TUSAŞ CEO Mahmut Aksit said TF6000 and TF10000 engines could be used in ANKA-3 and KIZILELMA unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs).

"Adding an afterburner to the TF6000 engine transforms it into a TF10000. In terms of size, weight and power it can be fitted to both the ANKA-3 and KIZILELMA, as well as our domestic landing boat," Aksit added.
