Actually Selcuk Bayraktar said this second mam-l test with warhead but as you can see in first test there is no explosive.

And when we look at the ground camera there is two objects falling from the sky. Whats that?

Mate those are two massive containers stacked on top each other. That blast is much larger then meets the eye.
 
@Kutsanan; ilk test atışında kullanılan bir test mühimmatı idi, patlayıcı başlık içermiyordu, uçuş karakteristiği gibi kimi noktaları test etmek için kullanılmıştı. İkinci test atışındaki (üstteki görsel) ise patlayıcı başlık içeren gerçek mühimmattı.

İlk test atışındaki nesnenin patlamayışının sebebi bu kadar basittir.

İf you need english, please use google translate.

Your saying Selcuk Bayraktar dont know which missle they use? He said we use warhead in first test too.
 



Xponential 2016: Hornet carriage system equips Bayraktar UAV

Huw Williams, New Orleans - IHS Jane's International Defence Review
09 May 2016
Harris has supplied its Hornet weapons carriage system to Turkey's Baykar Makina for integration on the company's Bayraktar TB2 unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV).

As IHS Jane's previously reported, a Roketsan Smart Micro Munition (SMM) was successfully dropped from the aircraft on 17 December 2015.

The SMM is a laser-guided gliding munition derived from Roketsan's UMTAS (also known as Mizrak) anti-tank guided missile and the Çirit laser-guided rocket. The small unpowered weapon combines the seeker from the Çirit with most of the components of the UMTAS, minus its rocket motor.

Speaking at AUVSI's Xponential 2016 conference and exhibition in New Orleans, Nick Guard, Harris' senior business development manager for suspension and release systems/avionics, told IHS Jane's that discussions were ongoing with other UAV manufacturers in Turkey, including Vestel and Turkish Aerospace Industries (TAI) - manufacturer of the Turkish armed forces' Anka medium-altitude long-endurance UAV.

A bit of info about it down the bottom of this page: http://www.exelisinc.com/solutions/lightweight-weapon-carriage-release-systems/Pages/default.aspx

“WASP & HORNET” ELECTROMAGNETIC GRAVITY RELEASE UNITS
  • Store mass maximum: 50 lbs (on single 100 lbs lug)
  • Rack mass, WASP: 1.7 lbs (0.75 kg)
  • Rack mass, HORNET: 2.0 lbs (0.9 kg)
The challenging demands of sub 50 lbs payload/micro weapons release from small remotely piloted vehicles has lead to the development of these two ultra lightweight ‘micro’ release units.

Within their compact volume, each incorporates an in-flight operable lock, a hook-closed sensor and a crutching system that can accommodate a wide range of store diameters between 3 and 12 inches. Positive separation of the store is assisted by the four spring-loaded sway brace feet.

HORNET has the same features as WASP, but incorporates an internal umbilical, permitting data transfer (MIL-STD-1760 signal subsets) between platform and weapon. Together with optional mechanical/electrical arming functions and weapon “hardback” kit, it effectively provides a complete wing to weapon carriage, release and interface system or “micro pylon” solution.
 
Doesn't seem like something that would be difficult to develop in-house, hopefully we'll see future iterations that are indigenous.. Keep as much of the money going into those systems in Turkey.

Thats what i dont get,is it so hard to develop these carriage units?
