As of September 2026: Operated TCG Anadolu and ran the Denizkurdu exercise
Turkey's Bayraktar TB3 drone flew off the short deck of the navy's TCG Anadolu landing helicopter dock, dropped two sonobuoys into the water, and processed the acoustic data in real time. It is the aircraft's first anti-submarine mission — work previously handled by manned patrol planes, helicopters, and warships.
