The Bayraktar TB3 UAV, developed exclusively and domestically by Baykar, is eagerly awaiting its inaugural flight.
Türkiye's TB3 Armed Unmanned Aerial Vehicle, featuring a foldable wing structure, has successfully completed its third high-speed test.
Baykar's Chairman of the Board of Directors, Selçuk Bayraktar, shared images of the testing phases with the statement: "First to the skies, and next, to the TCG Anadolu..."
Bayraktar TB3 was developed relatively quickly, building upon the foundation of Bayraktar TB2.
It incorporates several key features, including foldable wings, SATCOM payload capability, a 1450-kilogram take-off weight, a 24-hour flight endurance, six weapon stations, and the ability to operate at high altitudes.
The capabilities that Bayraktar TB3 will offer represent a significant innovation within its class of unmanned aerial vehicles.
Bayraktar TB3 will also feature beyond-line-of-sight communication capability, enabling it to be controlled effectively from extended distances.
Bayraktar TB3 will significantly enhance Türkiye's deterrent capabilities by conducting reconnaissance, surveillance, intelligence, and attack missions against foreign targets using the smart munitions it carries.
