Turkish Bayraktar TB-2 and Anka-S drones executed "suppress enemy air defense (SEAD)" and "destroy enemy air defense (DEAD)" in Syria in tasks normally requiring F-16s.
The incident, marking the first of drones for both SEAD and DEAD took place during Operation Spring Shield – a cross-border military operation kicked off on February 27, 2020, by the Turkish Military against Syrian regime elements – in retaliation for an attack that killed 33 Turkish soldiers, Turkish defense analyst Hakan Kılıç said in an interview to Daily Sabah. It was also the first time Ankara staged successful coordination of combat drones, fighter jets and electronic warfare (EW) systems.
