DTurkey has managed to enter the top 3 in the world with the unmanned aerial vehicles it has developed. In fact, these SİHAs are shown as game changers in the wars they are involved in. Now, we see that a similar situation is experienced in marine vehicles. So much so that they can even perform herd tasks thanks to their advanced software. Here are the ASELSAN signed ALBATROS-S and its features…
ALBATROS-S stands out with its swarm action features!
We shared SİDA’s such as ULAQ, SALVO, SANCAR, MARLIN and MIR, which were developed in cooperation with the state and private sector in Turkey in the past period. Some of them can move in swarms, while others can be used in coast guard, patrol or electronic warfare missions.
