TAI has many past examples of transferring the experience gained from a certain platform to another new product. Therefore, Aksungur could be prepared very quickly. We observe similar processes in target drone to air-launched kamikaze/decoy drones and also helicopter projects. In this context, I think that the Hürjet project can evolve towards every possible product group or that the experience gained there can be quickly transferred to another field.
I believe that TAI can make another big surprise out of nowhere, next year. I have two big expectations from TAI in the fixed-wing unmanned field. The first is that an institution so experienced in aircraft manufacturing, while spending billions of dollars on the integration of stealth technologies, putting forward an long range unmanned bomber with deep strike capability, and we know that such a roadmap and vision existed in the past. The second is work on pseudo-satellites, very high altitude platform stations, which is again TAI is the main institution capable of producing a product in this range.

But who knows. If the platform lives up to the expectations we may see an airforce whose missions could be executed completely by drones. If that were the case, the number I gave wouldn't be so far fetched, imho.
