    If you will be able to deploy plenty of them then their locations will not matter all that much. But when you only have a few of them you don't want their locations to be known.

    We are selling 4 replenishment/refueling ships to India. We have sold 30% of one of our small military drone companies to Indians. I don't think we need to outsource our weapons development.

    Radar guidance of weapons will be a first for Baykar so air to air engagement will probably be the last capability to be implemented but Baykar will not waste anytime to poor planning as its radar should also be ready by the time the plane is good for flying. As long as the components are...

    Selling drones to India means they pay the money to Türkiye and not to one of the other 3 big players. If we don't sell someone else already does.

    India can use drones to counter actions of China too, so they have other concerns than Pakistan alone. If it becomes a problem for Pakistan we can stop selling more, but we should start selling first so that we can stop selling later.

    The systems first triad on Akıncı can pave the way for faster deployment on MIUS. Also MIUS's success in simply flying will mean it is only a matter of time to implement ancillary systems. And that time can always be shrunken by hard work. Even a few flying prototypes can give operational...

    This design is no heavy lifter. The tilted rotors pose some risk of malfunctioning. But if they can make it work well it will be fast and agile. All three rotors are tiltable so it is safe to assume it is pure electric powered which means small amount of energy for payload or endurance. Can do...

    US, Russia and China have more at risk downing somebody else's satellite. We have our hand in laser weapons development too, we can get there in due time. Every system needs to be backed up with alternate means for better reliability. Quantum communication can play a role in this also.

    Considering how 5G terrestrial networks bring down latency under 0.1 second and 6G possibly going even under it is a sure thing it can be done unless you are far away from the mainland. When far from the mainland low flying satellites can be a solution, like the starlink network but covering...

    Humans stay in the loop for as long as possible and can instruct the on-board brains to make sure the decisions are very well made. Like do not shoot the adversary by yourself. The couple of seconds of comms latency can be compensated by prior instructions. Swarms of drones can be employed to...

    It is only months before we learn what Kızılelma can do for us. If things go as expected it is no more that we need somebody else's fighters.

    It is only recently that we have dropped the terrorism problem from our list of problems. Number of defense projects went from 65 to 750. I am not listening to delusional talk anymore.

    No offense, but you do not have the background to evaluate what is what in Türkiye. That person can talk to steal votes from AK Party but every person who has lived in Türkiye long enough knows that the things that are being done now can not be kept going without strong determination and push...

    A short take off plane can take off from short air trips. Let's say your airports are damaged somehow or you want to launch from unknown locations. Moreover, if one day a countermeasure acquires the capability of taking out unmanned planes we will need manned versions.

    I've never meant that the arresting wires are for take off but thinking again they maybe worked in reverse to accelerate the plane, I don't see why not.
