Military personnel of the Armed Forces of Ukraine who were trained in the use and maintenance drones Turkish-made Bayraktar TB2, completed their training in Turkey. A total of 50 people received certificates. This was reported by the press service of the Ministry of Defense of Ukraine.

Fifty military personnel from the Ukrainian Air Force completed training and received appropriate permits to use the Turkish unmanned aerial complex Bayraktar TB2. Such a number of trainees is associated with the formation of spare crews.

This is important in the context of the type institution gaining experience in training specialists for new types of weapons, and will also create the necessary personnel reserve for staffing with already trained servicemen in the future

- said in a statement by the Ukrainian military.

Earlier it was reported that the Turkish company Baykar Makina delivered six Bayraktar TB2 drones to the APU. Also under the contract, in addition to UAVs, three ground control stations and ammunition for drones were delivered.

Bayraktar TB2 - shock medium-range UAV, designed and manufactured by the Turkish company Baykar. Flight altitude - over 7300 m, time spent in the air - up to 24 hours. The distance from the control point is no more than 150 km, it can work in two modes (remote control or automatic mode, including independent takeoff and landing). The maximum speed of the drone is 250 km / h, cruising speed - 130 km / h.

Length drone is 6,5 m, the wingspan is 12 m. The maximum take-off weight of the drone is 650 kg, while the payload is 55 kg. The Bayraktar TB2 is capable of carrying two anti-tank bombs.

[Nycomed]

I agree that in Israel and UAVs and the corresponding training will be an order of magnitude higher.

[genisis]

Yes, and the political establishment of Israel is an order of magnitude higher in intelligence and pragmatism. Therefore, Israel is friends with Turkey and completely calm about Ukraine.
Yes, but once the Zaporozhye Cossacks wrote completely different letters to the Turkish Sultan.

Wouldn't it be expensive for 2-3 drone controllers to blame Iskander?

[Same lech]

Wouldn't it be too expensive for 2-3 people to operate the drone to kill Iskander?

Expensive of course ... but it seems cheaper to fill up 1-2 x operators than a couple of dozen controlled drones.
Over at the Khmeimim base attacking drones infinitely shoot down and the end and edge are not visible to this ... maybe it’s better to cover the operators of these drones.

I speak of him as a scout. Not combat. How will you drive the Iskander to the battlefield?

[Prisoner]

The S-300 and Iskander must be earned. Not for these bugs a club. And so wedge wedge need to knock out the UAV on the UAV. Let the guys play.

[Oquzyurd]

Very advanced drones with a sufficiently large flight ceiling for their class, with a camera of decent quality surveillance, and on board has 2 high-precision rockets. Watch how they conduct reconnaissance in a group, wait, find out the place of the cluster, and attack. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7i5SCgqBGT0

[Errr]

Is the video showing the work of the Roketsan MAM-L?

[Oquzyurd]

No, in the video, the Bayraktar TB2 drone monitors the terrorists and transfers information to the F-16 and strike in this case with the F-16 (in Syria) .................... .................................................. ......................... In another case, the terrorists get 2 hits. The first strike is delivered by F-16 for the target designation of the drone, then the same drone is secondary to inflict MAM-L missile strike (in Iraq) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gQRNI6NDmAQ

[Ratmir_Ryazan]

55 kg payload ... it will not be enough ... two anti-tank bombs, judging by the article, but what about the missile dumb or something.

55 kg is almost like a shell from a 152-mm howitzer, but at the same time a highly accurate capable of hitting a single tank or an AP from above 7 km in height.

This is your little? Seriously?

In addition, the ammunition of this UAV is simple and cheap, which means they can be made / bought a LOT.

The danger of this UAV is that the Donbass army has practically nothing to get it and this is a serious problem.

Russia generally has no UAVs, but Ukraine already has them and tomorrow they will use them in the Donbass.

More time will pass from "being tested" to "adopted", and Ukraine already has drone UAVs. And tomorrow they will bomb Donbass with them, practically with impunity.

