Absolutely, that was their mistake and made the Turkish flying car industry cringe. It was both an effort worthless of any merit and also a slap to the industry trying to steal the show from enthusiasts.

It was a valid effort.
Without taking risks, you get nowhere. I'm sure they gained a lot of experience making that IF it were really a failed project.

It is like TAI getting in such projects, they claimed the first flying car flight of Türkiye doing that. Such a greedy act like there is no one else in aviation other than themselves.

There are still those who pit a giant like Tusaş against Baykar. Some reason and logic please.

Especially on youtube and twitter there are a lot of these types, they must be paid trolls.

 

[GoatsMilk]

Just out of interest what exactly does baykar design, develop and manufacture?

If we look at the kizilelma what specifically is baykar made? For example the engine is Ukrainian and eventually it will be replaced with a Turkish engine from a different company to baykar. The munitions are made by other Turkish companies for example. The optics are made by aselsan or at least will be in time. Of all the subsystems does baykar make any themselves?

Is there anything that would make sense for a drone company to focus on and expand on?

Yes. And then there are people like this:

Akıncı first fast taxi 2 December
Akıncı first flight 6 December

KE first fast taxi 3 December
KE first flight 7 December ?

 

[Baryshx]

Yes. And then there are people like this:

The friend underestimated it a bit, this is how things are going all over the world. Software and algorithms determine this.

Such mutual bickering will not improve us, but we should not get too high either.

lads for me a Turkish development is a Turkish development. Its not about putting one against the other, i asked a serious question. Because in england the drones get brought up a lot but once you start talking about them, people go into how baykar mostly assembles. I'm not judging that i'm simple interested to know what exactly they manufacture. Because it does look like that most of the parts are sourced from other companies. Which would have led me onto the next question, which parts makes sense for Baykar to bring inhouse and expand on?

And are there any companies within Turkey that would make sense to be brought out or merge with baykar?

This is normal TAI gets the electronics from Aselsan and the ammunition from Roketsan This is not a defect

If people love asking those bullshit questions.

Why dont they ask why Lockheed Martin or Northrop Grumman dont make their own engines?

 

[Ryder]

Funny how people never ask how cars are made?

Especially the brakes and tyres where do car manufacturers get them from? They dont make them thats for sure they get them sourced by other companies.

Do they make it themselves no they contract it to other companies like Brembo, BBS, Michelin and Bridgestone

Probably. I expect some announcement on 7 December as SSIK is planned for that day.

Obviously i know why they do it, its to disparage Turks and basically indirectly imply that Turks are useless and they cannot possible build advance tech. I've long learned to understand that when in concerns Turks much of the world has an insecurity complex towards us. Due to our own imperial history and due to the fact Turkey was never colonised despite part of it being directly in europe.

But my question isnt about any of this, i honestly wondered what parts are made inhouse. Obviously for many things it wouldn't make sense fot it to be made inhouse like tires for example. You got companies who already produce them as economically efficiently as possible producing millions of tyres a year, no sense to make it inhouse and its not a product that you can be embargoed over.

But in terms of other systems, is there anything that makes sense to bring inhouse? This is why i asked about what they manufacture?

It will require some effort but here's the "Open Positions" at BAYKAR. You can read and learn what technologies they develop and manufacture.

Anything and everything that can be made in house is currently being made in house. largely due to the fact that the powers that be are quite generous with embargoes and shifty business.

even the tires. Petlas is currently manufacturing the tires that are used in TB2's, Akıncı's and Turkish F-16s. theyre working on Kızılelma's and TFX's tires as well.

as for the stuff that cant be made in house, i reckon that's a short, secret list getting smaller each passing day. that we CERTAINLY know.

 

[Heartbang]

I think we need something like this as a naval laser designator.

 

[Ryder]

I watched videos of bees, wasps and hornets.

Now imagine a missile carrying them which not only explodes but sends a deadly swarm of hornet sized drones to the enemies not just disrupts their communications even kills them too.

Now imagine such concept like this.

Hornets, bees and wasps can be deadly. The Mayans used hornet nest throwers against the Spanish conquistadors.
