I think you misunderstood the comment. I think he stated that they have produced 500 TB2s and are planning to produce 240 next year. on Akinci, 40 would be the accumulated total number at the end of next year.

Correct me if I am mistaken, but please double check your source.

Sorry, I don't understand Turkish.

Is he saying that they will produce 500 in 2023 or that by the end of 2023, 500 TB2s will have been produced?
Yes. He says so far they have produced over 400 TB2s. They have a current yearly capacity of 200 TB2 . But next year they are planning to manufacture 500 TB2s and 40 Akincis.

No, he says they produced over 400 TB-2s and over(?) 20 Akıncı's.

He says this year they will be able to produce 250 TB-2s in total, next year they are planning to pump this number to 500

It indeed is. I wish F500C was there to take advantage of this number. But it all has to go to Canadians or Germans. A big opportunity is being missed.

Yeah, CATS' production rate is 6 month. At least they should triple it to 18 a month for a total of 216 a year (covering 43% of TB2s).

Baykar producing 1.5 TB2s a day is maniac. That is $3.5bn in revenue from TB2 alone in 2023. Adding Akinci, DIHA, Mini revenue on top the total revenue could be around $5bn in 2023

I don't think the customers are opting for CATS. It's inferior to the WESCAM's or Hensoldt's optics. If F500C was ready then the situation might have been different.

Bayraktar TB3, which has the ability to take off and land from ships with short runways, will make its first flight in 2023.

Indonesia is added in the UAV exports map as a likely operator of Anka UAV as they are rumored to buy 3 Anka with a firm order and a total of 10 with options.

I am pretty sure the tweet was about Malaysia, my friend.
Will you be able to find it then.

@Agha Sher

Edit: I found it, it is Malaysia. Lapse of mind on mine side, wrong alarm, wishful thinking. But I think it will happen sooner or later, I would rather leave Indonesia on the map of possible buyers.
