Turkey's feared ANKA strike drones

From wikiPedia, Looks like the drone is completely operational mostly within Syrian territory. But not a good experience btw, Syrian air defence forces have countered it well.
LOL. The "Syrian Air Defence" got massacred by Turkish drones. In fact, Turkey mocked them by simply showing drone footage of Syrian Air Defence and not destroying them.

You have no clue, please go through comments on the thread and then reply me. It's a completely complicated case. People are suggesting it was EW capability of the Koral, maybe. But I am on my own words, it was done by TB-2 due to its low rcs, it could hit Pantsir without being exposed to Pantsir aesa radar. ANKA was countered by Syrian air defense forces, it possibly could hit some tanks or ground vehicles from above but ground reality and field reports are suggesting that it couldn't approach air defense systems in order to neutralize them. All in all, the professionals of Turkish army are the only ones knowing the truth, we are merely judging by evidence that is provided on social platforms.

Dude, no aircraft with a propeller or a rotor can ever be stealth. Except some micro UAVs.

The radar echo backscattered from a propeller is expected to strongly depend on the polarization of the incident wave. Thus, the rotation of the propeller causes a significant fluctuation of the propeller’s RCS provided that the excitation frequency is close to the resonant frequency.

I don't understand why you are insisting in this false belief.

Where is your source, i have heard no such thing.

He is delusional. Let him live in his fantasy world.
 
Can you show it to me? I watched almost every video that has been posted in this section, and saw nothing like that.
Ahah sorry it was about ANKA. Not from youtube videos, it was in the source that I posted in my first post. ANKA UAVs were downed, that's what I know. If the radar could find it then it says that ANKA was exposed to Syrian radars.

Only 1 Anka was shot down over Syria. The other was a crash (accident) as the wreckage did not have any signs of damage caused by an external source.

Stop this nonsense.

You say that it was shot down. I agree, it still shows that ANKA was detected.

@-SINAN- from YouTube videos you can see that the drone fearlessly approaches the Pantsir AD. So it was difficult to detect, I didn't say it's a stealth drones. In no way it could be but had a low RCS hence approaching Pantsir easily.
 
@-SINAN-
I maybe wrong in my conclusion. As i said only the professionals are aware of it. TB-2s were also downed by Syrian airdefense forces too. But from video clips posted on the Youtube, the drone could approach the Pantsir unit without any difficulty or fear of being detected.

We don't know which strike done by which drone, there is no indication for that. But both ANKA-S and TB-2 are capable of doing this mission.
 
Operational history
The Anka performed its first mission flight on 5 February 2016 in Turkey's eastern province of Elazig performing a four-hour exploration and observation flight.[35]

In the course of Turkey′s Operation Olive Branch in 2018, the UAV for the first time used the Smart Micro Munition, MAM-L.[36]

Multiple Anka-S drones along with the advanced Bayraktar TB2 drones were deployed and extensively used during the Operation Spring Shield launched by Turkey following the heavy losses the Turkish forces incurred at the hands of the Russian-backed Syrian government in northwestern Syria at the end February 2020.[36] The deployment was assessed by experts to be a tactical game-changer.[36][37][38]

On 25 February Syrian Air defenses shot down an Anka-S.[39][40]

On 1 March 2020, an Anka-S was shot down while operating in the Syrian province of Idlib by an air defence system, near the town of Saraqib.[41][42]

Because Iranian drones are invisible to air defenses.
