You can see the differences in wing and landing gear straight away.
One question though: If only 28 Anka’s have been delivered to date, how come in 2020 there is one with No 49 stamped on it, ready to fly?
Let me correct the last paragraph if you don’t mind;
He also said that mass production will start before the end of the year for Aksungur.
The key point here is ; When the interviewer asked if only 28 Anka’s were delivered out of 75 ordered, if there are requests to convert the orders to...
Having read your post again I realised that I misunderstood. You are talking about attacking enemy positions with the help of small drones. Like it is in Korhan’s introductory video After 45th sec. and 1min.
As I have mentioned in my post; Australians have already managed to produce ”Green Hydrogen” from water by electrolysis cheaply. According to reports it is half the price of equivalent gasoline energy. They are in the process of making bulk production feasible by 2030.
The trick is to be able to produce Hydrogen at least as cheap as gasoline. For this, a measurement unit called GGE (Gasoline Gallon Equivalent) is used. 1 kg of Hydrogen is equivalent to 4 gallons of gasoline in terms of energy output. So 1 kg of hydrogen has to be 4dollars or less.

That is your opinion!
As I said I am a realist.
Once again, I say let us leave this discussion here. Let us agree to disagree! I will not respond to this anymore!
I do have confidence in my country and strongly believe in the exploration of hydrocarbons in land and in sea. It makes me happy to see new finds. Like all true Turks should be. But I am also a realist and can not be blind to world realities. As @Nein2.0(Nomad) has said there is no time now to...

Nice article.
We may see an operational TB3 within 12 months.
A jet UCAV however should prove to be more along the lines of what we actually need.
You probably misunderstood!
I meant neither is Russia, a Libya or an Iran or a Venezuela. But there are so many restrictions on their oil and gas sales. European countries and us are being pressurised not to buy Russian Gas and Oil.
As you, I also said in my previous post, that we need enough...
This has got nothing to do with having Iron Resolve! The more you stand firm against these trusts the deeper you sink in to the mud.
Chavez tried it in Venezuela. Look where it got them! They have the largest known oil reserves in the world. But the country is starving.
Iran’s Mullah’s have a...
Having substantial oil and gas reserves will not help us to be independent or richer or more developed.
Just look at all the oil and gas rich countries. If you are not prepared to let the Oil-Trusts to take a big portion of the “Cake”, you have no chance. Even Russia is in deep economic and...
In 2013 Turkish SSM ordered 10 Anka-S drones with 12 ground control stations at a cost of 290million US dollars.
Tunisia purchased 3 Anka-S drones and 3 ground control stations for a price of 80 million US dollars.
Simple arithmetic with inflation correction, gives you around 20million dollars...
If there is a will there is a way!
As per the article I shared from Defense Turkey Magazine, Meteksan is working closely with Baykar to incorporate it in to Bayraktar UAV’s. MILSAR is still in development stage. They were considering it for Anka too. The advantages it presents can not be swept...
I still think that for UCAV operations, MILSAR SAR UAV GMTI Radar is the way forward. It will operate with a 30km range be it cloudy, rainy, snowy. It can differentiate autonomously between civilian equipment/people and military. It can target accordingly...

Aselsan’s Tufan Rail Gun is still being developed.
Around two years ago they had achieved a muzzle velocity of 3000m/sec and broken the record in Turkey. This means the projectile was leaving the muzzle...
