The kit turns 227kg Mk82 and 907kg Mk84 general purpose bombs into cost-effective, reliable, precision-guided munitions, improving accuracy and delivery range against static and moving targets, as well as reducing collateral damage. The kit comprises a semi-active laser (SAL) seeker, a guidance section, a thermal battery, a canard control system and a rear wing.
The Akinci UCAV, with a 20m wingspan and a 1,350kg payload capacity, has an endurance of up to 24 hours and a 12,000+m service ceiling. It will be equipped with a locally-made AESA radar and the Gökdogan and Bozdogan air-to-air missiles, as well as several types of locally-made munitions, such as the SOM standoff missile.
