India always by overpriced stuff while their people go hungry. I think some people in their establishment are making good money on these shady deals. Also, I am not sure that Turkey would sell Akinci to India

India will never buy drones from Turkey.... period! It has something to do with pride! Just like how the Russians refused to buy Chinese drones during the conflict; it is a shame for a country with superior military (in terms of ranking) to buy drones from a developing nation

The same is with Greece; they bought 3 drones for 400 million dollars.... Dont bother too much about it; it all comes down to pride and honour IMO; I mean how can the mighty indian army buy drones from a nation that just entered the drone market for only 5 years, lool, (that is just how good Baykar is😂

those are made by state-owned companies. Pakistan will be tilted AF if we do that.

Yeah so Turkiye shouldn’t sell any weapons to India because Pakistan will not like it, while Pakistan can do whatever is best for their interest even if it hurts Turkiye.

Seriously what Turkiye is gaining by licking Pakistanis boots ?

I know Akinci is not for ISR missions but god damn +$100 million for 1 Heron that's crazy!

It's better to know than to think before starting this "its crazy!" assertion.

Maybe actually post source of what you are referring to so we see what it is you piling on top of it past that?

The link you posted at the top says 10 drones for 400 million dollars.

Is that 100 million a drone?

Twitter rumours past that is something to assert on?

that last tweet... yikes...

Twitter is just a bunch of garbage larping 99% of the time with these handles.

All I am asking for is an actual official source on costings, if intention is to compare.

Then we can move to look at the capacities/roles of the platforms past that...those are not the same either.

The first link said those are just 4! even if they were 10 that's still a lot.
