Teber82, if not carried in the inside weapon bays, the KE can not be used effectively against say South Cypriot positions. Those Teber82s on the outer pylons will allow the plane to be seen by AD radars and Barak8 missiles will bring it down.
KE is essentially a stealthy UCAV. If it carries bombs under its belly in the open, its stealth will greatly be compromised and can fall prey to modern AD systems.

These flight tests are probably needed to be performed. But in real life what separates KE and Anka-3 from other UCAVs is their stealthy designs. To take advantage of that we need to make sure that they carry most of the munitions inside their inner weapon bays.

Kızılelma will be most useful when all of its features like stealth, speed, agility and loadout capacity are put into play at the same time. However it does not always need all of its strengths be put into play. When you can take out enemy air defenses with stand off munitions Kızılelma can enter the stage with its full load.

In cases where Kızılelma has to attack as the only type several Kızılelma can enter the stage together adding their IWB loadout up to an effective level. This is in case one Kızılelma is not enough for the specific target.

You can also make the munitions smaller or the plane bigger when you have the matching engines to go along.

And I just cant see how on earth will LM and Boeing keep their silence when they can force the US govt to buy their expensive drones by crushing Baykar one way or the other

Baykar will be TikTok 2.0; the deep state/zionists owning LM and Boeing will find excuses such as money going to Turkey/Turkish govt/Radical Ottomans etc... to convince the US into forcing Baykar into selling its US factories to US businessmen.

In other words, such a venture by Baykar will eventually turn out to be ugly and Baykar should honestly refrain from such an endeavour
Hallall brother! I agree with you 100%...
