Range is not a lot. To bad they didn't gave us MTOW reference otherwise there are some mini VTOL UAVs that are capable of doing it.RfP is issued for small VTOL UAV.DİKEY İNİŞ KALKIŞLI KÜÇÜK İHA PROJESİ TÇD İHALE İLANI - SSB

It is required to have 2 hours operation, 1 km service ceiling, 15 km range. The size requirement is not disclosed in RfP.
I think the 15km is about the radio control range otherwise even the simplest air vehicle can cover more range in two hours.Range is not a lot. To bad they didn't gave us MTOW reference otherwise there are some mini VTOL UAVs that are capable of doing it.
Yeah that's what I am saying. Now to be competitive with the world standard at least 30km should be achieved for small size UAV.I think the 15km is about the radio control range otherwise even the simplest air vehicle can cover more range in two hours.
Good if true, but dont forget that Morocco is one of the countries joining the Saudi led boycott of Turkish products.
I think it would be more load and less maneuverability.Why nobody integrate rotors within the wings ?
They can learn a few things but not to the degree that they can make their own but to the degree that they marvel at it.I saw it on Moroccan News too. Morocco is buying 13 drones.
Under the agreement, Morocco will receive four driving ground stations, a configurable simulation system for driving drones, and a digital system for tracking and storing information. A drone operations center will be set up in Moroccan airbases.
The whole package is worh 70 million dollars. Good money for our economy.
I am only worried about the tech transfer. Is it possible that customers could copy our drones?
Wings provide lift, if you put holes inside wings you lose lifting power, wing would be weaker and stationing engine (even a little one) vertically is a though job.. however I saw some designs like thatWhy nobody integrate rotors within the wings ?
