Shunned by the US, Turkey is preparing to launch its first aircraft carrier — but it will come with a twist

Turkey is close to commissioning its largest warship, the amphibious assault ship TCG Anadolu.

The ship was meant to operate with F-35B jets, but the US kicked Turkey out of the F-35 program.

Turkey will instead operate the Anadolu with drones, using them to project power across the region.

Turkey is getting closer to commissioning its first aircraft carrier, TCG Anadolu. In January, Ankara announced that the ship had begun its acceptance trials, capping off a nearly decade-long development cycle marked by unfortunate delays.

The ship, which is to be Turkey's flagship, will bolster the Turkish military's force-projection and expeditionary capabilities and will make Turkey one of the few countries with a domestically built aircraft carrier.

But Anadolu will be more than Turkey's first carrier. It will also be the world's first flattop with an air wing made up mostly of unmanned aircraft.

The US kicked Turkey out of the F-35 program in 2019, leaving Ankara without fighter jets for its new carrier. But Turkish officials were determined to operate fixed-wing aircraft aboard Anadolu and have turned to Turkey's increasingly capable drone industry to fill in the gap.

Due to the current restrictions of warship entry to the Black Sea via the Bosphorus Straits, Submarine Rescue Mothership TCG Alemdar appears to be the only vessel available to assist in the recovery of the downed US MQ-9 Reaper drone, whether or not the Turks would acquiesce to assist.
