On the contrary, UK is increasing military spending.

No! You were not using the whole statement. That is what I don’t like. If you omit those highlighted words then it loses the real meaning. You can at least be man enough to accept that you made a mistake.

Mate, get your facts right! Read what is written carefully again please. It says the deal is worth up to 8bn. In other words Not necessarily 8bn in total. If it says worth; then you may not necessarily pay that amount at the end of the deal. If it says up to , then there is a leeway in the...

https://militarywatchmagazine.com/article/qatar-trying-to-sell-off-eurofighters-just-three-years-after-they-arrived-why-is-turkey-interested According to this news, Qatar is trying to off load all 24 Typhoons in it's inventory. We should either forget Oman's planes or add these to our purchase...

Happy republic day to all Turkish members. Ne mutlu Türküm diyene. (How happy is the one who says I am a Turk)

You can never rely on any country in general. The friendship between countries depend on mutual advantages. Our close relations with Great Britain before the WW1 (remember war of Crimea) helped us to order those 2 ships in 1911 and in 1914. GB empire wanted an Ottoman Empire that was on their...

Bro, please forget about this fixation about tranche numbers. Yes, as the tranche numbers increase the development level increases too. But higher tranche numbers don’t necessarily denote a better performing or higher technology plane. UK is producing a Typhoon today that is based on an...

My mistake! Should have read it more carefully. KTF5500, surely for a UAV. As you mention if mature enough the prototype UAV should be capable to accommodate the prototype engine too.

ECRS-MK1 is actually built on the basic ECRS-MK0. There isn’t much difference between the two. But the MK1 has more developed T/R modules that allows it to be cooler and improve in performance. Electronic Attack facility is there. It allows for more intricate retrofitted EW and SAR capability...

Why shouldn’t they? KF21 is in a fairly mature state already as far as prototype testing goes. Turkiye is envisaging flying TF35000 on KAAN prototypes by 2028. How was EJ200 flown on Typhoons you reckon? First technology demonstrator flight was made in 1986. Then Typhoon proper flew in 1994...

Tusas, after such a long break, at their own admission, had lost most of their engineering staff and expertise that they had accumulated during F16 project. They needed new blood and experts to include in the team that was to develop KAAN. If Tusas went on the international job market and tried...

Keir Starmer says: “8billion pounds worth of work for the UK.“ For the provision of Typhoons He doesn’t say Turkiye is paying 8billion pounds for 20 planes. The cost breakdown will come in to open in the end. There will be spares, Engines and their spares, munitions like Meteors. Ground...

You have it here! Still in process of moving posts. When completed this will be the new thread.

BAE site claims that starting from 2028 they want to be in a position to produce Typhoons with the new ECRS-MK2 radar. “The UK’s commitment to these long-lead packages in support of series production reflects the growing confidence in the progress being made by UK Industry in developing this...

Atilla77 said: SavunmaSanayiST claims domestic munitions will be integrated on the acquired Eurofighters “Our munitions capable of being integrated to Typhoons” is a statement not quite what is meant in the sense you are describing. Normally if you want your munitions to be integrated, you...
