Turkey showed a new strike drone similar to the Russian Okhotnik UAV

Turkey actively develops, manufactures and exports unmanned aerial vehicles. Along with conventional UAVs, the Turks are developing and Drones with jet engines, such as Bayraktar Kızılelma. Soon, another Turkish device will be added to it.

Turkish company TUSAŞ Engine Industries, a subsidiary of Turkish Aerospace Industries (TAI), has begun development of a new heavy jet-powered drone called the Anka-3. The assembly of the first prototype and the start of testing are scheduled for the next year, 2023, so far only an image of a promising UAV has been shown.

(...) Anka-3 is a new generation project that will take the capabilities of unmanned aerial vehicles to a higher level (...) it will open a new page in the field of UAVs with its jet engine and speed, large payload and almost invisible design on radar . Next year we will continue to share good the news from our project

Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan said.

Judging by the image, the Turkish Anka-3 UAV resembles the Russian S-70 "Okhotnik" UAV, also made according to the "flying wing" scheme. Turkish maximum takeoff weight drone will be about 7 tons, it will be equipped with a turbofan jet engine.

It is planned that the new drone will be able to attack ground targets even in areas with a strong air defense system thanks to its armament and its design, invisible to radar.

Anka-3 analogue of RQ-170. The S-70 is a completely different class, stupidly 25-27 tons of maximum takeoff weight for a hunter, and 7 tons for a Turkish UAV.

[Anachoret]

For every Turkish Anka we have both Pet'ka and Chapaev))

Chapaev, Petka and Anka fought together in the same detachment for Soviet power, I simply remind you.

what is "similar" to the citizens of zhunaliza? "butt" is round ... and that's it? Type one, similar, scheme "wing" ... well, damn it "legal officers".

[Shurik70]

Journalists get paid for this.
Well, actually. Anka, like the Hunter, also has wings. And also a shock UAV. Yeah.

You don't understand, it's different

[Dismas]

In a division, in one division. I'm just clarifying.

[Anachoret]

You probably didn’t understand the joke)) Vasily Ivanovich Chapaev and Pyotr Isaev are real personalities who fought for Soviet power), and Anka is the fruit of fiction))
By analogy, we will answer all sorts of Turkish science fiction stories about prodigies with real workhorses, something like this))

[Goto]

Let's start a series of "hunter"? Or will we bring another 10 years?

[VORON538]

There is where to go. Only here the Turks will launch their own series, but it’s not clear with us. It seems that there are a lot of samples of all kinds of equipment, but things don’t go beyond prototypes and single samples.

[Sergei Kazarin]

Yes, Orion and Bayraktar started approximately the same, but the result is different

"" For every Turkish Anka, we have both Pet'ka and Chapaev)) "" and a Maxim machine gun with a cart)) cars have to be produced without foreign spare parts with a scrap ...

That's why they spit on the go ....

[Mikhail Krivopalov]

If anything, then the Maxim machine gun is a British invention

[Alien From]

The main thing is in whose hands it is do not find

[Dismas]

And the carriage of the cart is German. Used by German settlers.

[setter]

If anything, then the Maxim machine gun is a British invention

If anything, then this is an American invention.

[Nickelium]

Anka means Phoenix in Turkish.

[novel66]

Anka must be with a machine gun, by all means

[Sergei Kazarin]

For 10 years, apart from the ancient Orlan, developed under Serdyukov, nothing was found

[Carlos Hall]

We have yet to see a hunter-hunter on the Ukrainian battlefield

[rocket757]

It is planned that the new drone will be able to attack ground targets even in areas with a strong air defense system thanks to its armament and its design, invisible to radar.

. Again and again "invisible" to radar?
So it’s understandable, the goal may turn out to be not simple ... you need to prepare for such surprises in the future.

[cold wind]

TAI is an analogue of our UAC, they have a whole program for the development of the UAV fleet. This is without Baikar and other private companies. The complex is important here, not single developments.

[rocket757]

I repeated, and I will repeat, again and again, that the correct path of development in each area of ​​​​military equipment, and the Armed Forces as a whole, is COMPLEX.
There is nothing new in this, it has always been so, except that the variety of the product range has become noticeably greater.

