Turkey has commissioned its largest ship, TCG Anadolu, which can be configured as a landing helicopter dock (LHD) and a drone carrier. The vessel is 231 meters in length and 32 meters in width, and can hold 11 unmanned combat aerial vehicles (UCAVs) or 10 helicopters on its deck, with its hangar capable of holding 30 UCAVs or 19 helicopters. According to Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan, Turkey will become a “leader” in game-changing technologies in defence industries thanks to the multi-purpose ship. 70% of the components of the TCG Anadolu were made in Turkey, and the vessel’s tanks and armoured amphibious assault vehicles are capable of conducting military and humanitarian operations worldwide.
