11 SEPTEMBER 2026

Developed by Baykar, the AKINCI UCAV (Unmanned Combat Aerial Vehicle) continues to expand its array of long-range munitions. During recent testing, it effectively struck a target located over 250 kilometers away with the UAV-300 missile, developed by Roketsan.

DIRECT HIT FROM OVER 250 KILOMETERS

The AKINCI took off from the Çorlu Flight Training and Test Center in Tekirdağ, proceeding to the Black Sea test area. In this successful trial off the coast of Sinop, the AKINCI achieved a direct hit on a maritime target using the UAV-300 munition, returning to Çorlu afterward along its planned route.

LAYERED STRIKE CAPABILITY

The recent integration of the UAV-300 missile further elevates the long-range, high-impact strike potential of the AKINCI, which had already successfully incorporated the UAV-122 and UAV-230 supersonic missiles. Capable of deploying a diverse range of munitions for various mission profiles against both aerial and terrestrial targets, the AKINCI has solidified its strategic mission capabilities through the integration of indigenous munitions.

MISSION DIVERSITY WITH INDIGENOUS MUNITIONS

The indigenous UCAV development program has successfully integrated an extensive variety of munitions to date, including MAM-L, MAM-L TV, MAM-T, MAM-T IIR/TV, MAM-C, and several others such as the TOLUN family, TEBER-81, TEBER-82, and the ÇAKIR Cruise Missile. This comprehensive arsenal provides the AKINCI with a scalable operational capability, ensuring effectiveness in striking diverse targets from varying distances.

EXPORT CHAMPION

Baykar, maintaining a self-sufficient financing approach, firmly established itself as the largest exporter of unmanned aerial vehicles in 2025, achieving an export volume of $2.2 billion. This impressive figure illustrates Baykar’s pivotal role in Türkiye’s high-technology export landscape, generating 90% of its revenue through exports.

BAYKAR: THE WORLD’S LARGEST UAV COMPANY

Baykar has secured a position among Türkiye’s top 10 exporters across all sectors consistently from 2023 to 2025, receiving multiple Export Champions Awards. The company stood out as the leading exporter in the defense and aerospace industry from 2021 through 2024, representing a significant portion of the sector’s exports and solidifying Türkiye’s status in the global UCAV market. With export agreements established with 39 countries, including 36 for the Bayraktar TB2 UCAV and 16 for the AKINCI UCAV, Baykar continues to represent a formidable force in the unmanned aerial vehicle domain.
