Showcasing Türkiye’s UAV innovation at VERTICON 2025

Pasifik Teknoloji’s defense subsidiary, Titra, will participate in VERTICON 2025, held in Dallas from March 11 to March 13.

The event will gather over 15,000 industry professionals and more than 600 exhibitors to explore advancements in helicopters, advanced air mobility, unmanned aerial systems, and electric vertical takeoff and landing (eVTOL) aircraft.

This year, particular emphasis will be placed on cargo and logistics solutions.

Titra will present a model of DUMRUL and a showcase version of ALPIN, highlighting the company’s contributions to UAV-based logistics solutions in the aviation sector.

DUMRUL and ALPIN: Advanced rotary-wing UAVs

DUMRUL is an electrically powered, silent helicopter with a takeoff weight of 17–18 kilograms and an endurance of up to 30 minutes. Designed for close-range surveillance, the UAV is equipped with integrated imaging systems and weapons, enabling effective engagement with targets. Developed to meet operational requirements, DUMRUL is being prepared for its first mission.

ALPIN, Türkiye’s first indigenous unmanned helicopter, has a flight endurance of up to nine hours, thanks to its extended fuel tank. With a payload capacity exceeding 200 kilograms, it supports both military and civilian applications by facilitating the secure transport of equipment and supplies.

ALPIN is capable of fully autonomous takeoff and landing as well as executing pre-programmed missions. It has already entered service with Türkiye’s security forces.

Expanding global presence

Titra continues to enhance its international visibility by expanding its UAV portfolio and engaging with global stakeholders.

During the exhibition, company representatives will hold discussions with international delegations to further this vision.

Muhammed Selman Donmez, Board Member of Pasifik Teknoloji and Co-Founder of Titra Teknoloji, commented on the company’s participation in the event: “As Pasifik Teknoloji, we are committed to innovation and global expansion. We are proud to showcase Türkiye’s strength and potential in the unmanned aerial vehicle sector at VERTICON 2025 in Dallas.”

“By highlighting our DUMRUL and ALPIN platforms, we are emphasizing our country’s technological innovation. As we advance toward our globalization goals, we are also demonstrating the pioneering steps and superior quality of our local engineers to the world.”
