    TR Air-Force TF-X KAAN Fighter Jet

    I think we will have to agree to disagree. There is a a lot there that is mentioned. No one sits down re negotiating over a provisional sale if there weren’t problems there. As I have said let us agree to disagree.

    TR Air-Force TF-X KAAN Fighter Jet

    As far as I can see the highlighted points do add a new perspective. Demiroglu and SSB have been blowing the trumpet that the 48 planes sale was a done deal. Well according to news coming in, it is not. In fact unless the Turkish side can give unequivocally the unquestionable proof that the...

    TR Sensors and Detector Programs

    MİLSAR is not explicitly described as a PESA (Passive Electronically Scanned Array) radar. Instead, it is defined as a Ku-band Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR) and Moving Target Indication (MTI) radar. MILSAR is also not an Aesa Radar. Although Aesa radars have SAR capability to increase their...
