Tilting mechanisms may pose reliability problems and they do have their weight too. I do not see a clear advantage. I would suggest a hybrid design where petrol engine is used both for lift and cruise.

Those electric motors are also the motors that enable VTOL operation. They also made them pretty small already so their burden is smaller. This design is implemented by many companies. It lacks lifting capacity but it works. If the drone is required to be recoverable there needs to be some means...

As a back up plan Hürjet can be flown from the Anadolu but landed on a short airstrip equipped with cable system. Hürjet can then be ferried back to the Anadolu on a warship having a helicopter deck. I am not sure if this can work at all but there maybe occasions that it may be useful. Short...

He described the helicopter as having a pusher propeller. This configuration is good for speed and agility. The technology for changing the angle of attack of the individual blades must be developed.

Nope It's like the Sikorsky 97 Raider with a pusher propeller, fast and agile.

There was some talk back some years ago that there is a lake of oil under southeast Anatolia but the oil was thick and was not economical to extract. Some CO2 tech was needed. If tech becomes cheaper the cheap can get the tech.

Shit talkers are inevitable, believing them is optional.

Some of the leading flying car companies have pivoted from their existing approach and have started designing their winged models. Chief among them are Volocopter of Germany and eHang of China. Birds have wings.

We will never surrender.

2023 + 2 = |2025 - 2028| = 3 years production time. Design time has to be fully allocated but squeezing production time is still possible.

That's what they do when they enter a spin but with the addition of some AI they shouldn't be spinning non stop.

We can only comment on what we know of.

It may be easy but still why test so many? Germany with 10 times the population will nearly be surpassed in a couple of weeks. There must be some objectives in question.

UK has bases in many places and Bayraktar can give affordable access to such technology, very conveniently. 27 hrs of flight time at 27000 ft altitude with abundant spare parts and with impeccable track record. It would be dumb to be left out of the fun.

What is with this posting of huge numbers of test by Denmark. Test numbers jumped up to 52mn catching up Turkey and Germany next. So many test for a small country when death number is posted as "1" "one" a day? @Saithan

Coaxial propellers indicate higher speed.

Am I seeing two planes here or is it because I am drunk or something?

You need hand gun owners around to stop a criminal shooter from shooting innocent people.

Autopilots make helicopters many times safer and TAI is developing its own autopilot for the Gökbey. This is a winner.

I believe there is a good chance that foreign customers may want to buy our larger UAVs in the future. Turkey can be a one stop shop for UAVs.
