Turkish defense manufacturer Baykar has unveiled its highly anticipated Mızrak (Spear) Smart Loitering Munition at the SAHA 2026 global defense exhibition in Istanbul. Boasting an operational range of over 1,000 kilometers and a seven-hour endurance, this AI-powered platform can autonomously track and strike targets even in environments with heavily jammed GPS signals. The versatile system offers remarkable operational flexibility, capable of launching from conventional runways or utilizing rocket assistance for rapid deployment in rugged, unprepared terrains. Armed with up to a 40-kilogram warhead and advanced optical guidance, the munition seamlessly networks with Baykar’s existing drone fleet to serve as a powerful force multiplier. By combining persistent surveillance with deep-land precision strike capabilities, the Mızrak represents a significant leap forward in modern battlefield technology.
