Turkey does not have the expertise nor money to build this.

Drones, they were merely assembling them from suppliers, e.g. https://www.trtworld.com/turkey/suspending-drone-supply-to-t... or https://hetq.am/en/article/126227

I doubt that Turkey won three wars with drones, as mentioned in the thread here. But they helped at least win one battle (Azerbaijan).

Turkey is of tremendous geo-strategical importance but lacks technology, oil/gas and money.

- Big importer of Energy

- Huge trade balance deficit

- Currency in free-fall

Recep Tayyip Erdogan’s image and Turkey’s economy are both taking a battering

I think Erdo should focus on other things than trying to rebuild the Ottoman Empire.
