Why Iran attacks Fujairah but spares Sohar (and the risks ahead for Oman) The Breakdown: Fujairah (UAE) is a target: The UAE is a direct geopolitical rival to Iran and a close Western ally. Fujairah hosts a major pipeline built specifically to bypass the Strait of Hormuz. By targeting this...

If you're looking at alternatives to get around the Strait of Hormuz given the current situation, there are basically two main ways to look at it: the temporary shipping corridors currently being coordinated, and the existing overland energy infrastructure. For actual shipping, the IMO and...

If the “fitted for but not with” approach is no longer considered suitable due to the increasing level of risk, and Turkish Navy ships are expected to be delivered with their weapons fully fitted, then I see another issue that needs to be addressed. Given the growing risk of conflict, there...

I really don't know ideal weight of frigate for Turkish Navy however making larger and empty frigates than required would be a different strategy. They could reserve spaces for VLS and radars. AFAIK German frigates have less VLS than planned. Any time they could add VLS.

Pakistan has already have problems with Iran , that's why Iran and India are ( used to be 😬) allies. IMO Pakistan will increase presence of troops in KSA. Yemen is most crowded nation in Gulf, 40 million population. KSA is really lack of troops.

I counted 10 rounds in a second 😁 Who doesn't believe can check it😁 60 second x 10: 600 rounds per minute.

The idea behind latest Gürz system might be that: the previous Gürz had 4 radars so don't waste them and we must add some Bozdoğan missiles. Then next problem occurs , current radars not capable for mid range. So need to make radar arrays bigger.

Revolver cannon also does! Let's wish I am wrong about mechanism. it is revolver cannon? Can someone count rate of fire?😅 Look this is good! https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rheinmetall_Sea_Snake_30_mm Smash 300 25mm appears to be for USV. Longer video Edit: although it is not revolver cannon...

Unfortunately it is not a mini Gökdeniz since it is a chain gun not a revolver cannon so it has low rate of fire . Are Just low speed Kamikaze drones Naval threats for a warship? Edit: it is revolver cannon? Can someone count rate of fire?😅

If one F-16 costs 500 million USD in long term, why not?, it is highly possible. Of course it is just for Turkish Air Force not for foreigners.

I don't want sound against it but this truck mounted - 35mm ciws + SHORAD - platform is really necessary? I don't think 35 CIWS could fire on move. If this platform for security of strategic assets, korkut has other option. You can not secure a strategic factory just with one CIWS. Need to...

Yes there is no data link that's why you need to check seekers engagement. Otherwise how you could connect information from radar with missiles. First AESA radars detects target. But SUNGUR is standard limited MANPADS missiles as you send. You can not send target information to SUNGUR. SUNGUR...

Appreciate. Absolutely why not. I always wondered how much size effect on total cost. 5500 ton frigate for additional 15 percentage of costs. Sounds interesting 🤔

Twitter link doesn't show content Burch air defense turret launching SUNGUR SAM. Great platform. Notice how engaging launcher. The missile canister's cover opens. This is how they test whether the seeker head can detect IR signals, similar to the Mistral/SINBAD naval launcher. Lock on...
