Akinci elephant walk

[Zarvan]

I believe this video deserves a separate thread. Check the payload on one of the Akinci.

Imagine KizilElma...

Imagine KizilElma...

That would be revolutionary. Kizilelma could be the next 6th generation jet. Its very fast, has more payload, stealth, AI. If Turkey tests it next year then imagine it by 2035. Good work by Turkey to take the lead in unmanned crafts.

Must say it is a pretty impressive drone.

6 x MAM-L
2 x Bozok
2 x MAM-T
1 x Teber-82
1 x KGK-SİHA-82
1 x SOM


The displayed AKINCI-B weapon load is 1600kg. It will probably exceed 2000kg in later blocks.

 

[nope]

pretty badass I must admit

I highly doubt it, last I checked the combined engine power was a little bit less than reaper.

Even this payload seems overkill to me. I said this before but SOM really has no business being on this plane, reallistically it should carry Çakır

I don't know how much range and altitude is being sacrificed here bu it has to be a lot.

The plane in the very back there lacks the distinctive double exhausts. That one has to be PD170, all the other ones are carrying the ukrainian turboprop engines.

This is the best we're going to get for a long time.

How many do we have ?

AKINCI-A use Motorsich AI-450 turboprop Engines ( 2 x 450hp = 900 hp )

AKINCI-B use Pratt&Whitney PT6 turboprop Engines ( 2 x 750 hp = 1.500 hp )

MQ-9 REAPER use 1 × Honeywell TPE331 turboprop ( 900 hp )



AKINCI-A

AKINCI-B

How many do we have ?

@Zarvan

We haven't received any yet. Later this year we can start receiving first batch. How many we have ordered. I have no clue, but my guess is number will be around 20 to 25.

Bro I deliberately ask this question we have and already completed training.

Our boys have completed the training but sorry I have serious doubt that ours have arrived. Some TB 2 are here but not Akinci.

KizilElma can go in with air to air missiles for air cover and do the SEAD missions

TB2 can take care of the ground defences

and these heavies can seriously lift a heavy load and destroy the harder targets especially with SOM

had SOM been test fired from the AKINCI, if so any videos ?
