First Turkish national armed unmanned aerial vehicle??

Yeah wasn’t Anka the first ?

No it wasn't.

Yes, it was.

Why does it matter so much?

 

[Zafer]

Because I care about the truth being told. I remember the first time I heard the news of bombs getting succesfully dropped from our planes. It was a historical moment, it was the sign that we will win against terror, it was a big relief. TAI under foreign influence wouldn't give this power to the Erdoğan government. It had to be Baykar . But the bombs were heavy and the plane could carry little. Then bombs got smaller and the plane could carry heavier. Victory was ours.

Mart 2017’de Jandarma Genel Komutanlığı himayesinde görev uçuşlarına başlayan Blok-B sistemi takip etti. Aynı yılın Nisan ayında ANKA Blok-B sistemi üzerine Roketsan MAM-L güdümlü bombaların entegrasyonu da yapılarak, silahlı görev kabiliyeti kazanıldırıldı.

April 2017 is when Anka received its armed mission capable title.

17 Aralık 2015'te iki adet Roketsan MAM-L güdümlü füzesi yüklü şekilde yapılan atış testinde %100 isabet ile hedefleri vurabilmiştir.

Bayraktar TB2 did its first armed mission on December 17 2015.

Case closed.

Geliştirme testleri tamamlanan ANKA Blok-A sisteminin kabulleri Şubat 2013’te başarıyla gerçekleştirildi. 2013 yılı Mayıs ayında ANKA Blok-A sistemi üzerinden yerli ASELFLIR -300T kamerası ile, Roketsan tarafından üretilen cirit füzesinin atışları yapılarak ülkemizde ilk kez silahlı İHA sisteminin gösterimi gerçekleşti ve Ekim 2013 ayında da bu sistemin kabulleri yapıldı

In May 2013, an armed UAV system was demonstrated for the first time in Turkey by firing the Cirit missile produced by Roketsan with the domestic ASELFLIR -300T camera over the ANKA Block-A system, and the acceptance of this system was made in October 2013.

How many Cirits were fired on terrorists if ever before Baykar dropped bombs on terrorists.

It is not relevant it is another topic or a milestone.

You can create another milestone like the first national armed UAV that is utilized in a military campaign.

You can create another milestone like the first national armed UAV that is utilized in a military campaign.

That milestone when you can hit the enemy is the only milestone that actually matters.

 

[what]

Unnecessary discussion that we already had a dozen times. But feel free to continue.
However, I will not tolerate any baseless conspiracy accusation of foreign interference at TAI.

@Zafer

That’s what I remember, too.

Are we talking about numbers or which UAV was armed firstly?

Which UAV made a difference by effectively killing enemies is what matters. Experimental firings without operationsal achievements is useles. TB2 has been the sharp sword of the Turkish military by killing enemies. Cirit is not even being used on UAVs. MAM-L and MAM-C made history.

 

[MADDOG]

Supply chains are critical...

"Due to supply problems, we had to make many parts of ANKA-3 in the workshop. We also had problems with these parts that we made ourselves. There was an asymmetry issue with the brakes, which we solved. If we fly it in June, we will fly it within 17 months after the start of the project."

This was NEVER the issue. They claimed, Baykar TB2 was the first Turkish armed UAV. Is that right or is that wrong?
Btw, I would not bet, that Cirit was never used on a battleground.
