Nice bird,I wonder how many has the Turkish military ordered so far?And ,is there a plan to accelerate the production ( it’s 1/2 a month now if I remembered correctly)? Really elegant aircraft, they should make a manned version for commercial use

It could be just the paint job but the newly released MIUS image looks a lot different than the previous one. Is it because the LERX isn’t apparent from this angle?

• We increased not only the range but also the destructive power of the ammunition used by the UAVs.
• With HİSAR-A+/O+, we formed a containment envelope up to ~20 km. On the road to SİPER, we will create a containment envelope around 70 and 100 km. Then we will rise above it in SİPER and we are heading towards a system with the S-400 level.
• Our goal is to fill all these air defense levels in 5 years.
• There are huge differences between the early day's Bayraktar TB2 and today's Bayraktar TB2.
• AKINCI will be the same.
• We started the production of some parts in the MMU project.
• Tank engine is working but we are looking beyond classical engines too (Hybrid solution?)
• We had a target drone called Lightning (Simsek). We made it into a cruise missile.
• We used our UAVs (in operations). On the other hand, our opponents got some data on their abilities. If we stop here, we'll be caught. We're working on things like how to use it more effectively.
• "Our projects continue. We have a long way to go. We have to run. We have a lot of work to do, we have to constantly look to the future to do better than we did. Rather than saying we did very well, it is more beneficial to say that we will do better than this."
