What's new

Akinci & Aksungur and Turkish Unmanned Fighter Aircraft Program

Caught a design study of twin engined Anka. People claim that it will have 750 kg payload, Satcom, Cats, higher ceiling and longer endurance. Tastes for me like a HALE.

The number of Turkey-made Bayraktar armed and reconnaissance drones in the Turkish security forces has increased to 38 after eight new deliveries.

Four of the newcomers are capable of carrying “smart ammunition.”

The Istanbul-based Baykar has delivered the “TB2” model Bayraktar armed drones to the military, state-run Anadolu Agency reported on Oct. 13.

Four of them can carry the “Smart Micro Munition,” developed by another domestic company, Roketsan.

Some 26 of the Bayraktar TB2s are used by the Turkish Armed Forces, while the police and gendarmerie forces have six drones each.

The number of Bayraktar TB2s in the inventory in armed configuration is 15.

The operational flight duration of the drones reach 30,000 hours and can carry loads up to 100 kilograms.

The Bayraktar drones are widely used in the Turkish army’s counter-terrorism operations.

Some 986 militants inside the country and 867 abroad were “neutralized” in 562 operations backed by drones and manned reconnaissance aircraft in the first nine months of the year. Drones were used in operations by the gendarmerie during which 55 militants were “neutralized,” according to Anadolu Agency.

Turkish authorities use the word “neutralized” to refer to militants who have been either killed, wounded or captured.

Being able to climb to 40.000 feet is very very critical and danger to enemies. As almost all of the medium range air defense systems can climb to 30000 feet. Basically the opposite that should have and was the long range air defense system such as s300, s400 to shoot it down..

Turkey will have huge advantages with that..

Put the jamming pod on it after that send the F35s and watch the show.
 
Can we assume that "satcom" will be standard equipment for Anka 2?

Also, has anyone heard anything new regarding the dedicated military communications satellite project?

Judging by the design of Anka-2, satcom most certainly will be installed as standard.
