The Ukrainian-Turkish plant, which is being built in Kyiv region, will produce ANKA-type jet drones capable of operating against other air targets. This was stated by the adviser to the head of the office of the President of Ukraine Oleksiy Arestovych in an interview with Radio Svoboda.

"The plant is being built now in Vasylkiv. The construction of a plant has already begun. It will produce Ukrainian-Turkish drones. Including ANKA - heavy drones. Including Ukrainian drones, promising. In particular, we can talk about jet drones, which are interceptors. That is, they are capable of acting against air objects, against other drones. Even against manned aircraft. They will have Ukrainian engines and the rest of Turkish avionics: hull, etc.," he said.

Arestovich clarified that ANKA is the next generation of UAVs after Bayraktar.

"Much cooler, yes. Reactive, not piston, but jet. Although there will be such as ANKA, for example, heavy. UAV, which exceeds Bayraktar in all characteristics," he said.

Meanwhile, Turkey has sold to Ukraine significantly more military drones than previously reported, and new deals on the supply of this type of weapon will be concluded in the near future.

Baykar, an arms manufacturer based in Istanbul, has sold dozens of drones to Ukraine since 2019, together with control stations and missiles, according to several officials and an executive at a Turkish defense company with close government ties. Orders for at least two dozen more drones are under way.

@UkroTurk Can you check this news. I guess he was talking about Akinci?

Dear i didn't watch his interview unfortunately.

i translated the text to Russian because my Ukrainian is beginner level.

As far as i understood, first ANKA will be produced in Ukraine , then there is a plan about unmanned fighter .

İn text there is written "AGKA " which i don't understand. I think he meant first production of ANKA then unmanned fighter.


Here is the English translation of text from Russian not from Ukrainian.

-----++++

- Let's see, history is unpredictable. We don't have much time, Mr. Alexey. Regarding the "bairaktors", the same Putin complained to Erdogan about the "bairaktors". According to Bloomberg, they say that Turkey has agreed to supply more than 30 "Bayrractors" to Ukraine in the near future.

- 24.

- Have you already received it?

- This is a military secret, but somewhere they are close. But the plant is being built now in Vasilkovo. The construction of a plant has already begun, which will produce Ukrainian-Turkish drones. Including "ANKA" - heavy drones. Including Ukrainian drones, which are promising. In particular, we can talk about jet drones, which are interceptors. That is, they are capable of acting against airborne objects, against other drones. Even against manned aircraft. They will have Ukrainian engines and the rest of Turkish avionics: hull, etc.

- They will not be "bairaktors"?

- These are not “bairaktors”. This is the next generation ...

- Even cooler?

- Much cooler, yes. Reactive, not piston, but jet. Although there will be such as "AGKA", for example, heavy. UAV exceeding Bayraktar in all characteristics.

- When can we expect this plant to start working?

- At the end of 2022, it should already publish the first products.

Unlikely. Doubt Turkey would provide the cutting edge MIUS to Ukraine before fielding it itself in large numbers.
