Selcuk Bayraktar: TB-2 is a much more cost-effective system, which is why mostly these systems are used. For example, Aksungur is a more qualified system than TB-2. Likewise, Akinci is a much more advanced system. Around 150 TB-2s are in use by the Turkish Armed Forces. 12 Akinci have been delivered, but the total number will be much smaller compared to the TB-2. Also there is a large number of Anka.

(...)

Fergani Sky's goal is to develop a global positioning system with low-orbit constellation satellites and inter-orbital transfer systems(new gen space tugs).
(...)
Within 2 years, it is aimed to start satellite launch activities.

Satellite in question seem to be dual use communication and positioning satellites. I think they will need atomic clocks for that. Tübitak are making some.

He also said that they might send tens or hundreds of satellites to orbit. He's taking the Starlink route. This approach requires them to streamline the production of satellite significantly and build them at scale for feasibility. I hope they promote the company(Fergani) more and recruit many engineers.

Without that satellites Kızılelma and projects like that for us or any country without it is a dream due to bandwidth limits and latency problems. That's why he's planning it. In addition to that we need it also for the worst scenarios too. Do expect to use GPS of the US in a possible war between TR GR? LoL of course not. Without Fergani's aim our job would be 10x harder against against countries like GR even with our new techs for that purpose. To sum up that's a critical project and we need to show our full support for it.

Will Anka 3 have short range take off capability ?
For its MTOW of 7 tons it can have carrier operation capability as it is not a heavy plane. I think our planes should also be suitable for operation from highways and land based short strips.
