In Turkey: Ukrainian Forces Seriously Strengthened With Acquisition Of Bayraktar TB2 UAV

67

On the Turkish TV channel TRT Haber, an article was released that tells about the increase in requests for the acquisition of Bayraktar unmanned aerial vehicles after their massive use by the Turkish Air Force in the skies of the Syrian province of Idlib. The material also tells that the Ministry of Defense of Ukraine "highly appreciated" the shock operational-tactical Drones Bayraktar TB2.

At the moment, Ukraine is one of two foreign (for Turkey) owners of the mentioned drones.



Amid growing demand, Turkey decided to increase the production of Bayraktar TB2 UAVs. According to some reports, at the beginning of 2020, about 120 units of such drones were produced. For obvious reasons, most are for the needs of the Turkish army.

It is noted that Ukraine at one time acquired six Turkish Bayraktar TB2 drones and conducted flight tests of each of them after they arrived from Turkey.

Turkish TV notes that the Ukrainian army is ready to use Bayraktar TB2 UAVs, "which have confirmed their high performance."

At TRT Haber, with reference to Baykar Makina, an UAV development and manufacturing company, states the following:

The events in Syria, the successful strikes on Assad’s forces demonstrated that Turkish drones are very effective. And the Ukrainian troops seriously strengthened, making the right choice.

            In the Dmitriyevka area (Shakhtersky district), in 2014, one Su-25 produced 7 MANPADS launches, from different angles.
            Here, if you want, if you don’t want, you will land laughing

            And one more fact. The village of Dmitrievka is the place where a brave woman, a fighter pilot, ace - Lydia Litvyak, "White Lily of Stalingrad" was killed in an air battle. She is also buried there.

            Memorial Saur Tomb, before the war.

              Yes, it’s expensive, and if LDNR has air defense equipment, it’s also ruinous.
              Dill spent 156 million dollars on this contract. This includes 6 drones, 200 missiles, two control stations, operator training and maintenance fees. If they "successfully" enter the LDNR, then in a day or two the possibilities of the contract will be exhausted and it is necessary to ask for another 156 million dollars from the mattresses.

          You got alarmed late. The UAVs were transferred to the ex-Ukraine during the period of "mercy with Erdogan."
          The leadership of the Russian Federation was well aware of this.
          A new surge of information noise around these UAVs was raised against the background of "successes" in their use in Syria, and against the backdrop of very, very gloomy prospects for the Armed Forces of Ukraine in the DPR and LPR.

        The Turks successfully used their UAVs over the territory of Syria, whose operators were located in Turkey. That is, they applied in their border zone

      Twenty five again? This issue has already been discussed and commented a million times on the forum.
      Okay, for those banned in the search (or intentionally escalating) again, very briefly:

      Why should Russia use them? The current generation of UAVs is an economic failure in any of its variants. The heavy long-range drones used by the United States require a huge satellite constellation for its operation, respectively its updating, the MCC, command centers, and the gigantic staff arising from this. They can afford it can still, only USA. All other countries using their UAVs also use their satellites, which is military is complete stupidity.

      Lighter UAVs are essentially a cargo cult. They perform all tasks worse and more expensive at times than manned aircraft.

      Russia has relied on the development of the next generation immediately - unmanned aerial vehicles with artificial intelligence that do not require direct operator control during a combat mission. These include the Hunter platform.

      Those samples of the previous generation that are appearing now are designed to close temporary gaps, to make the transition to a new generation of UAVs more gradual. They will not be mass produced. Because it is economic stupidity.


      No matter how primitive they are, but they are applied, and successfully.

      Turkey’s use of UAVs in Syria is not successful, but catastrophic in fact. Therefore quickly ended. With the advent of modern air defense systems at the disposal of Syria, she announced the closure of the sky, and all this PR campaign and nonsense with the "successful Turkish UAVs" quickly curtailed.

      No matter what they say, but so far Russia is in drones as a catch-up. It is not clear why - we make such complex fighters, but they cannot master drones. There is actually a glider, in which we are generally in the lead and filling. Yes, even if they do, it is still catching up. It's time to have time to keep up with the times, we need a new concept of application, we need to introduce new types of weapons faster, change tactics on the battlefield, methods of application, which others do not have - let them catch up. Now they are already talking about the use of a swarm of drones, but not of the "kamikaze" type, but of gaining air supremacy by using different types of drones with the support of aviation and air defense.
