Russian shock Orion was appreciated in the USA: equal to Turkish Bayraktar

December 29 2020 41

American experts from The War Zone magazine believe that the Russian Orion reconnaissance and strike drone is a direct analogue of the Turkish Bayraktar and the outdated American MQ-1 Predator.

According to the Americans, the Orions and Bayraktar TB2 have practically no competitors in their niche. However, Russia has organized a better system of selling and servicing its weapons than the Turks did, thanks to which Russian drones can become more widespread in the world. Turkish drones have proven themselves quite well during the recent military confrontation in Nagorno-Karabakh.

According to the experts of the American publication, such combat drones will become increasingly popular during military conflicts.

Agency RIA News citing sources in the Russian defense industry, reported on Monday, December 28, about the successful launch of guided small-sized missiles by Orion, as well as the use of guided gliding bombs by an unmanned vehicle. Earlier, the head of the Russian defense department Sergei Shoigu noted that such UAVs have already been transferred to service in the Russian Aerospace Forces.

The Orion UAV has been in development since 2011, it belongs to medium-altitude aircraft and can stay in the air for up to 1 day. The Orion's maximum take-off weight is about 1100 kg. The UAV can carry up to 250 kg of combat load.

    Turkish drones fly with might and main, successfully destroy enemy personnel and equipment during the hostilities in Syria, Libya, Karabakh, and the Russian Orion has not yet shown itself in any way in a real war, so there is not the slightest reason for your optimism. About the fact that the Turks are far from being the leaders in this area, I am already silent.

      Life will show. Not so long ago, they also joked about cruise missiles, until the Calibers actually flew. MC 21 flies with engines better than Western ones. No outside help. And your entire military-industrial complex rests on the achievements and personnel of the USSR and the West. And we just stayed for 25 years.

        Regarding the "Calibers", the banter began after the famous volley from the Caspian Sea, when Iranian agrarians began to find in their areas the debris of missiles flying in the direction of Syria. In combination with the victorious reports of the Russian Defense Ministry, reporting on the number of destroyed headquarters, warehouses and other enemy facilities, it really looked ridiculous. Even the Arabs then joked: "Caliber" is the most accurate missile, where it will fall - there is the headquarters of the Islamists! "

        In addition to links to such garbage dumps as CNN, BBC and the like, there is nothing. They write 4 rockets fell. Even if this is true, then this is a mere trifle, given that 99 "Calibers" have been produced in Syria all the time. You, too, in 2018 "presented" to the Syrians an anti-missile missile from "David's Sling" after an unsuccessful attempt to intercept "Tochka-U" and which did not self-destruct, or do you not notice the log in your own eye?

        The bulk of our (Russian) drones are light drones, medium ones are represented either by imported machines or Russian samples created on their basis (there are fewer of them), but heavy strike or reconnaissance drones are still in their infancy.
        
        I'm not saying that we have no drones at all, but even Israel and Turkey are still behind in this.

However, Russia has organized a better system of sales and service of its weapons than the Turks did.

First of all, Russia has established production, moreover, it does not depend on its components, from the mercy of Canadians and others, thanks to which it can become more widespread in the world, because Turkish-assembled drones can get "not only everything."

It's quite funny to listen to obsolete aircraft, they say the tests of the "super-duper-missile" have failed again, hypersound remains beyond the control of the hegemordor

Yeah. There was only one little thing left - to organize the production of not piece goods, but to sell them in hundreds, like the Turks. I think that in 10 years they will catch up with them. Interestingly, and to whom have they already been sold, if only recently only one set was transferred to the RF Armed Forces?
