Was thinking maybe BAE/NUROL VTOL, but no..

 

[Fuzuli NL]

Bit big though, no ?

RfP is issued for small VTOL UAV.
It is required to have 2 hours operation, 1 km service ceiling, 15 km range. The size requirement is not disclosed in RfP.

Range is not a lot. To bad they didn't gave us MTOW reference otherwise there are some mini VTOL UAVs that are capable of doing it.

I think the 15km is about the radio control range otherwise even the simplest air vehicle can cover more range in two hours.

Yeah that's what I am saying. Now to be competitive with the world standard at least 30km should be achieved for small size UAV.

SSM should simply purchase airframe's design IPs and build them themselves under STM or similar.
They can have access to many more designs this way and encourage designers to patent their inventions.

This year Ukraine is going to buy more Bayraktar. Amount of drones has been allocated in current year defence budget.

Военные получат 30 тысяч единиц вооружения

В этом году на вооружение украинской армии потратят более 22 миллиардов гривен. В частности, закупят ударные дроны Bayraktar и ракетные комплексы Нептун

Good if true, but dont forget that Morocco is one of the countries joining the Saudi led boycott of Turkish products.

Why is Morocco boycotting us??

 

[Deliorman]

Because they are our Ummah Brothers? Yay...

I saw it on Moroccan News too. Morocco is buying 13 drones.

Under the agreement, Morocco will receive four driving ground stations, a configurable simulation system for driving drones, and a digital system for tracking and storing information. A drone operations center will be set up in Moroccan airbases.

The whole package is worh 70 million dollars. Good money for our economy.

I am only worried about the tech transfer. Is it possible that customers could copy our drones?

 

[Philip the Arab]

So Morocco is now operating Turkish, Chinese, American, and Israeli drones? Damn that has to be a logistical hassle.

 

[Huelague]

Why nobody integrate rotors within the wings ?

 

[Ravenman]

Why nobody integrate rotors within the wings ?

I think it would be more load and less maneuverability.

They can learn a few things but not to the degree that they can make their own but to the degree that they marvel at it.

Wings provide lift, if you put holes inside wings you lose lifting power, wing would be weaker and stationing engine (even a little one) vertically is a though job.. however I saw some designs like that
