TCG Anadolu has completed the first helicopter landing and takeoff exercises during sea trials, marking an important milestone.
The Turkish Defense Industry Agency (SSB) hosted a press tour aboard the Turkish Navy’s future flagship, TCG Anadolu (L-400)…
The Turkish Navy’s future landing helicopter dock (LHD), TCG Anadolu (L-400), was spotted at sea on June 20, 2022. Company officials confirmed that the aircraft carrier has begun official sea trials.
The Chief Technology Officer of Turkish drone manufacturer Baykar Technologies gave details on the takeoff and landing operations of BAYRAKTAR KIZILELMA (or MIUS), an unmanned fighter aircraft presently in development, aboard Turkey’s planned landing helicopter dock (LHD) Anadolu.
Turkey’s drone maker Baykar revealed the latest photos of MIUS (Muharip Insansiz Ucak Sistemi – Unmanned Combat Aircraft System), Turkey’s future unmanned jet aircraft, on the final assembly line.
On February 27, Turkey’s Landing Helicopter Dock (LHD), the future TCG Anadolu, which is set to become the flagship of the Turkish Navy (Türk Deniz Kuvvetleri) started sea trials.
The designs of Turkey’s prospective Landing Helicopter Dock (LHD), Anadolu, appear to have been modified to deploy more unmanned aerial vehicles.
On July 20, Turkey’s Baykar Defense company introduced the MIUS Project, an autonomous combat aircraft, by releasing concept design images via Twitter. The most notable feature of the images is that the MIUS takes off from Turkey’s future Landing Helicopter Dock (LHD) “Anadolu.” This was unexpected because MIUS had never previously been declared to be deployed aboard a naval asset.
This is the first image showing the take-off and landing concept of TB-3 drones on LHD Anadolu which is currently under construction at Sedef Shipyard…
After Turkey was taken out of the F-35 aircraft program because of CAATSA sanctions imposed by the United States, it has been trying to develop new solutions to deploy fixed-winged air assets on Landing Helicopter Dock (LHD) Anadolu.
