(MENAFN) According to the Turkish industry and technology minister, Turkey introduced options to the UK for the sale of armed drones.

CNN Turk quoted Mustafa Varank as saying that "The UK is very interested in Turkish armed drones. Now, they have to decide. We presented them with the options. Right now, they're seriously considering these options."

In an event jointly organized by the Istanbul Defense and Aerospace Cluster Association and Istanbul Chamber of Industry on Jan. 21, Varank further declared that "I believe that in the very near future, we'll see Bayraktars and Ankas (unmanned aerial vehicles) purchased from Turkey flying in European skies, as well."
