What was disclosed?
TUSAŞ has published updated technical data for the serial production configuration of its ANKA-3 combat unmanned aircraft system. The new information highlights the platform's payload capacity, mission radius, dimensions and mission systems.
Flying wing and low observability
ANKA-3 is being developed with a flying wing design and a low radar observability goal. This approach aims to combine aerodynamic efficiency with reduced detectability by radar in combat drones.
Mission spectrum
Beyond air-to-ground strike and air-to-air missions, the platform is also planned for electronic warfare roles. Capabilities for manned and unmanned platforms operating together are also within scope.
Why it matters
ANKA-3 is one of the platforms embodying Turkey's ambitions in combat unmanned aircraft. Finalizing the serial production configuration is significant for shaping the production and entry-into-service timeline.
