This claim in a recent Business Insider news article did not surprise me.
I have been researching the drone manufacturing space for few years now.
Just last week, I wrote to you how Chinese drones played a big role in the recent Galwan standoff.
China has invested billions over past few years to develop and manufacture drones of all sizes and shapes.
In fact, China has become a major supplier of large armed drones. Not surprisingly, Pakistan is one of its biggest clients.
But did I tell you that Turkish drone companies are giving even the American ones a run for their money?
Yes, you read that right!

India Rushes to Prepare for a 2-Front War
A 2-front war is here.
China and Pakistan seem to be acting in sync... when it comes to attacking India.
Both countries have increased their military activity in the border region like never before.
And that's exactly what India is rushing to prepare for.
In fact, the Indian government has already allocated Rs 90,048 crores for 2020-21 itself.
Plus, an additional Rs 4 lakh crore would be spent over next 5-7 years.
This money will secure our borders. And...it will potentially trigger a mega growth opportunity for a select few Indian defence companies.
With this flood of money flowing their way... their stock prices could potentially shoot up to record highs in the coming years.
You can learn everything about this massive opportunity tomorrow at our Explosive Profits Summit.
At this summit, you will also get the details of what we believe is India #1 defence stock pick.
It's a potential 10x opportunity in the long term.

In recent years, Turkey has developed an impressive local drone industry from the ground up. Armed Turkish-built drones have proven themselves in combat operations in Syria, Iraq, and as far afield as Libya.
To add to that Turkish companies are currently developing a variety of lethal armed drones. They range from large, high-flying, bomb-laden ones to very small, low-flying aerial vehicles that can form deadly swarms.
To put it simply, Turkey has now gained the attention of global defence experts. They believe Turkey might become the Middle East's drone superpower.
Make no mistake. United States was the first country to use drone missiles after 9/11. But Turkey now rivals the US, UK, and China as the world's most advanced drone market.
And all of this happened in the last five years.
Like India, Turkey relied on defence imports from the US and UK for decades.
But in 2016, Turkey stopped relying on allies who thought it was in an arms race with the US and other NATO countries. Developing its own military drones became a top priority.
And the results are there for all to see.
Companies like Boeing and Lockheed Martin acknowledge that the technology in Turkish drones is at par with theirs.

So, China and Turkey are among the countries who have almost stopped relying on the US, UK, and Russia for arms imports, especially drones.
India should not be far behind.
Like we witnessed in the recent border clashes with China, multi-use drones are a necessity to safeguard our soldiers at high altitudes.
The drones can be immensely helpful even during peace time for various commercial purposes.
According to Inc42, there are as many as 50 startups in India researching and producing the Gen-Next drones for India.
The Indian drone market (currently about US$ 17 million) is a tiny fraction of the global drone market.
The Chinese drone market alone is 14 times that of India's.
