Our Vision
To become a pioneering student team that builds national technology in autonomous aerial systems and makes its mark nationally and internationally.
Leaving our markon the skies of tomorrow.
Astra is a combat UAV that finds its target with its own eyes, locks on and completes its mission autonomously. It is built by young engineers at Alanya Alaaddin Keykubat University.

We set out to shape autonomous aviation
The Astra UAV Team is an interdisciplinary student team at Alanya Alaaddin Keykubat University. We combine our mechanical, electronics and software skills towards one goal: a combat UAV that performs its missions fully autonomously.
Our aim is to contribute to Türkiye’s National Technology Initiative and to build competitive, original solutions in the Combat UAV arena.
