Turkish drones are also rumoured to be destroying the RSF in Sudan.

For now but it seems that Somalian army was not ready, al shabaab is almost in capital Mogadishu. They better hurry...

What are these ? View attachment 74163

perhaps intelligence gathering equipment for SIGINT/ELINT.

UAV-122 is such a great option to have for our drones, 50 km range is great as well. Anka should be able to carry 4 of this I think.

it needs laser illumination for terminal guidance though. aselflir 500 can point the target from 35km at maximum. we need cheap, smaller UAVs with laser designator to not risk losing tactical drones like TB2.

Not necessarily, it can also attack at coordinates if it is like UAV-230. Laser would come into play, imo, if we are attacking at something moving.

How about using Kemankeş, or a similar munition with a laser illuminator ? A parachuted TR-122 is a ballistic missile with a different payload, and this completely redefines its mission. Similarly, why not send ten Kemankeş to the front lines and launch laser-guided missiles continuously whenever a Kemankeş acquires a target ? Those can stay airborne for an hour. This both reduces the risk of losing a TB-2 and helps to lock onto more than one target at a time without filling the sky with large UAV's.

kemankeş has laser rangefinder, not a laser illuminator. I was thinking of a hovering platform, much like Kalkan VTOL.

I meant a Kemankeş with a laser illuminator added to its design. A hovering platform is good for keeping the illumination stable, but I chose a missile because they are harder to intercept rather than VTOL UAV's.
