I just wonder why Ukraine does not buy Aksungur instead of TB2. It May be a little more expensive but much more sophisticated...

I think the Aksungur probably doesn't have any export variants yet, and the time needed to produce it would be too much for the Ukrainians. They buy the Bayraktar because they are experienced in using the system and can buy it from existing stocks.

Because
1. They are a lot more expensive
2. Ukraine doesn't need its advanced features
3. They will be downed easily by ruski air defence due to the size.

TB2 is the perfect platform for Ukraine - small, cheap, can take of from short roads, and you can afford losing a dozen of them.

A coup in Russia come closer with every single day of the war in Ukraine.

Just imagine the unprecedented torrent of russian Intelligence now pouring in to western agencies.

Putin knows that half his elite and military establishment, Horrified by his Recklessness and Dreading its Consequences, are Singing like Canaries.

Only he can NOT tell which half.
