National S/UAVs flew simultaneously for three different missions

Developed by Baykar, a leading company in the national defense industry, the Bayraktar TB3, Bayraktar KIZILELMA, and Bayraktar AKINCI unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) performed three separate missions in rapid succession. The test flights once again showcased the Bayraktar TB3's firing capabilities, the Bayraktar KIZILELMA's takeoff and landing maneuvers, and the Bayraktar AKINCI's operational sortie flights.

Baykar Chairman Selçuk Bayraktar shared a post on his social media accounts stating that the national UAVs successfully completed various missions by launching in quick succession. The tests demonstrated the Bayraktar TB3's advanced firing capabilities, the Bayraktar KIZILELMA's takeoff and landing performance, and the Bayraktar AKINCI's operational capacity.

The Bayraktar TB3 and Bayraktar AKINCI, currently in the security forces' inventory, have been used effectively in previous operations. The Bayraktar KIZILELMA is expected to be actively added to the inventory next year.

The test flights took place at the Özdemir Bayraktar National Technology Center. The flights were observed by Haluk Görgün, President of the Presidency's Defense Industries, and a high-level delegation from Italy. Italian Deputy Defense Minister Matteo Perego di Cremnago, Italian Air Force Commander Lieutenant General Antonio Conserva, Italian Land Forces Commander Lieutenant General Carmine Masiello, Italian Naval Forces Deputy Commander Vice Admiral Giuseppe Berutti Bergotto, and Simone Ungaro and Carlo Gualdaroni from Leonardo SpA witnessed the test activities.

The delegation had the opportunity to observe the takeoffs and flight performance of the Bayraktar TB3, Bayraktar AKINCI, and Bayraktar KIZILELMA on-site. These platforms, developed by Baykar, were considered a significant indicator of the Turkish defense industry's technological advances in recent years.

The performance of the national UAVs during test flights particularly attracted the attention of the international delegation. These Baykar flights once again demonstrated Türkiye's development in domestic and national defense technologies.
