1) There's real demand for Turkish drones, it brings in real money which funds more expensive projects like KE and TFX
2) You conveniently forget that you got ruled over by Mongols and Selçuk Türks. Big part of Iran still speaks Turkish
No, we conquer, we **** shit up, even today Turkish army is a very attack oriented army, designed to conquer Greece, Iraq, Syria you name it. I wouldn't compare ourselves to very defensive minded military of Iran.
1) i don't see countries queuing to buy these to be honest, because I think you're confusing initial orders, where there was hype about these drones, with continued future purchases. After their dismall performance in the Ukraine war, dont expect that money to come flowing in. It's Iranian drones which are on everyone's lips for the right reasons, not Turkish target practice ones.
2) every empire has tasted defeat, I never claimed otherwise. Also there is no evidence that Iran had a split military during the seljuk and mongol invasions. When we did have split military it did prove way more effective against the ottomans though (lol), so good you turks stole the idea and even the name. Need I remind you your entire ottoman empire, and pretty much every mongloid empire became Persianate in culture and spoke our language?
3) wrong, you used to conquer things, but got pushed back and now you're a humbled vassal state to bigger western powers. Is that why you got your *** kicked in Norther Syria and wouldn't dare invade or even respond to Greece despite all of their violations against your territory and ships? Being designed to fight Iraq (lol) just doesn't sound the same as countering western aggression and expansionism for 2500 years. Iran has been a thorn in the side of western powers for a long time now, not something you Turks can ever emulate. That would be my reasoning for not comparing our two militaries.
