Kudos for TAI for turning the Simsek into a weapon rather than just a decoy for target practice.
Not just decoy but "decoy+kamikaze drone".

If Simsek was just decoy, it could be identified by enemy intelligent systems and simply ignored. However, when Simsek is also a kamikaze drone, it cannot be simply ignored. It should definitely be blocked.

This blocking effort will put an heavy burden on the enemy air defense.

Finally a good use for the TJ90 engine which can enable its serial production and more affordable price. They should also turn it into a simple turbofan engine which will enable longer flight times and possible civilian applications.

I disagree with you , american drones have better engine , CATS , SATcom , payload and many others . let's not overhype the akinci
Does the MQ-9B have AESA radar, Air to Air missiles?

I would not underestimate it as well! Those who underestimated Turkish drones had to feel it in a painful way.

Aksungur broke its endurance record by staying in the air for 60 hours (fucking 2.5 days lol). According to TAI Aksungur can increase its endurance record even further.

The more I see those PKK terrorists, the less I become able to differentiate whether this individual is a male or female, lool
