In a campaign launched last week by the Lithuanian Minister of Defense, it was said that the necessary amount of money would be collected and the Bayraktar TB2 SİHA from Turkey would be bought and sent to Ukraine. As a matter of fact, they achieved this goal by collecting 5 million Euros in 3 days. Baykar, who learned this, gave a Bayraktar TB2 to Liyvanya.

Of course, right now Ukraine’s war with Russia continues unabated. For this reason, ammunition support comes first among the most needed things. Therefore, according to the claims of some sources, with this 5 million Euro aid collected, MAM series ammunition to be used in TB2s can be purchased. In addition, thanks to this free purchase, a new one has been added to the countries that technically receive TB2.
The official statement made by Baykar is as follows:
The people of Lithuania honorably raised money to buy one Bayraktar TB2 for Ukraine. Knowing this, Baykar will present a free Bayraktar TB2 to Lithuania. We want these collected funds to go to Ukraine for humanitarian aid.
