>>65136426>we have bypassed the 4k guncam footage of drones booming 'n zooming other drones completelyFuck this gay ass timeline.
>>65136426>Sudan's Akıncı UCAV destroyed the Akıncı UCAV used by the UAE-backed RSF forcesMeanwhile in Ankara...*happy turkish noises*
I don't see a reason to doubt it but it's very strange how the video cuts before the impact

>>65136426All I know is that the Islamists are winning this war.
>>65136566>no explosionlame
>>65136426>UAE-backed RSF forcesthey are also backed by Israel
>>65136566man, these things are slow and vulnerable. what if they were made more resilient and agile. a bigger engine, more payload? larger wings for more agility, too. you could even add room for a human "driver" to take over just in case the remote controls are being jammed.
>>65136815What are you insane a contraption like colud never be made hell what would you even call people driving those abominations
>>65136426Hey since we are talking turkish drones, what actually happend to Ukraine's TB2s?There was kind of a hiatus due to russian manpads, but we did see a couple of TB2 strikes in 2025.
>>65136901they're paving the way... so maybe "aircraft pilot" is the most suitable term. i've seen many TWITTER COMMENTATORS saying that unmanned air combat is dead and we should stop making drones in the light of recent conflicts featuring improvised MANNED drones shooting down MULTIPLE unmanned drones every sortie. that's an insane return on investment!! why is MIC still obsessed with building drones? these military people are always busy preparing for the previous conflict.
>>65136943They're still around, but not much publicity is given to them because of all of the new flashy Ukrainian-made drones and missiles
>>65136943Aren't TB2s supposed to be replaced by TB3s?
>>65136943My understanding is that they’ve mostly moved to coastal recon duty
>>65136566>the osmanic need for fratricide is built into their dronesVery traditional, yes.
>>65136426>(both drones are the same model and same maker)An IRL application of the "I play both sides so I always win" concept.
>>65136426What missile?
>>65136943Frontline is too dangerous for something so high-capability and expensive. Frontline drones need to be effectively disposable.
>>65136815>What are Loyal Wingman dronesThe age of human-operated fighter jets is coming to a close. (Realistically in roughly 3 or 4 generations)
>>65136426>roach on roach warfarebrutal.
>>65136426since when do akincis carry weapons?
>>65139246Akinci was always intended to carry weapons. Its competitor (forgot the name) was designed mostly for surveillance, with ordnance capacity a secondary function.
