Turkish Defense Industry companies proved themselves to everyone by producing unmanned aerial, land and sea vehicles such as SİHA, TİHA and SİDA. Although it is shown in the top 5 in the world in terms of general production capacity, when we look only at aircraft, we see that it has made its name in the top 3 .
The Bayraktar Akıncı, TB2, Anka and Aksungur SİHA and TİHA models produced by TAI and Baykar are already unknown. But the relatively small-sized rotary-wing ones are not well known. Boyga, which can carry miniature mortars delivered to the TAF by STM, is one of them. Here are the Boyga SİHA features…
STM delivered the Mortar-capable SİHA to the TAF!
STM currently produces many tactical mini UAVs, SİHAs and kamikaze systems, especially Togan, Kargu and Alpagu. In fact, it is known that it is frequently used by TAF forces in the field. Now, a new member named Boyga has joined this family.
But Boyga SİHA differs from other members of the family in terms of its features. Because it can carry a mini mortar with a length of 81 mm. Thanks to the camera on the front, it can detect where it will hit. So it doesn’t need a second surveillance unit.
In the post made by İsmail Demir, President of the Defense Industry, the following was stated:
We have added another capability to the inventory that will give the Mehmetçi a great advantage on the field. The UAV BOYGA, which we developed with national resources, which can release 81 mm ammunition, successfully completed the acceptance tests and was delivered to our security forces. Best wishes.
