Türkiye’s Hisar Test Center, under the Ministry of National Defense, is set to trial the long-range HİSAR-U air and missile defense system this week. A NOTAM announcement highlighted an 850-kilometer testing area stretching from Edirne to Giresun in the Black Sea. This upcoming test is a significant step in Türkiye’s plan to launch a state-of-the-art air defense system. Recent aerial activity over Kırklareli has heightened anticipation. Following successful tests, the HİSAR-U is projected to be operational within 3 to 5 years.
