The tank is where the engine is. There is no tank without an engine, Otokar made a tank with many strings attached. That is no different from the F35, you can have it but it is not yours, you can not use it when you want to.
Turkey's largest space rocket planned will take a soft landing piece of equipment to the Moon in 2028.
Before that in 2023 a Turkish made second stage carried on a foreign first stage will take a crash landing piece of equipment to the Moon.
Akıncı was probably also developed with the purpose of taking some of fighter jets' bomber roles therefore it came with wider chord wings which lends itself to heavier lifting for a given wingspan whereas Reaper didn't have such a design purpose and comes with slender wings which lends itself to...
I didn't know Haluk Bayraktar has design knowledge but Selçuk Bayraktar possibly has.

Canik outs its newest competition pistol the SFx Rival.

Akıncı has a range 2.6 times as much as the Reaper, obviously Akıncı is using more of its payload capacity for fuel resulting in more endurance/range. Akıncı can possibly trade some of its fuel allowance for ammunition.
Roll out is with engine running; systems that enables this are not too many.
First flight May 18 2025 is 24 months after roll out which is ample time.
Year 2028 is not dated to the day or month, all sounds reasonable.
The point here is it is being confirmed that they are actually working on such a design rather than this design being one of the possibilities. Such a delta design also supersonic is quite satisfactory as it is.
Garbage collectors have pretty good smart phones and all.
Erdoğan says "if there are hungry people then where are your projects to feed them" and the opposition has none. And they answer "you made them hungry" instead of saying "here are our projects".
