New Bayrakdar wreckage shows clear use of honeycomb anti radar hull structure.

This was so far only seen in US and Iranian drones.

Bayraktar TB2's new address is Bangladesh​


Turkey's Ambassador to Dhaka Mustafa Osman Turan answered the questions of Bangladesh-based prothomalo. In this context, Turan stated that Baykar recently signed an agreement with the Bangladesh Armed Forces to supply Bayraktar TB2 SİHA to Bangladesh. No explanation was given about the number of deliveries and when they will start.


 
Any chance these may have dual racks on their hardpoints to increase number of missiles they carry ?


drone like TB2 and TB3 are not capable to fire missile, ther will be problems with the wings small drones like that. Look to the Chinese drone and ther missile, ther are several big problems with the wings because of firing missile.

I am sure it will use dual racks for the bombs like this...

 
Aksungur deliveries to the navy continue. TCB883 is the third Aksungur delivered to the Navy.

When Turkish armed forces develop weapons they develop doctrine.

@dBSPL



Baykar want to produce 36 MIUS in 1 year, so that means ther is a lot of countries that want to buy it. Let say 15 for the Turkish armed forces and the rest for strategic partner countries. And 30 TB2 in 1 month.



Production capacity is gradually increasing. Baykar has been making significant infrastructure investments in recent years. The production volume targets in question must also indirectly describe where Baykar sees himself 10 years later. It aims to become one of the leading global companies in unmanned aerial vehicle systems. It is currently the leading company in the tactical class.

For first time in the world, Turkey used Drones as primary element in air strikes

Turkiye’s extensive deployment of Armed Drones in its fight against Syrian Regime Forces in Idlib province has put forward a "new military doctrine" in the world

Bayraktar TB-2 UCAVs are intended to be used as close air support



Operational History

-- Syria
-- Libya
-- Azerbaijan and 2020 Nagorno-Karabakh war
-- Ukraine and 2022 Russian invasion
