Anka-3 appeared with its renewed color
The unmanned aerial vehicle Anka-3, whose work has been kept secret, has come to the fore again with a new image. The model, which will serve as a stealth aircraft, will also represent a first for Türkiye.

In addition, it successfully completed the runway passing test. It will take part in many different missions such as reconnaissance, surveillance, intelligence, air-ground attack, air-air attack.
