its not easier to test and develop an engine for kizilelma its just that the risk of losing of an airframe is more acceptable because there is no pilot but no one is going to buy 50 million dollar drone with half baked subsytems

Well they did have good relations with Motor Sich and bought Piaggio which has at least some experience in engines and produces parts for F135 engine.

Firstly som j and JSM are not in the same class as Taurus and scalp. Som j and JSM both weigh less than 600kg and Taurus an Scalp weigh more than a ton they also are faster and are better against mobile targets.

A lot of these projects (TF2000, Milden, Mugem...) have been under planning for some 20 years (TF2000= Turkish Frigate 2000) in one way or another. The issue was that they got delayed because of political and economical problems for instance I Class was originally designed with a lot of foreign...

Somewhat true but in the future the real long range radars for ballistic Defence will be alp500g (SEIRS) and alp600g (YIRAD) and these radar systems will be much better in detecting ballistic missiles than cenk 600n.

I don’t know if he’s just throwing things or if there are actual considerations?

Honestly 4 dedicated AAW DDG is enough if we can get 4-8 medium AAW frigates.

To be fair a billion dollars is still a good price compared to other ships. Greek fdi costs around 800 million per ship and arleigh Burke cost close to 2 billion I think only the South Koreans and Japanese are better than us even though they use American systems on their ships.

I think they would first order the replacement for the sold ships and the extra maybe after the 3 tf2000. But overall I don’t expect any more orders for tf2000 before 2029 but I would welcome 10 istifs for our navy.

Ain’t nobody going to buy that crap for one second except for those that already want this war to go on.

According to Akbaba their will be a additional order for 4 istifs.
