Turkish Gendarmerie Forces Receive Three Akıncı B UCAVs TurDef
Turkish Gendarmerie announced that the acceptance of three Akıncı B UCAVs as one system was completed in Baykar’s training facility located in Tekirdağ, Çorlu.

This marks the first delivery of Akıncı UCAVs to the Turkish Gendarmerie, which is operating a fleet of Bayraktar TB2 in a considerable size. Like Bayraktar TB2, Akıncı B UCAVs delivered to the Gendarmerie are in armed configuration as seen from the hardpoints.

Compared to Bayraktar TB2, Akıncı B can carry multiple sensors, which are also more potent thanks to the payload capacity and onboard power generation. Thus, it can be said that the Turkish Gendarmerie has received a level-up in terms of ISR capabilities.

The Turkish Gendarmerie’s operations not only include law enforcement but also counter-terrorism in a closer fashion to the army, compared to the police. Akıncı B UCAVs, coupled with the fleet of T129 ATAK attack helicopters, will ensure a heavier firepower and ISR support required in high-intensity combat situations for said operations.
