And the last but not least aselsan Atılgan SAM photographed on it's way towards Idlib. Interesting they are using a civilian carrier just maybe to drag low attention.

This is not related with TAF, at least not directly.

Some of the M60T Sabra main battle tanks which received M60TM "Fırat" update including aselsan SARP 12.7mm rws, ADOP laser warning sensors, ADIS driver 360 degree day & night sights and ADOP FLIR has also get Pulat which was originally Zaslon APS but offered to the Turkish Army as a stop-gap solution untill the aselsan's own active protection system called "Akkor" will be ready.
None of the data have been shown into the public regarding of the field performance of the Pulat APS yet though..

As you know, Russian-built Pantsir 1 Air Defense system belonging to the SAA have been shot down (it was active, I saw its radar was spinning) by the UCAV of Turkish Armed Forces. Could this have happened with Aselsan KORAL EWS support? Otherwise, the UCAV must be flying higher than Pantsir's effective range. (Turkey is now officially the 2nd country, after Israel, to have destroyed Russian Pantsir 1)

That's some good shooting. On a few it looks like one drone is laser designating and another is shooting. What ordinance is being used?

Another Pantsir S1 system has been destroyed by GNA operated Bayraktar TB2 UCAV in Libya in 2019 so that's actually the second one. So with that knowledge the Koral's jamming support its not necessary since TB2 is smaller than a standard MALE size UCAV which gives it very low-cross radar section and in combination with a good operator it could be very effective against SAM systems.
Mostly the roketsan MAM-L guided munition for Bayraktar TB2 and TAI Anka-B as well as roketsan Cirit laser guided 2.75" missile for TAI Anka-B. Apart from these maybe the Tubitak Togan 81mm precise attack mortar might be used on UCAVs for human and base targets.
