Anka-3 , although not clearly defined in detail by TAI, by all intents and purposes seems to be an air to ground attack deep strike stealthy bomber drone.
It has a top air intake akin to B21 type stealth bombers. Currently it is most likely using an engine of Ukrainian origin. When TF6000 is ready it should be the engine that this plane will use.
TF-6000 should be able to power this drone to achieve decent subsonic speeds.
What TEI has to do now is to match Tusas’s performance and and start churning out engines one after the other for all the different platforms TAI is producing. We can’t depend on engines that US will sell to us. Besides in order to make good use of these beautiful planes, we need engines that are purpose built for them. Not some ”cheap” alternatives that will save the day.
