DEVELOPMENT IN GREECE
The Greek-made Atlas-8 Drone successfully fired MBDA's Akeron Anti-Tank Missile


However, tens of thousands of People who watched the video mocked the shot on social media ... but, this concept could work and cause us difficulties

The only positive aspect is that the AKERON missile costs over $200,000, making it not a cost-effective concept

Turkiye launches cheap munitions ( MAM family ) from expensive platforms TB-2/3, ANKA , AKINCI ...... whereas here, expensive missiles ( AKERON ) are fired from cheap platforms like Atlas-8 Drone


However, since its range is 20–30 km, it cannot conduct operations within Turkish territory.

Greece will most likely use this Drone to defend the islands

Since the AKERON missile has a range of 5 km, this drone would need to approach Turkish forces to within 5 km , Turkish forces would detect the drone and take countermeasures

It reminds me of this.



But if the Greeks are really going to pay $200,000 for a missile, thats incredibly dumb, when we have seen what an FPV drone can do and a much lower price.

Türkiye’s new 300 ER air-launched ballistic missile marks a major leap in regional power projection by delivering supersonic, stand-off strike capabilities directly to both manned fighters and unmanned combat air vehicles (when launched from a Supersonic fighter jet has an unmatched range of 500-600 km
