Türkiye to adopt the world’s first drone ship

Türkiye is preparing to adopt the world’s first amphibious assault ship designed to accommodate combat drones.

The new TCG Anadolu ship can accommodate up to 10 helicopters and 11 UAVs on deck and up to 19 helicopters and 30 UAVs in the hangar. It is 231 meters long and 32 meters wide and is capable of reaching speeds of at least 20.5 knots.

The development of TCG Anadolu started back in 2018 and from 2022 it started to pass entrance exams. Bayraktar TB3 UAVs will be placed on board this landing ship, which will significantly enhance the capabilities of the Turkish military in conducting operations.
