Selçuk Bayraktar said, "I can say that we have difficulties in raising demands for Bayraktar TB2 from time to time."
Baykar Technology Leader and Turkey Technology Team Foundation (T3 Foundation) Chairman of the Board of Trustees Selçuk Bayraktar went to Aksaray to watch the Rocket Races organized within the scope of TEKNOFEST, of which he was the Chairman of the Board of Directors.
Bayraktar said that they are pleased to encourage the youth of the country to science and technology.
Bayraktar said, "Competitions like these lead to the emergence of inventors in a sense," and added that the automotive industry and electric and smart cars, which are considered a great revolution in this sector, were born from such competitions.
Bayraktar TB3 and unmanned warplane
Providing information about the unmanned aerial vehicles developed by Baykar, Bayraktar said:
"There is a great interest in our unmanned aerial vehicles from all over the world. Especially after the Idlib and Azerbaijan-Karabakh operations, this interest has increased a lot. In fact, our Bayraktar TB2 unmanned aerial vehicle has participated in the Idlib operation (Operation Spring Shield), Operation Olive Branch, Operation Euphrates Shield and the last There is a great interest from the world, as he participated in the operation in Azerbaijan, and I can even say that we have difficulties in raising demands for Bayraktar TB2 from time to time.
Baykar thus obtains more than 70 percent of its revenues from exports. There are more than 10 contracts signed so far. Some of them were also exported. On the other hand, we are also working for Akıncı. We made the first delivery of Akıncı. There is a great interest in him. We have not yet responded to those requests because we expected to deliver and qualify our aircraft. Currently, from anywhere that buys Bayraktar TB2 , we see that there is interest from everywhere we signed the export contract, plus from other countries. Akıncı is a more advanced system because it can do much more strategic tasks. On the one hand, we continue to rapidly develop our Bayraktar TB3 and unmanned fighter aircraft project."
"I think we will start to see this success in SİHAs in different areas"
Selçuk Bayraktar emphasized that he believes that the country will continue to make a name for itself in the defense industry and said:
"When we look at the history of technology, the defense industry has always been a locomotive. We see that the roots of all the major technologies we use are in the defense industry. Computer technology, global positioning system, and the changing internet technology that transforms the whole world are such technologies that have emerged for the first time for the defense industry. The mobile phones we use, the mobile devices The infrastructure of all of them was born with the needs of the defense industry. Our country is experiencing that 'premature birth' period. If it succeeds in spreading this transformation that it has achieved in the defense industry by spreading to these civilian areas from now on, we will see that big technology initiatives emerge from our country in a much wider range in the world. I think we will start to see this success in other civilian areas, in very different areas."
Selçuk Bayraktar, "Bayraktar TB2 için 'zaman zaman talepleri yetiştirmekte zorlanıyoruz' diyebilirim" açıklamasını yaptı.
