This is rather interesting: according to a Ukranian TB2 operator, they see a TB2 being shot by a Russian S300 AD system. They are dismayed over losing the TB2. But the plane makes an automatic landing back to it’s designated airport 2 hours later with loads of holes on the airframe. They mend the TB2 and re use it successfully.
This is not the only time apparently; Another TB2 returned back home 2 hours after it was shot by a Russian fighter’s a2a missile.
Somehow it is as if these planes seem to have a self EW capability against missiles that are targeting them.

I agree, S-300 missiles should have exploded very far away from the TB-2 to not damage it enough, EW pod makes sense

Personally I’ve never seen a TB2 with both MAM-L’s and an EW pod.

I agree with this too

i believe EW pod is baked in.

internal EW, does the TB-2 have enough energy for that?

Maybe we can see TB3 tomorrow.

Makes sense, maybe TB-3+Kızılelma.


Oh I fucking want that

It should only be powerful enough to jam the RF seeker of the missile in a very short distance. Therefore, can be possible! But TB2 should be able to be aware of the incoming missile.

Maybe we can see TB3 tomorrow.

What makes you say that?

Eid gift from Baykar hopefully.

That's like 1500kgs of payload, holly fuck

But I am still waiting Kızılelma/TB-3

Do I understand it correctly? These are 7 new serial produced Akincis, bringing the total number up to 13?

S9 was in the video. So we know that at least 9 has been serially produced

IMO, no. Only one Akıncı is new. (6+1)

 

[Agha Sher]

IMO, no. Only one Akıncı is new. (6+1)

that is not right either. Akinci S9 was seen in the video, suggesting at least 9 operating Akincis

 

[TheInsider]

7 Akıncıs (6x Akıncı-B+1x Akıncı-A)

8xMAM-L class smart munitions (6xMAM-L+2xBozok in the picture)
2xMAM-T smart munitions
2xMk 82 class PGM (1xTeber 82+1xKGK SIHA 82)
1xSOM class cruise missile(Probably SOM-A or B)

Exactly, some people say that it is a SOM-J but the SOM-J has the intakes to the side.

Thanks for the detailed post

 

[Siper>MMU]

Akıncı will launch SOM-J with a rocket booster, SOM A/B/C wont be integrated most likely.
