To me the air to air missile used looks like a solid fuel missile with short motor burn and coasting. Could it be much rumored air launched Sungur instead Eren?
Looks like it was indeed Air-launched Sungur
"Sungur Manpads destroyed the target while being used as air-to-air missile" - SavunmaSanayiTR editor Anıl Şahin

Edit: SavunmaSanayiST edited the tweet to say it was Eren instead but their other tweet saying Sungur air to air was combat proven and Anıl's tweet are still up so idk what is going on lol

People were speculating that it’s a jet rather than a ucav at social media. Some say it was L-15.
Tubby wings and two adjacent heat sources/nozzles makes it close to L-15 rather than an ucav.

According to this website zionistan emiraties have ordered only 2, so lets hope they have nothing more from us like akinci.

Ethiopia had a long-term agreement for up to 12 AKINCI drones, and according to reliable sources, they actively possess at least 3. The agreement with the UAE was much more comprehensive and larger. Frankly, I believe the UAE may have significantly more AKINCI drones than Ethiopia. The AKINCI drones that participated in operations on behalf of RSF in the Sudanese war were 'most likely' deployed by the UAE with the understanding that they were 'expendable,' ( bcs of current political situation and logistical issues) but Ethiopia is another suspect.

We are one of the 'dış güç' in this war. lol. Although we openly support the Sudanese Armed Forces, there are many things imported or transferred from Türkiye at both sides due to the alliance relationships of RSF.

Cem Doğut:

This image doesn't seem like a drone to me at all. There are two engines close to each other (probably jets), short wings, and a protrusion that resembles a cockpit. I wouldn't be surprised if it turns out to be a manned aircraft.

If Akıncı managed to down a manned aircraft with Eren or some other a2a missile it is going to a huge fucking shock to a lot of people and their assumptions about UCAVs. Also, isn't this the wrong thread for it?

I think it was posted here because the missile used is eren which technically is a "Loitering Munition" but UAV thread makes sense as well

Remember the discussions we were having a few years back; can Akıncı shoot down a fighter jet or not, I was saying it can given the opportunity.

Bro, that would create a seismic shock wave.
the incident was already discussed at this thread.

Maybe it's another Akinci
here in todays video if the image taken further away could these ir signiture look like they are next to each other? Because in the post about the wreckage, it seems like it's an Akinci.