Of course. But it is better than nothing.

Do you think that what doesn’t appear there will bring down something similar in Syria?

These 55 kg are distributed in 4th ammunition. In the photo below, the Bayraktar TB2 in "standard" equipment, consisting of 2 x 22 kg Roketsan MAM-L and 2 x 8,5 kg Roketsan MAM-C. In total, therefore, not even 55, but all 61 kilograms of combat load.

I am not inclined to believe that all this music is cheap, but I agree completely and completely that it is all very serious.

[Oquzyurd]

Starting next year, the Turks will have a much more powerful Akinci combat drone weighing 5 tons and a payload of 1350 kg. It will be equipped with missiles and bombs carried by the F-16. In addition, it will also have a winged rocket from the SOM family. SOM was originally prepared for the F-35.

huge and slow, air defense will have no problems with it, load 50kg. this is a scout, it is unlikely that Ukrainians bought laser-guided mini-bombs for him

[Ratmir_Ryazan]

It is not huge, but of such a size that it can fly for a long time and pick up two high-precision bombs, each of which can hit a tank / infantry fighting vehicle / armored personnel carrier / truck with people.

This UAV flies at an altitude of more than 7000 km, that is, the Donbass army cannot get them out of MANPADS, but these UAVs can hit two targets in one take-off.

[_Ugene_]

He is not huge

Well, yes, wingspan - 12 m, baby

that is, the army of Donbass to get them out of MANPADS is impossible

and who wrote about MANPADS?

According to information from various sources, during the armed confrontation in the Donbass, Ukraine lost 10-12 helicopters and 13-20 of its combat and transport military aircraft. Now in the air defense of Novorossia there are such advanced systems as "Shell-C1", "Tor-M1".

[Antares]

however, have long been seen in the video. But they deny everything, Ichtamnet, video fake, etc.

[Ratmir_Ryazan]

also found in the "mines". Especially the Carapace, in every mine ...
however, have long been seen in the video. But they deny everything, Ichtamnet, video fake, etc.

There is a video on the network from Bellingcat on which the BUK, due to an installation error, travels rockets forward (that is, back to front) for a rather long time - all this from a film that allegedly proved that the BUK traveled from the Russian Federation to Donbass. This video was referenced even by the European Commission, which investigated the circumstances of the destruction of the Boeing over the Donbass as evidence.

But in the end, all this turned out to be a banal installation. The fake of this video was dismantled at a briefing by the Ministry of Defense, which shot down a Boeing about the origin of the rocket.

Well, a little logic - if there would be TORs and Armor in the Donbass, then there was no reason for Ukraine to buy Bayraktar TB2 UAVs, since these complexes allow reaching targets up to jet aircraft, not to mention slow-moving UAVs at altitudes of 10-15 km !!!

A UAV Bayraktar TB2 has a maximum flight altitude of just over 7 km.

[Ratmir_Ryazan]

and who wrote about MANPADS?

They wrote -

air defense will have no problems with it

There are specific republics where these UAVs will soon be used and the air defense of these republics has problems.

According to information from various sources, during the armed confrontation in the Donbass, Ukraine lost 10-12 helicopters and 13-20 of its combat and transport military aircraft. Now in the air defense of Novorossia there are such advanced systems as "Shell-C1", "Tor-M1".

All that was shot down in the Donbass was shot down from MANPADS and Strela-10.

The Donbass army did not have any Shells and Thors.

All that is MANPADS and Strela-10 their maximum is 3,5 km.

"Both ours and yours" Erdogan, another cunning Turk. He expects to hug Putin, to nod. And then in Syria hit Assad and the Russian Federation in the back. So it is in the Crimea and UAVs - they play along with Ukraine. Especially with the supply of drones. After all, these are not helmets, bulletproof vests that are given from NATO. This is a strike weapon!

He buys gas and S-400 systems for us, but for himself, and he does everything else for himself and in the interests of Turkey, and not Russia at all.