[Thrifty]

It is easier for the Turks in the sense that they take a lot of nodes for their drone in NATO countries, they were not imposed with such sanctions as Russia. And we just calmly buried import substitution, instead of producing our own, massively importing again Chinese ...

[Graz]

Canada and Austria overlaid them with their components for UAVs after buying the S400

[stelltok]

Canada and Austria do not supply them with their components for UAVs

So they found other suppliers.

[Goto]

Denis Valentinovich Manturov will not let you lie. Indeed, we are not going to develop production, we do not need it, we will buy it abroad!

"I am again tormented by vague doubts." (C) about the correspondence between the title and reality. I'm talking about the similarity to the "Hunter" of the Turkish "excrement".
The difference in mass at times and the absence of the Su-57 among the Turks as a mandatory component for unlocking the potential of the S-70 is far from a complete list of what hurts the eye.

I agree with you! Appearance is one thing, but the filling is another. We do not know much about the Su-57 and the "Hunter" And that's good

[filibuster]

How does Cy-57 unlock the potential of C-70?

[Nikolaevich I]

When did the Turks start developing their Anka? In any case, already in 2023 they are going to fly ... They have been fooling around with the "Hunter" for 10 years and ... "there is no end in sight..."!

[cold wind]

Kyzylam was presented on July 20, 2021, the first flight was on December 14, 2022. It's time to start learning to work with the Turks.

In a capitalist state (who is against it, this is the tale of SAM GDP is permanent) there can be no rollback to the past))) Just as there can be no control of the AUTHORITIES over the legal scribes of the dash, the boyars and the owners of the Russian land)) And control disappeared with the death of the IVS. That's all. Ilita went into all serious trouble and degraded to the point that the heiress of the great Soviet civilization is bought by almost everything from a neighboring country that 30 years ago was nobody and nothing in the industrial sector.

And that without socialism it is impossible to work at all? All over the world they work somehow, but we can’t? So maybe it's not about socialism, but about the reflection in the mirror? The fish rots from the head.

[svp67]

Judging by the image, the Turkish Anka-3 UAV resembles the Russian S-70 Okhotnik UAV, .

Which, in turn, resembles the X-47

also made according to the "flying wing" scheme

[cold wind]

You have an X-47B in your photo, here it takes off and lands on AB.
There are more than a dozen analogues of S-70 in at least the United States, European countries, China, and Iran. If we talk about the order of appearance, then the Hunter is in the 10th place. Here is the French version, the design of the S-70 is closest to it.

[Consultant]

... which, in turn ... can be reached to the developments of the USSR.

[bombaher]

So where are they, our hunters?
And the Turks will succeed. And then compared with what is only in parades.

[Amateur]

thanks to the armament and its design, invisible to radar.

Any aircraft is invisible to radars only in two cases: if the crew "claps their ears" and if they run out of missiles. In all other cases, this is advertising.

Then there may be a steam locomotive towards ...)) (L.N. Tolstoy "Anna Karenina")

[scary]

Somehow, before the war, UAVs of medium mass-dimensional characteristics were the favorites. Here, like "Bayraktar", the Russian "Outpost". About "Hunter", it was said that this is a way out, because. technologically and unificationally, it is close to the aircraft in production, so they do what they can, and not what they need. It turned out that the "bayraktars" are not favorites, but the "hunters" have a certain perspective. Their armament power is comparable to manned vehicles, and in conditions of unsuppressed air defense, at least partially, they could perform the function of aircraft. I think that powerful free-planing bombs could also be hung on them. I wonder if something is even moving about the "hunters"?

"Very happy for our partners"

[Ivan Ivanov_7]

S-70 of a completely different class and purpose!

[Mikhail Ivanov]

If anything, all drones are brothers, because there is no pilot)))
But speaking seriously, it is worth noting that we have a lot of developments, and we are attacking the Ukrainian with Iranian mopeds. Therefore, we now compare the fifth point with a finger. At the moment, there is neither our Hunter nor their Anka. And under the sanctions, we are unlikely to be able to fully implement the Hunter project in the near future. We need to focus our efforts on the production of the Orlan-30 UAV, which is now in high demand at the front...

[Consultant]

Also, it is obvious that "Altius" and "Orion" are needed in good quantities.

But the lower weight of the Turkish UAV, compared to the "Hunter", may mean a smaller size and less visibility on radars.
