Is it a wise choice for Eurodrone consortium members to get both Eurodrone and Akıncı ?

It is a wise choice for them to abandon eurodone, perhaps

Eurodrone project is in the freezer and I don't think even with the new barrage of funding they will be able to get it going again. Smart countries like Spain, Italy and hopefully Britain will start moving towards more collaboration with Turkey as we are right now the most dynamic country in the entire continent. They can get a lot of bang for their buck and we can get some good money and relations.
I'm waiting to see how our decision makers will F this one up.

”There is actually a very important message in the first sentence, emphasizing "4 months"...”
ORKO sure is cryptic sometimes.
What does he mean by that?

wasn't nurol makina even a runner up in the UK land vehicle tender for like 3 tausend vehicles i mean they even built a plant in the Uk. Also germany and france are unlikely to abandon eurodrone even if buying italian akincis would make more sense and perhaps akinci XL.
Maybe it means piaggio acquisition was planned when they decided to open a jv or that leonardo helped that happen on some way?
Akinci and Eurodrone are not directly competing with each other. For ex, Eurodrone is twice as heavier than Akinci and carrying 2.3 ton payload. Naturally much more expensive. Besides ED is not ready.
Btw, actions of management team of Baykar is almost perfect to be honest.
It is not something we see that everyday in our country
