The New Sea Hunter UAV to Be Unveiled at SAHA EXPO
Developed within the Turkish defense industry, TALAY claims to be "the world's first low-altitude multi-purpose unmanned aerial vehicle" (UAV) and will be introduced for the first time at SAHA EXPO.
SAHA EXPO, the International Defense, Aviation, and Space Industry Fair organized by SAHA Istanbul—Turkey's and Europe's largest industrial cluster—will take place from October 22-26 at the Istanbul Fair Center, under the auspices of the Presidency and with the support of six ministries and the Presidency of Defense Industries. The event will feature a global communication partnership with Anadolu Agency (AA).
Solid Aero, formed by a team that has previously undertaken various UAV projects, will showcase UAV systems and solutions specifically designed for military and tactical applications at the fair.
Solid Aero, known for its innovative designs, will exhibit TALAY, which claims to be "the world's first low-altitude multi-purpose UAV," for the first time at SAHA EXPO.
TALAY will have a one-to-one model at the fair, developed in response to the need for low-altitude operations over the sea, with a wingspan of 2.60 meters and a fuselage length of 2 meters. It will serve as an effective, high-performance platform for defense, attack, and deterrence missions.
TALAY is capable of neutralizing enemy ships and coastal bases and can perform tasks that require rapid intervention over the sea.
It can fly at an altitude of just 30 centimeters above water and can reach heights of up to 150 meters. These features are expected to add a new dimension to sea operations and attract significant interest in the global market. The operational cruising altitude of TALAY is between 3-5 meters.
Thanks to its low-altitude flying capability, TALAY has a very low probability of radar detection, achieving speeds of over 200 kilometers per hour, making it faster than all potential maritime platforms it targets. TALAY can stay airborne for up to three hours and can also perform low-altitude flights over land for a certain distance.
With its high payload capacity, TALAY can be used in a variety of missions, enhancing operational flexibility. It can carry payloads of up to 30 kilograms, which corresponds to half its weight.
The development process of TALAY's electric model, currently undergoing system and flight tests, is expected to be completed in three months.
With a high domestic production rate, work on the domestic engine for TALAY's maritime patrol model, which has a wingspan of 7 meters, is set to begin with TEI by the end of the year.
