The TB2 also has one other big advantage. You can build more of them (or Turkey can) for relatively little money and relatively rapidly. Building 50 F-16s in a few months just isn't possible. Since you don't lose the "pilots" when a TB2 doesn't come home, the replacement airframes can go right into the fight. Of course, these airframes carry 150kg of weapons, not 7575kg.

Sounds like Baykar maybe subcontracting some drone construction in Ukraine actually.

It seems in the Donetsk region, Ukraine crossed the Siversky Donets river to liberated Ozerne, with rumors that Yampil is now contested.  This seems like a risky operation, as holding Ozerne will be tough logistically, however maybe Ukraine is taking advantage of a spread out Russian defensive line, or possibly trying to draw troops away from other areas.  This also comes as Ukraine shows videos of raising their flag in Vysokopillia in the Kherson region. We will see if we get more news from Kherson.
