Well, I got access to the article. I'll add a summary below:

- Baykar currently has 4500 employees with an average age of 29 years.

- Last year they invested $250 million in R&D, with the most going to AI R&D.

- Baykar allocated $1 billion for the development of Kizilelma.

- They plan to invest at least $1.5 billion in the next 5 years.

- Production rate of TB2 is 250 per year.

- Start of mass production of TB3 in this year with at least 20 build. Increase to at least 50 build next year.

- They build 12 Akinci last year and this year they plan to build 50.

- Plan to produce at least 12 Kizilelma this year, increase it exponentially (24?) in '25 and produce 48 in '26.

- They really want to produce engines on their own. The share of the TB2 engine was not even 1 % of the total added value so it wasn't necessary. They now developed the BM100 for the TB2. TB2 flies currently 250.000 hours a year which necessitates a need for 200 spare engines per year. They plan to build 20 of these engines this year. After that they'll start mass production.

- They want to produce the engines for the Akinci and Kizilelma in 2 years and 4 years respectively in Turkiye. They started investing in this since last year. In total they plan to invest $300 million for engines in 5 years (of which 1 year has passed).

- They'll continue specializing and investing in drones, satellites and AI.

Yeah, right? Someone must have tipped "journalists". I don't think they would be able to find it themselves even after 2 weeks. All they do is listen to their masters and make news on whatever they ask.

The thing with news historically is they make their money by selling ads. So find out who their ad buying customers are, and you will find out who are their paymasters.

I'm sorry but who are you to ask another member to delete the post? If you have problem with the post (which I don't understand why, it is clearly related to Turkey's defense sector) report it to the admin. Oh wait, is it because that you cannot get any post deleted here by admins unlike SPF?
