TAI VTOL drone looks so nice, imo the best looking drone. I can't wait for the production model of ANKA-3.
Please use english subtitle.

There are now several small VTOL makes of this type in the market. Looks like the competition will start to win a tender. Baykar spent a lot of time improving their DİHA. I can safely say that Baykar should be ahead in this game.

They made many prototypes and many tests, maturation of the platforms is paramount otherwise many companies can produce some specks. Baykar DİHA looks more streamlined, you can find better images of it.

Is that a different prototype than this one?

After comparing the pictures, it seems to be a different KE under assembly. The KE in Boykaz post is most likely this one (in the background) from your picture. (I deduced that by looking at the angles and windows in the background)

The wingtip of the KE in the front from your post can be seen on Boykaz's post as well.

Really ? No one noticed this news ?


(For the time being TUSAŞ has already started working on the Anka IV project, which EDR On-Line was told will have “a B-2 size.”)
The only engine that should power such a plane would be a non-afterburner Kaan engine. By comparison with the B-21 Raider we can safely say a twin engine plane should be able to carry 7 tons of weapons load inside the weapons bay given a similar flight range is maintained. However in shorter ranges like half the range the weapons load can be around 10 tons all in stealth configuration. It is a no brainer that when you have the engine you can make this plane before long. A non afterburner Kaan engine can very well be made before the proper Kaan engine. So another project to look forward to before Kaan comes online.

Does Turkey even need such a Drone?

Before GAZAP and HAYALET, I would have been excited for it, but since those two bombs can do the same thing as a MOAB and MOP but be used by fighters, is there a purpose for an Anka 4 strategic bomber?
