I am considering the Atak and T70 deliveries. When they start the serial production(with everything is ready) , deliveries seems to be on time and with good numbers. Getting to serial production stage seems to be the bottleneck.

I've begun to think that the relatively slow production rate of the Gökbey is caused by the process of integrating the helicopters into the respective units. I believe that this year, every branch will begin receiving their first helicopter (except for the Turkish Naval Forces and the Coast...

Doesn't look like Gökbey. Looks more like AW109.

Speaking of which, any news on the C-130Js? They were getting overhaul but is there any update on that?

Forget about eo tech, they finally got M60TM!! :D Hopefully, the grandpa M48s finally start enjoying their retirement. (At least partially. I’m not crazy enough to think they’ll fully retire anytime soon :D)

I don't know(literally :) ) but I think that the weapon load will likely be subject to many changes throughout its lifetime, depending on the threats of that era. Navy will keep her up to date. Or not ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Well I've missed the follow up video and just see it now. Since I am getting old, I really couldn't really say if it is all animation of some of the shots are from real photos. But there seems to be a a real vehicle. I hope we will see a real test footage soon or more so a finalized product.

So they seem to be leaning closer towards to ASELSAN’s solution for point defense.

I mean, in this case, it is mostly caused by EASA rather than us, but yeah, it still made me laugh. I really hate EASA for this. Nobran herifler. Also we really need to do something about the TS3000 regarding this. If I remember correctly, the TS1400 has basically been ready for at least a...

Next year?

Interesting that they left out the engines as Baykar aims to develop 20000lbs engine themselves.

Why go for 42000lbs then?

By the way this was the product that made me excited before I saw the MSB AR-GE thingies.(I am not sure what to call them at this moment) So finally someone made a vehicle that potentially can replace the Defenders?

I.. am really afraid to check it out end finding that this wasn't a joke :D

When I was going to the sleep thism morning(was at the night shift), seeing the 100th Pars İzci made me smile. I woke up and saw we have ICBM and 42000lb engine! (well at least as a project) Yep, I indeed have some catching up to do :D
