MAM-T Used For The First Time
Bayraktar AKINCI UCAV’s first shot test was the first in terms of ammunition developed. MAM-T, the new member of the MAM (Mini Intelligent Ammunition) family, developed nationally by Roketsan, was used for the first time in this test. Developed to meet the need for higher warhead efficiency and longer range, the MAM-T Block-1 configuration has an ammunition and semi-active laser seeker head that provides high sensitivity against moving and stationary targets. Developed to be compatible with different platforms, MAM-T can be used against armored and unarmored vehicles, buildings and surface targets with 30+ km range capability in UAVs.
Bayraktar Akıncı UCAV made its first flight on 6 December 2019. The test activities carried out in the AKINCI Flight Training and Test Center located at Çorlu Air Square Command are carried out with 3 Bayraktar Akincı UCAV prototypes.
