A Cypriot folk song

how will they fucking handle the required bandwidth from a full-blown FCR radar, an EOTS and an IRST? these must be generating insane amount of data. have they provided any info on the communication systems of KIZILELMA yet?

is there a timeline provided for the next Hürjet's rollout?

my only beef is that it still doesn't have landing gear bay doors

for comparison, Israel is taking 100kw laser, Iron Beam, into its inventory this year.

To my recollection, i have never seen any info on TF35000's first firing or the start of a prototype building. What we were told is that some early tests will be conducted in 2026. That doesn't mean a prototype. It will be a test article for early testing before committing to a prototype. So...

it feels weird to share the words of opposition leader as a source but he says he was told at TUSAŞ that KAAN will fly with indigenous engines in 2032-2033. Give it a watch. he pretty much nailed it. some factions of CHP are pretty dumb and have an inferiority complex that runs deep when it...

a quick reminder, the engines are not the only stranglehold the US have on KAAN. the aircraft's bulkheads are made by EBM machines, provided by an american company. I'm sure our shortsightedness will cause a roadblock there too. our brilliant leaders wanted to gain independent foreign policy...

how can we order their planes, knowing they don't even bat an eye for crippling our defense industry. don't order them and incur some future revenue losses for THY. big deal! but if you're still buying their stuff, they know they can treat you like shit and will never suffer any consequences. we...

The engine embargo was to be expected. The chances of us getting them were always slim. Now that it's certain, it puts first operational units of KAAN to 7 years away, to 2032, at earliest. So it'll be a long, painful road. In the mean time, our main focus should be getting TF6k/10k off the...

can you watch this video and appreciate how stupidly difficult advanced chip manufacturing actually is? landing a man on the moon is childsplay compared to this. it's essentially black magic. and the video is only about the lithography machine, not about the fab.

it's about chip design, not production. here you can listen to it where he directly answers that question. (timestamped)

these propaganda bots are puppeted by the same fingers. beware

this is wrong. you cannot have a LEO constellation that has more satellites passing over your region than other regions. what you can do, at most, is, like i said, launch your satellites to lower latitude(inclination) orbits so that you don't have to serve polar regions. but the satellites will...
