This system is classified for the Medium-Altitude, Long-Endurance (MALE) role and can provide airborne attack and reconnaissance functionality in real-time to operators and commanders on the ground.

Qualities



Going the Distance


The TB2 features an operational endurance of some 27 hours allowing it to operate in the skies over contested spaces for some time. This provides commanders with excellent tactical advantages along fluid fronts.

Attack the Block


The aircraft arrives with four hardpoints set under the wings ready to accept - and deliver - various air-to-surface ordnance types including missiles, bombs, and mortars countering armor, light-armored vehicles, and even infantry positions.

Hanging with the Big Boys


The Bayraktar TB2 can reach operating altitudes matching that of helicopters and aircraft, inherently keeping it out of harm's way. Couple this with its relatively quiet function and the Hunter-Killer can match wits with the best the modern battlefield has to offer.

Inherent Modularity


The system can be outfitted with various payload types to suit the customer need and the battlefield requirement. This includes Electro-Optical (EO), InfraRed (IR), and fighter-like Active, Electronically-Scanned Array (AESA) radar.
