TR UAV/UCAV Programs | Anka - series | Kızılelma | TB - series

I think Turkish Aerospace will make a big surprise about jet powered UAVs at the end of this year or next year.

For obvious reasons ,TUSAŞ is being blocked/ advised to not go on ucav production.
That is why many projects are given to Baykara without any competition like BMC gets deals with out competition.
Do not expect TUSAŞ to produce ucav before akp is gone!!
Even though aksungur produced long before akıncı, we received akıncı first!!

You should really stop this kind of behaviour. TAI is developing UCAVs and are entrusted with the most critical projects. Your comment are so lame and tiring.

The difference is that TAI works in secrecy and develops cutting edge technologies. While Baykar are very open about their projects and progress

MIUS will be heavily AI-driven requiring little to no human interaction.

Yes but AI is limited for now and at the end of the day it will need a human to engage (at least for now). This question came to my mind when I watched how they drive our SIDA's. It looks really limited to me. A camera and you are seeing only a fraqction of the field.

I don't think any MIUS engagement will be camera based. It will receive its mission and based on onboard radars/sensors it will carry it out autonomously.

Interesting, Roketsan is hinting new weapon systems exclusively for MIUS.

Some Observations.

13.11.2021 during a visit.
- TB2 with the Serial No. T220 has been seen

Now 12.03.2022 (4 Months Later) during MIUS reveal
- TB2 with the Serial No. T278 and (T279) can be seen.

If we calculate ca. 280 TB2s minus the 220 TB2s from previous Picture than we have approx. 60 TB2s in 4 Months.

15 TB2s/Month > 180 TB2s/Year

These numbers are staggering and without an additional Factory as well, which might also explain the lack of space in these Pictures.

Where is the munition bay located?

Below the belly

Below the belly

Is it big enough to take som-j or other munitions?

Logically yes (anything else wouldn't make sense) - but I have my concerns as well.

If it doesn't take som j its useless

ANKA and AKSUNGUR production and deliveries continue what do you mean? If someone is left alone and out of UCAV procurement it's Vestel. Over 50 ANKA were produced by now it has different configurations, every branch of the Armed Forces is using them also MIT.

AKSUNGUR for example was favoured by the Navy not AKINCI. You can't compare that to the BMC fiasco.

You guys seriously should stop mixing trash Turkish politics into such topics, TB-2 is cheaper, less complex than ANKA yet it is more than enough to fullfill the required duties. So what is bad about it?

 

[Abdelaziz]

Couldnt TEI build motorsich engine of mius under licence ?

 

[neosinan]

I've seen F125 suggested as an Alternative engine for Mius/AI-322, This would be very hard considering external diameter of AI222 is about 60 cm compare to 90 cm of F125. I think Rolls Royce Mk 106 would be a possible alternative, Mk106 has also 60cm external diameter. And It has similar power output to AI222 (27kn vs 25 kn) More Important, RR is more trustworthy for us Compare to US engine companies.

It looks like AI-25TLT

How can I see Akinci-B's specs?
I can find Akinci's specs but not the B or C variants specs.
