Turkey has developed a new generation drone carrier
Turkish drone maker Baikar has released new details on its latest armed drone, designed to be launched by drones.
"Bayraktar TB-3, which is still under development, will be a larger and more capable model from the same family as TB-2," said Selcuk Bayraktar, Chief Technology Officer, during an online presentation at Gebze University of Technology. .

"When we started this project, no fixed-wing unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) could take off from a short-lane LHD ship," he explained. "We believe that the TB-3, which can stay in the air for a long time and is equipped with ammunition, will fill the gap in this field," Bayraktar said.
The new TB-3 drones are planned to board the newly developed Turkish aircraft carrier with Anadolu helicopter and UAV dock.
Bayraktar also noted that the ship does not need complex launch and capture systems, adding: "A simple lifting system and rescue nets would be sufficient for safe take-off and landing. Like a combat drone, it can even land without a lifeline.
