The story of a would-be "Bayraktar TB2 killer."
Why did Russia fail to establish serial production of the "Orion" (also known as "Inokhodets") drone—a system that had been unveiled with great fanfare? This article examines several factors—including corruption and other issues—that hindered the development of this UAV, which had been dubbed a "Bayraktar killer." However, the text deliberately omits the primary reason: the Orion was developed—or, more accurately, assembled—using foreign-made components.
In 2021, a factory opened near Moscow, and it was boldly claimed that Russia would flood the global market with these drones, leaving Selçuk Bayraktar with nothing🫢 But just months after production began, Russia launched its war in Ukraine, and Western nations imposed sanctions on the Russian military-industrial complex. The company "Kronstadt" was placed on a sanctions list, cutting off its access to the critical components required for the Orion. This is the root cause of why the "Bayraktar TB2 killer"—the Orion—ultimately failed and, in effect, "perished."
