The ship, which will now become the Turkish flagship, is stated to have a deck capacity for 10 helicopters plus 11 UAVs and a hangar capacity for 19 helicopters and 30 UAVs.
For its commissioning ceremony TCG Anadolu was presented with a Baykar Bayraktar TB3 armed UAV and Baykar Bayraktar Kızılelma unmanned combat air vehicle (UCAV) on its flight deck, along with four helicopters.
