Unmanned helicopter Titra Alpin participated in the anti-terrorism operation!

Built by Titra on a helicopter platform that can accommodate 2 people and stay in the air for a maximum of three and a half hours, Alpin has improved its existing features many times in a very short time. So much so that the version that went into mass production last year can carry 25 percent more load than its prototype and has a flight time that is nearly 25 percent longer.

So how is it used in the fight against terrorism and for what other purposes can it be used? First of all, let us state that the unmanned helicopter Alpin is currently in the Turkish Armed Forces inventory. It is even known that he carried ammunition and food to the military base in the Metina region in northern Iraq.

This shows that it has become the best solution for logistics in areas where there is no runway for aircraft to land and take off, in mountainous areas where you cannot move with armored vehicles, or when you want to reduce the cost of these shipments.

Of course, it is possible to use it not only for logistics, but also in many different areas. For example, since the payload carrying capacity is 200 kg, missile and rocket systems or radar and electronic warfare systems can also be integrated. Additionally, we should point out that it can also be used for civilian purposes thanks to its logistical ease.
