KARGU was developed by the Turkish STM to carry out reconnaissance and attack missions. The quadcopter drone has a range of 5 km, endurance of 30 minutes and can be armed with a variety of explosive warheads. The ammunition has artificial intelligence, image processing capability, including face recognition.
