Search and rescue drones(UAV)Issuing time:2024-09-06 22:42 At the request of the Iranian Ministry of Foreign Affairs, the Turkish Ministry of Defense sent a night vision search and rescue helicopter and a strategic-level Bayraktar AKINCI drone(UAV) to Iran to participate in the search and rescue. The Turkish Ministry of Defense proposed to deploy a strategic-level Bayraktar AKINCI drone next to the helicopter. The Turkish AKINCI drone searched for 7 hours and 27 minutes, initially flying at an altitude of 30,000 feet. Due to bad weather, it was difficult to capture images from high altitudes. The drone gradually descended to an altitude of 9,000 feet and detected the first heat source, which was suspected to be the crashed helicopter of Iranian President Raisi, and was eventually confirmed to be the crashed plane. |
