The TB3, along with the Kızılelma drone, will take on the crucial roles of reconnaissance, enemy engagement, and air defense.</p><p>The Anadolu, which will soon accommodate these formidable drones, represents a groundbreaking step in naval aviation. This innovative integration will extend the vessel’s capabilities to include uncrewed reconnaissance and offensive and defensive operations.</p><p>It’s worth noting that the Kızılelma jet-powered drone has already commenced active flight testing on December 3, 2022.</p><p>While the Bayraktar TB3 may resemble the Bayraktar TB2 in some aspects, it distinguishes itself with a broader range of capabilities and larger dimensions. With a wingspan of 14 meters and a length of 8.35 meters, the TB3 offers more extensive operational capabilities than its predecessor.</p><p>The maximum takeoff weight of the TB3 is 1,450 kilograms, with a payload capacity of 280 kilograms, representing a significant increase compared to the TB2’s 750 kilograms and 130 kilograms, respectively. Additionally, the TB3 employs a different engine, the 172-horsepower PD170 from Turkey’s TEI, replacing the 100-horsepower Rotax 912.</p><p>This advancement in drone technology and naval integration marks a crucial development in Turkey’s defense capabilities and underscores its commitment to bolstering its presence in the realm of unmanned aerial systems. The Bayraktar TB3 is set to play a pivotal role in transforming naval operations and extending Turkey’s capabilities in the maritime domain.</p>

첫댓글 TB2가 아르메니아는 마구 두들겨도 러시아에게는 그렇게 하지 못한 것을 보면 TB3 실은 LHD의 한계도 드러나네요. 방공망 약한 나라를 상대로나 먹힐 전력...
당장 무인기 조종하려면 전파침묵 유지하기도 힘들 텐데 강대국 상대로는 못 써먹을 물건 같습니다.
@위종민 끽해야 소총, 기관총만 있고 SAM 없는 남베트남의 베트콩을 상대로 할 A-1, A-4를 잔뜩 실었던 항모 Intrepid와 비슷합니다.

이 글에선 전략적으론 유인항공모함을 운영할 여력이 없는 중간규모 국가가 드론항모를 잘 써먹을 수 있을 거라고 보네요. 터키나 이란같은 나라는 연안으로 접근 가능한 저강도 분쟁 지역에서 무인항공기를 잘 써먹을 수 있을 것이라고.
하지만 무인항공기로 공중우위를 확보하는 게 불가능한 이상 혁명적인 수단이 되지는 못할 거라고 평가합니다.
