Finally someone caught Havasoj in air.

This is untrue. We have footage of Emirati fighters in air at night refueling armed with full A2A loadouts, Qatari fighters flying with their transponders on and written accounts of officials talking about interceptions. We only have a handful of drones and rockets hitting these countries...

It can't, process is pretty apparent. Gazap is an Mk-84 sized 1 ton bomb; there's nothing "terrifying" about it.

It's not a radar, it's a satcom radome at 5th Fleet headquarters in Bahrain and the "damaged" image is AI. We only have the video of the impact. The radar Iranians claim they destroyed in Qatar and the radar Al Jazeera supposedly got confirmation from Qatari army is different, it's a huge...

Satcom housing.

They are aiming to increase facilities to allow 30 jets per year; but current orderbook until 2028 is 24 aircraft. Good that they recognize their lack of current access and maintenance hubs in continental US. If Piaggio is to thrive, they need the US market. "Baykar Piaggio Aerospace's budget...

I'm yet to receive a retort to these points I made last year.

Meh. I have my strong doubts that A400M can carry components of a S400 battery. Not just the dimensions but by weight as well. Regardless that's at least 8 sorties without considering the missile loads. These are huge 8x8 vehicles, lightest of which weight 30-35 tons. For example for the latest...

ISIS was so evil that literally every country on earth foregone their problems and started working together to kill them. Stop with this. Noone cares about their videos or propaganda. "Group lies on their propaganda piece" is not a high bar to cross for any terror group.

It hit us immensely because we're part of the same ecosystem; made it 10x harder for any company to get export licenses to Turkey; and basically burned SSB. China was never that connected; but all this was part of separating Chinese firms from having access to west for exports, which did mainly...

US already sanctioned China for its dealings with Russia re Su-35s and S400s in 2018.

Great write up. Wholly agree that it's basically a a shoe-in; adding something it was not supposed to have; but pretty good start in less than a year. I don't know how much of this Anadolu will be able to accommodate; but fares good for the future iteration aboard MUGEM; which is no doubt being...

After 7 years, first 8x8 IFV(equipped with 25mm Nefer turret) of the gendarme was finally delivered. 4 more will follow. Ironically, gendarme is now the first service in Turkey to incur a 8x8 IFV into service. Which is not very surprising, as they were testing Arma 8x8 a whole decade ago. They...

Their heels are burning because world is burning and they need jets yesterday. I think they are reaching at any possible straw they can find now that they have political backing from the gov and the political acceptance from the consortium for the buy

And now the new claim is that new number will be 56. All 24 Qatari ones to be received "within a year". 20 new builds, 24 Qatari, 12 Omani. Omani ones to be modernized and delivered from 2028. Same piece also claims first new builds will be delivered from 2028; but Güler in december had said...
