tarik, that is great news!

By the way the cost of one Turkish drone ranges between 1 - 2 million Dollar. One USA, China or Russian drone costs around 15 - 20 million.
That is why Turkish drones are flooding the world. By the way the CEO and founder of these Turkish drones is the son-in-law of President Erdogan
**
from wikipedia

Selçuk Bayraktar, son-in-law of President Erdogan, is a Turkish engineer and businessman. Currently he is the Chief Technology Officer of Turkish high technology company Baykar and the architect of Turkey’s first indigenous and operational UAV Systems. He is also the founding chairman of the T3 Foundation.

The Bayraktar TB2 is a Turkish medium-altitude long-endurance (MALE) unmanned combat aerial vehicle (UCAV) capable of remotely controlled or autonomous flight operations. It is manufactured by the Turkish company Baykar Makina, primarily for the Turkish Armed Forces

Bayraktar means "ensign" or "standard-bearer" in Turkish. The development of the UAV has been largely credited to Selçuk Bayraktar, a former MIT graduate student, and son-in-law of President Erdogan.

tarik, Erodogan testing the latest Turkish drone ,Turkey’s Bayraktar Akinci PT-2 TIHA (unmanned aerial vehicle), in its command and control center!!

This latest drone, the biggest so far Turkey produced, can flay for 25 hours and 46 minutes at 38,000 feet while carrying a payload of 1,360 kilograms over a distance of 7,500 km. To put that into perspective, while an F-16 fighter jet can reach altitudes of 50,000 feet, it performs best between 30,000 to 40,000 feet. With over 875 test flights and sorties, the indigenously manufactured Akinci drone is a high-altitude, long-endurance tactical unmanned aerial vehicle capable of conducting intelligence gathering, surveillance and reconnaissance, as well as armed precision attacks.

This happened this morning today.
