CNN Turk Radyo Ankara 16d15d Impact 8

TUSAŞ has delivered the jet-powered 'Super Lightning' Unmanned Aerial Vehicle (UAV) to the Turkish Armed Forces last month. The system is designed to operate with high maneuverability to evade detection. The aircraft utilizes variable radar speeds to maneuver like a chameleon in flight. The platform is designed for training air force personnel, producing decoy targets, and executing various mission scenarios. It features a multi-role structure suitable for modern aerial warfare. The platform can be deployed from ground-based rocket-assisted systems or launched from unmanned aerial vehicles such as Anka, Anka-3, and Aksungur. The system supports swarm flight concepts, allowing multiple units to perform coordinated missions simultaneously. The delivery follows preparations for upcoming mass events and union celebrations.
