      Bayraktar TB-2 can be considered an analogue of Searcher II (Outpost), with the advent of the shock version they became even closer.

      Surely it will be profitable to drive these devices for reconnaissance ... you do not risk people and are always aware of events.
      And if a couple of gifts to enemies always hang under the wings, then in general it is beauty.

      Nonsense, even Orlan “doesn’t fit a candle, let alone“ Altius ”I’ll keep quiet, heaven and earth! So you need to massively build in the shock version!

      And what kind of "two missiles"? Whirlwind, Attack? Still, it is an important fact, what kind of missiles it carries.

    He is not a dive in a dive
    Why should he dive for something !? wink So, up to 2-3g withstands overloads in flight and that's enough ... if you got somewhere in bad weather and only ... occasionally, if the meteorological station and orbital "Mitra" of Roshydromet failed at that hour ...!?


    Well, that means it shouldn't. I just imagined how he would go to the angle of attack with missiles when he began to work on the ground. Probably, more precisely - I'm sure - the designers have calculated this moment.
    The tail booms are somewhat similar to Rama ... No?
