Kirpican accommodate 10 fighters and three crew members. The body of the machine provides protection of the personnel against improvised explosive devices and mines, armor-piercing ammunition and fragments of artillery shells, and is also equipped with an automatic fire extinguishing system. They can also be armed with a 7.62 mm or 12.7 mm machine gun.

Turkey has also provided a TRLG-230 MLRS from Turkish defense giant Roketsan, a rocket launcher that can launch a laser-guided munition up to 70 kilometers.

The peculiarity of the application of these systems is as follows: first, the rocket flies using satellite communication. When approaching the target, it switches to the laser guidance of the Bayraktar TB2 UAV, which works for guidance. After that, the missile hits the target with an accuracy of about 100%.

Also, Turkey provided and continues to provide munitions for Bayraktar drones, in particular Sungur – a short-range anti-aircraft missile action, which Turkey produces in several configurations, and MAM-C guided bombs.
