While Western companies stop exporting their drone components to Turkey under governmental pressure, Turkish companies like Baykar just move forward at full speed

the firm’s decision will have little effect on the Turkish company’s production processes and operational capabilities of its drones.

UK’s Havant-based firm, Andair, supplies subsystems to aerial vehicles. Baykar has used Andair-made fuel system parts like fuel pumps, check valves and water holders in its drones, according to experts. In addition to Cots, Baykar could also effectively produce those fuel system components indigenously. “According to our own knowledge, Baykar Savunma has designed a much more advanced check valve for its AKINCI combat drones by its own engineering power,”that Baykar also purchased bomb racks, a crucial part of drones, which are used to operate missile release systems, from a UK-based firm, EDO MBM Technology. It is owned by an American company, Harris Corporation.

In October, Rotax, an Austrian-based aerospace company, whose parent company Bombardier is owned by Canadians, also stopped supplying its 912-model recreational aircraft engines to Baykar.
