Skydagger General Manager Mehmet Öztekin stated that the company has significantly increased its FPV drone production capacity. He noted that initial production targets were 120,000 units annually, which the company successfully achieved and has now reached production levels of 150,000-160,000 units. The company undertook comprehensive infrastructure development to achieve this production increase through substantial investments.

FPV drones manufactured by Skydagger typically consist of 11 major components. The company produces 9 of these components in its own manufacturing facilities. Öztekin emphasized that intensive efforts are underway to achieve fully domestic production of all components. FPV drones have become an effective weapon system on modern battlefields due to their small size, rapid maneuverability, and precise targeting capabilities. These systems are controlled by operators through real-time video feed, allowing them to be directed toward targets with high accuracy.

From a Turkish defense industry perspective, increasing FPV drone production capacity holds strategic significance. The widespread and effective use of FPV drones in conflict zones, particularly in Ukraine, has driven increased demand for serial production of these systems. Skydagger's ambitious production targets demonstrate Turkey's technological competence and industrial capacity in this field. Additionally, the company recently introduced the MDF500 mobile drone factory. The MDF500 is designed to produce 500 FPV drones monthly with just 4 personnel, providing production flexibility and rapid deployment capability.

The development trajectory of drone technology has accelerated significantly in recent years. Initially used for military reconnaissance and surveillance, unmanned aerial vehicles have evolved into armed platforms. FPV drones represent the latest stage of this evolution. Turkish defense industry holds an important position in this domain, as evidenced by large-scale armed UAV platforms such as Bayraktar TB2 and TB3. Skydagger's success reflects the diversity and depth of Turkey's unmanned aerial vehicle ecosystem. The company's achievements contribute to a comprehensive portfolio of UAV solutions ranging from tactical FPV systems to strategic surveillance platforms.

At the international level, similar FPV drone production initiatives are underway. Greece is working on a comparable production project. The impact of drones on the battlefield requires competence across all links of the logistics chain: raw material and electronic component supply, battery production, software development, communications infrastructure, maintenance and repair, and operator training. Skydagger's achievement of 150,000-160,000 annual production units demonstrates successful organization of this comprehensive logistical support. In the near future, TOYCA kamikaze UAV launch tests from TCG ANADOLU are planned; these tests will represent a new phase in Turkish naval forces' integration of unmanned aerial systems.
