The Karayel is a surveillance, reconnaissance and combat unmanned aerial vehicle system developed by Turkey’s Vestel for the Turkish Armed Forces and is also being exported to some other countries. The Turkish Armed Forces placed an initial order for three ground control stations with two Karayel UAVs each. In 2016, the Vestel claimed that the system was already used along Turkey’s eastern border. Nonetheless, there is no official data on the deployment process.
On January 6, the Air Defense Force of Yemen’s Houthis shot down the Karayel drone of the Saudi-led coalition over the northern Yemeni province of al-Jawf.
