ANKA completes Acceptance Tests, heads towards serial production

[ekrem]

Since its first flight in December 2010, ANKA system has accumulated more than 140 flight hours, during which flight control, data link, propulsion, fuel, landing gear, environmental control, ice protection and electrical systems, as well as mission systems including EO/IR payload, ATC radio and data recorder were tested at altitudes reaching 26000ft. Autopilot, navigation, automatic loiter pattern and ATOLS capabilities were demonstrated throughout the flight envelope, including severe weather conditions.

Contract negotiations are already underway with SSM for the initial serial production of ten ANKA systems for the Turkish Air Force.
