Bayraktar’s TB2 drones have already been exported to a number of countries. Ukraine is using the Bayraktar drones in its fights against Russian forces in the ongoing war.
TB2 has become the most talked-about drone due to its success in the Nagorno-Karabakh conflict and other parts of the world, Selçuk Bayraktar, the chief technology officer (CTO) of the Turkish firm, said in a recent speech. He also noted that Baykar had sold more drones to the nations across the globe than any other company.
Exports account for more than 90 percent of Baykar’s total revenues, according to Bayraktar.
Bayraktar TB2 is a Medium Altitude Long Endurance (MALE), a tactical unmanned aerial vehicle capable of conducting Intelligence, Surveillance and Reconnaissance (ISR) and armed attack missions.
The drone holds the record in the Turkish aviation history for endurance, with 27 hours 3 minutes, and for altitude with 25,030 feet.
Meanwhile, Bayraktar shared a video showing the endurance test flight of the company’s unmanned aerial combat vehicle AKINCI B, which was conducted on April 14. The drone climbed to 35,000 feet, Bayraktar said.
