One of the primary reasons #Azerbaijan emerged victorious during its conflict with #Armenia in 2020 was that the Turkish #Bayraktar drones completely dominated the technologically inferior Armenian defense forces.

1/n Image
The conflict portrayed the success and effectiveness of the #Turkish drone program and its combat capabilities.

Türkiye has been able to challenge industry behemoths like the #US and #Israel to capture market share in #drone exports.

2/n
Even in the #RussiaUkraine conflict, they were able to inflict considerable damage on #Russian forces.

They have striking precision capabilities and come with relatively lesser price tags compared to their US and Israeli alternatives.

3/n
#Turkey's more advanced drone fleet includes Akıncı, TAI Anka and Aksungur. It is also working on its most advanced Kızılelma, a jet-powered #UCAV which has aggressive manoeuvring capabilities and stealthiness against radar and is equipped with state-of-the-art weaponry.

4/n
Turkish drone and defence exports have emerged as a #foreignpolicy tool benefiting the government to establish new #geopolitical ties and forming #military partnerships and alliances catering to its geopolitical ambitions.

1. #G20 Summit
