Baykar and TAI will deliver x amount of Kızılelma and Anka III this year to TurAF. Airforce will test and experience the UCAVs and provide feedback.

Kizilelma still seems to be in early development, Toygun EOTS and Murad AESA haven't even been integrated, and we haven't even seen internal weapon bay tests

I suspect it will still be developed further but there is no greater feedback then it being actively used and tested by the armed forces. Seems like a fairly normal practive imo. Probably early production models but not indicative of the full production version.

Considering Kizilelma hasn't even had any weapon tests yet or integration of any optical system, what point would it even serve in TuAF?
Anka-3 is in far further development, and TuAF can put it to use in hostile airspaces of Syria and Iraq to test its stealth capabilities.

Why would he even maneuver with the landing gear down?
I mean, shouldn't these maneuvers have happened after all the landing gear testing?
It's a common practice/protocol when conducting maiden flights or first flights with new/untested systems.
