Turkey set to become largest operator of UCAV in Europe, Asia and Middle East

No Israel doesn't operates more UAV's than Turkey or Iran.
Will it? I know they need UCAVs for Gaza and the West bank. This is controversial but I'm going to say that Israel has better technology that Turkey relating to UAVs but please respond in a logical, and not ranting way.

Israel what?
My question is does Israel operate more UCAVs than Turkey or will they operate more UCAVs that Turkey in the future. It would sure help with airstrikes compared to say having the get airplanes airborne.

I answered it.
Iran and Turkey are operating more UCAV's than Israel.

Which technology are Israelis UAV's offering that Turkish ones not have?
 
Turkey will certainly dominate drone market with way superior and advanced technologies compared to cheaper alternatives.

Awesome payload capacity. Its huge, makes me jealous

Its similar to Iranian Fotros-drone, but Turkey has has a few of investors and colleagues in this field. Thats why her progress has amazing speed. Indonesia willingly cooperates with Turkish companies, nice work.
 
I don't know if posted already...

"Ukraine has received the unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) purchased from Turkey, Ukrainian president announced on Thursday.

With development of national quantum well infrared photo detector technology on electro-optic payloads, Turkey has succesfully introduced 3rd generation flirs called CATS which is half the weight of 2rd generation equivalents. Furthermore, Turkish institutes have revealed a couple of national drone engine which is way powerful and effective than foreign equivalents at high altitudes. Those were turbo-diesel aviation engines. In paralel to diesel engines, It is expected to be revealed a turbo-prop drone engine for Akinci drone which is going to have a thrust around 550hp. Turkish engine institute(TEI) has carried out magnificent R&D activities to develop and produce most critical sections of a gas turbine engines with latest generation manufacturing processes and We are going to collect the fruits of those achievements with many gas turbine engine projects to be integrated for different platforms. National engine and Optic system and many other sub-system projects help us easing difficulties to actualize our own aerial craft concepts which will be upper hand on many points compared to equivalents.With this way, We will try to make Akinci drone fly with 1,4t payload in trials. This will enable Akinci to fire a couple of Air to Ground/Air missiles including SOM cruise missile as well. Firing a big cruise missile from a drone will be the first of its class I think.

How many of those are in the inventory of Turkey’s armed security forces? And what is the feedback from the operators, are they satisfied with their work?

Unknown number leased by Turkish Armed Forces.
