The Anka III drone is designed to destroy ground targets, including suppressing air defense systems.

The Turkish jet-powered attack drone Anka III has made its first flight. Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan announced this on Thursday, December 28, on the social network H.

“Our Anka III unmanned military aircraft, developed by TAI, successfully completed its first flight today,” Erdogan said in a statement.

Erdogan also expressed hope that Turkish aircraft will make a significant contribution to Turkey’s defense with their advanced technology, design and performance.


Anka III is the first Turkish tailless UAV with a turbofan engine. It has a flying wing design and can reach a top speed of 787 km/h. Its cruising speed is 463 km/h. Flight autonomy 10 hours. Anka III should take Turkey’s drone capabilities to the next level. The Anka III drone is designed to destroy ground targets, including suppressing air defense systems.

Let’s recall that in June, Turkey presented at the Paris Airshow a new cargo UAV, created for the needs of law enforcement agencies.

It was previously reported that Turkey has developed a UAV with a “variable appearance.” The UAV is equipped with four cameras and can rise to a height of up to 200 meters in a short time.
