piston engine aircraft for anti terror operations

[C130]

Talking about something like these ?

Super Tucano

Hürkuş-C

Hürkuş can carry 4 MK-82 bombs(250 kg each)....that you can't do with an UCAV.

OV-10 Nogs craps on Super Tucano. and Hurkus

Super Bronco just needs updated avonics

Iran has 25 Tucanos used against drug smuggler along Afghan border

What is required for counter terror operations in my opinion for these planes is an optical targeting pod and laser guided bomb/missile kits so they can scout and bomb militants from a safe altitude above 6km without diving down just like armed drones but having ability to carry more payload.

Like these you mean.

I think, Hurkuş-C can do the same job. It would be more cost effective.

Why doesn't Iran send 12 of them to Syria to help SAA ？They can carry smart bombs, right ？ Those planes can help SAA fight ISIL and Nusra terrorists.

The best airplane for LICO is the American A-10 Warthog. At just $15 million a pop, it's the most cost effective platform that delivers incredible results on the battlefield. That's why the A-10 Warthog is such a badass plane!!
