Turkish Army Practices Artillery-UAV Teaming

In a recent training, the Turkish Army used various artillery pieces with cueing from UAVs.

As part of the operational readiness inspections, Land Forces; “Artillery Fire and UAV and Artillery Fire Regulation Training” was conducted by the 102nd Artillery Regiment Command.

T-155 Fırtına 155 mm and M110A2 203 mm SPGs were present in the training.

Non-line-of-sight observation/ranging with UAVs has become a point of interest for the armies since the Russo-Ukrainian War. The UAVs are utilised to increase the accuracy of artillery guns, rockets, and even automatic grenade launchers by providing real-time position information.

While the types of UAVs used haven’t been disclosed, HAVELSAN’s BAHA and Baykar Kalkan VTOL UAVs are among the possibilities.
