Bin atlı o gün dev gibi bir orduyu yendik! - A thousand cavaliers, we beat a giant army that day! (Akıncılar, by Yahya Kemal Beyatlı)
The Bayraktar TB2 has changed the notion of how modern-day conflicts are being fought that, now
that it has been tried and tested in at least three separate conflicts,
cannot be reverted. The fact that a relatively light and
inexpensive drone could not only evade but actively search out and
destroy modern surface-to-air missile (SAM) and electronic warfare (EW) systems while suffering little losses in return has rightfully garnered worldwide attention. The result of the TB2's entry into combat was a stunning upset
of the status quo, forcing many countries to rethink their approach to defence.
