Also, the SUNGUR man-portable air defence system developed by Roketsan was integrated as an air-to-air missile, which will enable the Bayraktar TB3 to hit aerial targets (UAVs, loitering munitions and helicopters).
The exhibition shows what types of ammunition the Bayraktar TB3 attack UAV will be equipped with:
▪️ Kuzgun-TJ/SS guided bomb.
▪️ Smart micro-munitions MAM-T, MAM-L, MAM-C.
▪️Sungur Air-to-Air missiles.
▪️ Bozok air-to-ground missiles.
▪️ Mini cruise missile KEMANKEŞ.
▪️ TOLUN mini cruise missile.
▪️ Guided missiles Desert Sting-16, Desert Sting-25.
Thanks to the folding wing design of the Bayraktar TB3 UAV, it will be the world's first attack unmanned aerial vehicle capable of taking off and landing on ships with short runways, such as TCG Anadolu.
