Bayraktar Akıncı Attack Unmanned Aerial Vehicle

AKINCI Assault UAV (TİHA), which has a 20-meter wingspan with its unique twisted wing structure and can carry a large number of mini smart ammunition, will also be smarter and more aware of environmental conditions, thanks to its unique artificial intelligence system, and will offer advanced flight and diagnostic functions to its users.

Aiming to be a leader in its class, like the Bayraktar TB2, Akıncı will also perform some of the tasks performed by warplanes. The electronic support pod it carries will serve with much more advanced payloads such as satellite communication systems, air-to-air radars, obstacle detection radar, synthetic aperture radar. With Akıncı, which will reduce the burden of warplanes, aerial bombardment can also be carried out. Akıncı UAV, which will be equipped with air-to-air missiles developed nationally in our country, can also be used in air-air missions.

Bayraktar Akıncı Attack Unmanned Aerial Vehicle System, which is being worked on to become the most advanced technological system in the world in its class, has been produced locally and nationally as MAM-L, MAM-C, Cirit, L-UMTAS, Bozok, MK-81, MK-82, MK- 83 will be equipped with ammunition, missiles and bombs such as the Winged Guidance Kit (KGK)-MK-82, Gökdoğan, Bozdoğan, SOM-A.
