Notice the winglets, each plane has slightly different winglets. The front-most has the short and steep and the farthest has the flat and long.

A total of 6 #ANKA and 6 #TB2, are used for 24/7 reconnaissance and surveillance missions at all sea borders from the Eastern #Mediterranean to the North Aegean.

What is the source of this statement, especially pertaining that they are 24/7 in the air? Because according to my calculations, there are indeed on average multiple (6+) TB2's in the air in the world at any time looking at the flight hours logged so far. Something which I found hard to believe at first but now less so.

In which quarter of this year can we expect TAI to display göksungur?

You can actually see them in action on FlightRadar. They mostly operate in the Aegean or the South Eastern borders. I sometimes see 4-5 in the air at the same time. Sometimes they turn off their transponders and then appear somewhere else. But yeah, they are actually operating 24/7.

I guess not. Bozok had small wings in the latest design.

Turkish hunter-killer unmanned aircraft passes 300,000 flight hours milestone​

Turkish game-changing unmanned combat system, called the Bayraktar TB2, has reached a major milestone and finished 300,000 hours of operational flight hours.
The Bayraktar TB2 unmanned combat armed vehicle (UCAV) becoming the first locally developed aerial vehicle to achieve such an extensive flight time in the nation’s aviation history, the developer firm Baykar announced Monday.
Baykar’s chief technology officer (CTO) Selçuk Bayraktar shared a Twitter statement on the development, listing the missions that the Bayraktar TB2 has been a part of or will be a part of, including Turkey’s cross-border counterterrorism operations in Syria that targeted PKK and Daesh terrorists, retaliatory operations against regime attacks, namely Operation Euphrates Shield, Operation Olive Branch and Operation Spring Shield; Operation Claw that targeted terrorists in Iraq, along with the Eastern Mediterranean missions and internal security operations as well as the humanitarian aid missions.

Ismail Demir, the head of the Defense Industries Presidency (SSB), shared a statement via Twitter that read: “Our Bayraktar TB2 UCAVs, the supporter of the security forces in the skies, left behind 300,000 hours of flight freely in our skies. This pride is all of us.”
The drone initially entered the inventory of the Turkish Armed Forces (TSK) in 2014 as an unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) and then integrated with the ammunition, becoming a UCAV. It is currently used operationally by the TSK, Gendarmerie General Command, General Directorate of the Security and the National Intelligence Organization (MIT).

As noted by the company, Bayraktar TB2 UCAVs are produced with a record-breaking 93% of the parts manufactured indigenously. A total of 160 drones are in the inventories of four countries currently, which are Turkey, Ukraine, Azerbaijan and Qatar.
Baykar, which, since the early 2000s, has been domestically developing software and hardware systems which are some of the top value-added systems in the field of unmanned vehicles is among the leaders in its field worldwide, with engineers in 13 different disciplines.
The Bayraktar TB2, which continued to be operated in the field, became a game-changer, as dubbed by several international experts as well, in time. Defense experts point out that Turkey’s success in counterterrorism operations in a shorter-than-expected time and with fewer casualties is because of such drones. The drones had a particular role during Operation Olive Branch conducted in neighboring Syria’s Afrin against the PKK and Daesh terrorists, conducting flights that surpassed some 90% of all its flights put together. It flew a total of 5,300 hours during the operation. It was also taking part in operations that targeted PKK terrorists’ so-called leaders who are wanted with a Red Notice.

The UCAVs which contributed to the success of the TSK by increasing their reconnaissance and surveillance capabilities in Operation Peace Spring, also successfully destroyed many targets during the operation. Finally, for the first time in Operation Spring Shield, it destroyed many armored vehicles from howitzers to Multiple Rocket Launchers (MRL) and Russian-made air defense systems.
During that operation, the drones were used as the primary element on the battlefield, raising worldwide interest.
Moreover, they escorted Turkey’s Fatih and Yavuz drilling ships during their missions in the Eastern Mediterranean in areas that fall under the country’s continental shelf. They were also deployed in the Turkish Republic of Northern Cyprus (TRNC) for the same mission, flying there from Turkey’s southern coasts.
Bayraktar TB2 can carry four domestic smart ammunition MAM-L and MAM-C missiles produced by Roketsan on its wings. Its built-in laser target marker allows it to hit its target with precision. Turkey is among the six countries that can produce its drones and smart ammunition using domestic resources.

Yes, soon to be revealed.

Yeah, I'm sure they've already worked on the delivery systems. I think someone mentioned that a "Harop like" loitering munition was in the process of being built and mass produced - but nothing has been revealed to the public yet.

I think NATO is growing ever more to be a joke of an organisation - Hope Turkey Nukes up soon, so we can leave NARUTO and form our own Turkic-Asian-African Pact

NATO vysoce ocenilo ruské protiletadlové komplexy Pancir

Ruské protiletadlové raketové a kanónové komplexy Pancir-S jsou ideálními prostředky boje proti vojenským bezpilotním letounům, NATO musí prioritně odstraňovat podobné hrozby před zahájením svých operací.

Can not deny the report

Pollyanna mode on
Those are the best to combat UAVs by being targets and decoys and withdrawing attention from other critical assets
Pollyanna mode off.

It is too hard for them to accept success of a NATO member's UAVs, i can bet the committee was full of anti-Turkish "experts".

Been telling for years that we are better of outside of NATO. Let the Russians annex parts of scandinavia and the batlics while we remain neutral.
