The drones were equipped with ASELSAN's ASELFLIR-500 electro-optical system, which is designed for reconnaissance, surveillance, and target acquisition.

The demonstration highlights the increasing sophistication of Türkiye's drone technology and its growing capabilities in modern warfare, particularly in precision strikes from sea-based platforms.
