Thousands Of People Have Sent Money To Build 3 Drones For Ukraine. The Turkish Company Baykar Refused The Money

The Bayraktar TB2 is a top-tier unmanned aircraft that has proven itself extremely useful in Ukraine's battles against Russia. Baykar Makina said on Twitter that the "People's Bayraktar" crowdfunding campaign was successful after a few days, with a large number of funds being raised on the trio of drones.

However, the company will not accept payment for the three drones. Rather, it will send them free of charge. Company demanded that the funds be returned to the Ukrainian people, who are facing Russian aggression. "Baykar prays for a fair solution and lasting peace," they said in a statement on the social media platform.

Security analyst Vladimir Bednar told Refresher that Bayraktar drones play an important role in the conflict between Russia and Ukraine. What makes Bayraktars, about which the Ukrainians also composed a song, so special?

"The great advantage of these drones is that they are small and agile enough to make them difficult to identify and target in the air. On the other hand, they have sufficient capacity to have relatively strong means of attack, such as anti-tank guided missiles, which are also intelligent. The missiles can guide with extreme accuracy, so they can also be used for moving targets," he explained for our portal.
