I was a little sceptical at first even when Defence Minister Canikli stating for Akinci to roll out and fly in 2019 but it seems that is the case here. We can conclude that TAI has gained sufficient knowledge and expertise in developing a UAV from scratch from the ANKA project. There were delays one after and another in ANKA but it eventually got there and the project matured and sufficient deliveries have been made today. It appears AKINCA on the other hand is a different ball game because the foundation is already there, all the electronic wizardry has already been developed with ANKA project, just moving up a scale in size in this case.

Any chance you could share the 3D model for the AKINCI? I'm planning on making a comparison with various other aircraft and really don't want to model it without proper resolution blueprints etc.

Is Baykar getting the assistance or tech from TAI? This AKINCI projet belongs to Baykar

Congrats Turkey.
Now that you guys seems to run fast in Projects... Can you jump in the "Turbofan" Drone category...

I stand corrected, my bad.. I thought it was TAI.

Nonetheless, I assume there would be assistance from either companies considering they're both striving for the same goal.

Turkey only waits for the development of Turbofan engine... other than that, Turkey is able to produce every componenet of it..
It was mentioned that Turkish turbofan engines UAV will fly in 2025.. with AESA radar and AtA missiles, every country would love to have it... huge export potential is there...

Guys, just recently, it was mentioned that it will have 2x550 hp engine instead of 2x900hp
