanding operational use of Türkiye’s
indigenous solutions in the fields of simulation and multi domain operation technologies.
