2020 Mart ayındaki Bahar Kalkanı Harekâtı'nda Suriye ordusuna karşı Türk silahlı insansız hava araçlarının (SİHA) büyük başarı kazanması, İHA ve SİHA'ların modern savaştaki yeri ve savaş alanının dönüşümü konusunda uluslararası camiada yoğun araştırma ve tartışmaları tetikledi.
Suriye'den kısa süre sonra Libya'da sahada zor durumda ve kuşatılmış vaziyetteki meşru Ulusal Mutabakat Hükümeti'nin Hafter güçlerine karşı yine Türk SİHA'larının ön planda olduğu karşı saldırılarla büyük başarılar kazanması ve tüm dengelerin tersine dönmesi, bahsi geçen tartışmalara yeni veriler sağladı.
Son olarak 2'nci Dağlık Karabağ Savaşı'nda Azerbaycan ordusunun Türk ve İsrail yapımı İHA ve SİHA'larla Ermeni birliklerine büyük kayıplar verdirmesi ve savaşı kazanması, merkezinde SİHA'ların olduğu bir dönüşümün yaşandığı ve Türkiye'nin bir İHA gücü olarak anılması gerektiği şeklindeki değerlendirmelerin sayısını artırdı.
2020 başından bu yana Türk yapımı İHA ve SİHA'ların savaş alanındaki performansı, taktik, stratejik ve jeopolitik etkileri ile Türkiye'nin İHA gücü olarak konumuna dair dünya çapında başlıca basın organı ve düşünce kuruluşlarının yayımladığı analiz, rapor ve makaleleri aşağıya sıraladım. Fırsat buldukça güncellemeye çalışacağım.
