    Longitude is vertical segmentation and is irrelevant in this case as distance from the Equator is what matters because the Earth rotates around the Equator. Latitude is horizontal segmentation and indicates the distance from the Equator.

    The launch capacity depends of the launch site. Firefly launches from Vandenberg in California which is at the same latitude as the south coasts of Cyprus. If a rocket is launched from an equatorial site it can probably carry 40% more payload. A 50 ton launcher is likely to be a 30m tall rocket...

    They do not publish during development, why should they.

    Low Earth Orbit satellites have to travel around Earth to stay in orbit therefore a constellation of them have to cover entire Earth circumference but not the entire Earth latitudes. This defines an area between two circles on different latitudes. Probably an area between 60° North and 10° South...

    You can start with giving time and positioning service to UAV customers. A service which can not be provided safely for many users otherwise.

    Older systems need like 30 geostationary satellites at 20.000 km altitude to cover the entire globe. But newer system may mean that they will do a similar performance at 550 km altitude. This means a larger number of satellites at lower orbit hence the 100 satellites. Lower orbit is cheaper to...

    Like how, there are hundreds of developers but they don't publish. You don't even get to know what weight they take off with. Please provide sources if you know otherwise.

    There must be ways to facilitate landing which also come with some penalties. One that quickly comes to mind is to employ larger wheels with bigger radius. Another one is to use double wheels with twice the brake surface. This way you can increase braking power but you increase the system weight...

    I had been looking for a location for a spaceport in Somalia on the maps for a long time taking into account a number of considerations. Being closest to the equator gives the advantage of rotational assist from the ground to the tune of 60% less energy required for the same payload compared...

    I used to do that but there was a demand to separate the two as the map started to look too complicated. TUSAŞ colors are on this map just to indicate that those countries are addressed by another Turkish maker if not addressed by Baykar . There is a separate TUSAŞ map here and can be accessed...

    A temporary fix. I bet Baykar will make it clear soon.

    You are not making sense, by your logic I would have painted the whole map already but I obviously haven't. There is a reason for every country to have or not to have acquired a drone system. Not everyone needs some and those who need them may not be aligned with the seller.

    Kaan is a more viable option for Indonesia. They are better off engaging with Kaan so they would be more willing to fully cooperate.

    That doesn't bother me. It must be a matter of time to be materialized. Bayraktars and particularly Akıncı are the most atractive planes for any customer after all.
