The Reuters news agency reports that Turkey has delivered 20 Bayraktar TB2 drones to the United Arab Emirates out of turn.

Here's What We Know

About two weeks ago, it was revealed that the UAE was willing to invest $2 billion in 120 Bayraktar TB2 drones and armaments. Specifically, ROKETSAN's high-precision laser-guided MAM-L glide bombs.

As far as Baykar's deliveries are booked for three years, it was assumed that the United Arab Emirates would not receive its drones anytime soon. However, Reuters quoted its informants as saying that Turkey has already delivered 20 Bayraktar TB2 drones and could sell more UAVs. That's a month's production of drones.
