Bayraktar TB2 is wikipedia page is being brigaded. They are trying to only have bad news about TB-2

Read over the edit history, they are deleting stuff even when its from non Turkish news sources

"
The Bayraktar TB2 is a Turkish medium altitude long endurance (MALE) unmanned combat aerial vehicle (UCAV) capable of remotely controlled or autonomous flight operations. It is manufactured by Turkey′s Baykar company primarily for the Turkish Air Force (TAF).[2] The aircraft is monitored and controlled by an aircrew in the Ground Control Station, including weapons employment. Bayraktar means "ensign" or "standard-bearer" in Turkish. The development of the UAV has been largely credited to Seljuk Bayraktar, a former MIT student.[3][4] The aircraft relies on imported and regulated components and technologies, such as the engines (manufactured by Rotax in Austria), missile rack (UK) and optoelectronics (FLIR sensors imported from Wescam in Canada or Hensoldt from Germany), some of which have been targeted by sanctions in response to Turkey's belligerence abroad.[5]

Armenians, Greeks etc. are coping by claiming TB-2 depends on western parts

They also completely forget software side of things

Probably the GPS, yes there is but it is way more expensive anti-jam GNSS ,cheap-commercial parts are what make Bayraktar affordable and disposable.
Also commercial GPS is prone to be jammed.
Garmin should realize they have a decent market in Turkey and they shouldn't hop onto statements made by lobbying power. Instead of telling "innocent civilians" for PR, they can straightly say these parts are not licensed to be used by military. How do they plan to control part flow when they have dozens of distributors in Turkey?

Honestly if wasnt for you guys I would be dumb as rocks when it comes to defence especially when it comes Turkiye's domestic industry.

Keep the content going cant wait for the Akinci to fly.

From horses to flying the sky blue. Quite the evolution. The Drone continues the akinci tradition of Turkic warriors.
