ANKARA (AA) - Turkey has managed to be one of the few countries with air-to-air missile technology, said Turkish president on Wednesday.

Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan announced on Twitter that Turkey has become one of the few countries with air-to-air missile technology.

“Our air-to-air in-sight missile Bozdogan, developed by our young technicians and engineers in the Goktug project, hit the target at the first shot,” he said, thanking the developers of the missile.
