The new Turkish threat: a drone carrying explosive drones
Turkey has launched a conversion for the Bayraktar TB2 drone, turning it from an attack platform into a carrier of armed FPV drones. The drone can carry up to 16 Skydagger explosive drones, 8 under each wing, and serves as a relay station between the operator and the drones. Baykar CEO Haluk Bayraktar said the use of the drone extends the range of the drones from about 15 km to thousands of km. Meanwhile, the US approved the sale to Jordan of up to 1,500 APKWS II laser-guided rockets, used to intercept UAVs. Ukrainian intelligence estimates that Russia produces more than 200 missiles per month, including about 110 ballistic missiles, and holds a stockpile of about 700 ballistic missiles and several thousand cruise missiles.
