Ukrainian hope in Bayraktar fades as Russain AA takes them out; Turkish drone suffers reputation

4/30/2022 Russian AA takes out another Bayraktar
Machine translation: Turkish drone manufacturer Bayraktar suffers big losses in reputation due to conflict in Ukraine – prospects for new contracts are very vague
We have already written that the company producing drones belongs to the son-in-law of President Erdogan. After the conflict in Karabakh in 2020, where the Azerbaijani army successfully used Bayraktar TB2 drones, the video of their strikes was successfully dispersed over the network, many believed in the invulnerability of these machines, and the drones themselves became something of a “superweapon” in the minds of the Ukrainian public.

Ukraine also fell into the Turkish advertising bait, becoming one of the buyers of Bayraktars even before the start of the NWO. And, it is worth noting that in the first days of the special operation, videos of strikes on Russian columns really began to appear on the network, but subsequently there were fewer and fewer such videos, and by the end of March they disappeared altogether.

The next blow to the reputation of the Bayraktars was the decision of the Armed Forces of Ukraine to use them in raids on Russian border cities. Today, social networks are simply inundated with photos of downed Turkish drones in the Kursk, Belgorod and Voronezh regions. This is definitely not the kind of content that Selçuk Bayraktar and his father-in-law Recep Tayyip Erdogan would like to see.

Fuel was added to the fire by Ukrainian President Zelensky, who at first refused to comment on the significant losses of the Bayraktars, and then even announced at a press conference that these drones had practically no effect on the course of hostilities.
