Azerbaijan is one of the countries investing most heavily in UAV systems in the world. With the shifting of production functions to the domestic industry, Azerbaijan can begin to multiply its strategic power in this field in a short period of time.

Baykar Makina was founded in 1986 by Özdemir Bayraktar to serve the industry in the manufacture of precision motor components and gearboxes subject to localization. In the 2000s, the company began to focus on unmanned aviation, which was still a very new field at the time, and to allocate resources to it. Today, we can say that the company has become an aerospace company in its entirety. The company name is a shortened version of Bayraktar Kardeşler. BAYraktar (surname) and KARdeşler (brothers). So in English, Bayraktar Brothers.
