The conflict between Russia and Ukraine continues, and as it enters its tenth month of conflict, Russia began a "special military operation" in Ukraine on February 23, and now Russia and Ukraine have formed a "confrontation" near the Dnieper River. The ongoing conflict between Russia and Ukraine has entered a new stage, and the "Great Counteroffensive" organized by the Ukrainian army also appears to have insufficient stamina, and it is difficult to operate across the Dnieper River, and Russia has set up new fortifications on the west bank of the Dnieper. Turkey became one of the winners during the Russian-Ukrainian conflict, as Turkey supplied Ukraine with a large number of TB-2 Flagbearer UAV products.
Ukraine through the TB-2 UAV provided by Turkey, severely frustrated the Russian army, Russia did not pay attention to the use of UAVs at first, Turkey used the advantage of UAVs, constantly hit the targets of the Russian army. Turkey's TB-2 UAV "became famous" in the Russian-Ukrainian conflict, and then several countries said that they would purchase Turkey's TB-2 "Flagbearer" UAV system. Turkey's TB-2 UAV has participated in military operations many times, Azerbaijan has used the TB-20,000 aircraft system on a large scale in the Nagorno-Karabakh conflict, and Turkey has also used TB-2 UAV in military operations in northern Syria to combat Kurdish forces.
Turkey is not the only winner of the Russian-Ukrainian conflict, Iranian drones are also used on a large scale in the Russian-Ukrainian conflict, and Russia uses the "Witness" 136 UAV imported from Iran to carry out precision strikes on Ukraine's infrastructure. Although Iran's "Witness" 136 UAV "shined" in the Russian-Ukrainian conflict, neither Russia nor Iran recognized the use of the "Witness" 136 in the Russian-Ukrainian conflict, and Iran naturally did not admit to providing Russia with the "Witness" 136 UAV. Turkey has not only the development and export of TB-2 "Flagbearer" UAVs, but also the development of "Red Apple" UAVs, according to the news released by Turkey, the Turkish company Baika Technology officially announced the high-slide video of the "Red Apple" UAV.
The so-called "Red Apple" drone is a platform with a stealth design, similar in appearance to China's J-20 fighter, and also uses a canard aerodynamic layout, including a double vertical tail design is also similar. After Israel's Baika Technology announced the "Red Apple" stealth drone, it immediately attracted the attention of the outside world, the "Red Apple" UAV is large in size and is likely to use a built-in bomb bay structure, otherwise it is impossible to achieve stealth indicators. Turkey's Baika Technology has developed and sold a number of UAVs, TB-2 is the most prominent model, and now the emergence of the "Red Apple" UAV has made Baika Technology once again the focus of attention.
Since 2020, the UAV developed by Turkey has played a role in multiple battlefields and conflicts, and because of this, Baika Technology has become a blockbuster, judging from the announcement of the "Red Apple" UAV, Baika Technology has accumulated a lot of technology, so it can soon launch a stealth drone platform. From the perspective of Turkey's "replica" of the J-20 Weilong fighter, it also shows the success of the aerodynamic layout of the J-20 fighter, in fact, the "loyal wingman" jointly developed by the United States and Australia is also very similar to the J-20 fighter, which can be described as "the same path".
