Bayraktar Kizilelma UCAV

The Bayraktar Kizilelma is Turkey’s first jet-powered unmanned combat aircraft, designed for supersonic dogfighting and carrier takeoffs. With a maximum speed of Mach 0.9 and a 1,000 kg payload capacity, it carries a 150 kg air-to-air missile load — 20% heavier than the average UCAV in its class. At $15 million per unit, it offers a cost-to-capability ratio unmatched by manned fighters.
