Transfer to navy ownership, "commissioning". Program aim is to deliver them to the navy.

İzmir and İzmit's fitting out is going nicely. Looks like on the mast, only the Cenk radars are missing. For İzmir, 2026H1 is aimed, for İzmit it should be 2026H2 or early 2027 with İçel to follow by late 2027. This seems to fit the 36 months program that was signed in January 2023.

They've been working on a revolver type 35mm, similar to KDG. Some of the weapon systems showcased over the years require the smaller footprint of the revolver to exist. Non surprisingly, all those systems also went nowhere, because they have no guns as MKE is yet to show it.

Fidan on live, mentioned Qatari EF transfers going forward smoothly.

Suffice to say there will be more than one Gezgin. It can't be air, ground and surface launched at the same time, that's a waste of resources.

Maybe they already did, we don't know. We have no idea of the details of the multi billion deals they signed in the last 3 years. Seeing Gürz as well as Arma Korkut and Ejder Korkut on parades must mean something.

Keep the damn calm. There will be no speculation over people's lives.

It isn't. That gentlemen's agreement was known and publicly mentioned for nearly a decade.

Indonesia deal specifically mentions the installation of the local engines.

Time really flies. Rest in peace to heroes.
