There is IDEF 2025 this year. I think we will see big push for FPVs and other UAS. Plus companies like Baykar could reveal brand new platforms like they did with Kemankes.

Lack of development of smaller class UAS while we are one of the leading countries in MALE, HALE UAS is worthy case study on its own. Baykar is developing Kalkan STOL and Kemankes family. TAI is developing Simsek family. STM yet to reveal its FPV UAV. KARGI should have been given to Aselsan at...

There needs to be a R&D unit to actively research potential threats and develops prototypes to test it against active platforms. As an example, we should have had already developed Iranian Missile 358 style missile and tested against TB2, Akinci, T129 and so on. Baykar UAVs are one of the most...

Shouldn't strategic facilities be located somewhere in inner Anatolia with strategic depth. That could take advantage of layered air defence network. Having factory by the sea shore makes it easier to sabotage including by "non-state" actors. Not to forget lack of logistical network, especially...

UBAS (Aircraft Independent Firing System) was also integrated as a plug and play solution to Azerbaijani SU-25s, giving capability to use modern munitions such as SOM. I hope we can actively export this solution especially for Soviet/Russian origin aircraft. It can be a boost to munition sales.

GIS (Geographical Information System) pods probably most unrecognized yet one of the most important capability of UAVs. Baykar had a another company focused on rapid mapping capabilities. Baykar, in fact, can compete with some of the mapping companies like Maxar. I think we can assert...

Just to name few soft power leverages over France: Turkish Airlines, Cargo Turkish Construction Firms, flexibility of Turkish firms in general Democratization of defense products Turkish Schools, Maarif Foundation Tika, Turkish Hospitals, Health Tourism

I've been brainstorming about how will manned helicopter roadmap will/could develop with the recent developments. I wanted to make an account to share it. T-625 enters service with LHTEC engines and later with TS1400. Navalized T-625 in development. Maybe TS1400 military variant in...
