Pakistan will Produce ANKA Drones with Turkish Aerospace Industries TAI

Turkish Aerospace Industries (TAI) said it inked a contract with Pakistan's National Engineering and Science Commission (NESCOM) to produce components for TAI's medium-altitude, long-endurance (MALE) combat drone, Anka. Anka can stay in the air for more than 24 hours at an altitude of 30,000 feet (9,144 meters) with a payload capacity of 250 kilograms (550 pounds). The combat UAV has three configurations. The Anka-S configuration has Beyond Line Of Sight (BLOS) capability through satellite links and is being used by the TSK and the Gendarmerie units. The Anka-B configuration can use Link Relay capabilities and is also used by the TSK and the Gendarmerie. The Anka-I, which is the configuration that performs signal intelligence, is used by the MIT. #Pakistan #Turkey
