    TR Air-Force TF-X KAAN Fighter Jet

    I think Koreans should be counted but they have a subsystem dependency problem (engines afaik). They don't really seem to mind though.

    TR Propulsion Systems

    Seems my theory is somewhat real. It's an f110 clone, or it's an honest to god f110. There was some chatter on the forum about our lack of engines and how we would get over it if Americans imposed an embargo. I remember people saying unlicensed f110 production would be beyond the pale. This...

    Sudan Coup/Civil War

    Certified dış mihrak moment. Seriously though is this even avoidable? Like at all?

    TR Propulsion Systems

    Stop being condescending. My theory is as soon as TEI got the metallurgical (and other) know how to completely reverse engineer f110, they had some people move to MSB ARGE, kept it small and moving. If this theory is true, a lot of the engine parts can be simply requisitioned from Air Force...

    TR Propulsion Systems

    Guys. I have a theory. This engine is an f110 clone with slight differences. It does not have 42k lbf thrust, maybe 30-36k. The reason it was built outside of TEI is to throw off Americans/for plausible deniability. This is basically KAAN's insurance. And this is my theory.

    TR Propulsion Systems

    I don't think votes are the motivator because they don't need anything extra against such inept opposition. I have a glimmer of hope that this somehow turns out to be something we can salvage.

    TR Missile & Smart Munition Programs

    For 100m$? Not worth it. This is an important part of latent nuclear capability I think. Doesn't make sense otherwise.

    Live Conflict Israel-US vs Iran War (2026)

    My honest assessment is that this operation was really rushed. Militarily, the buildup was good. Bombing campaign was tactically successful (except for the kids school). It seems the administration 'glitched' into ignoring the Iranian capability to close the strait, and this is the root of the...

    Live Conflict Israel-US vs Iran War (2026)

    Sucks to be my ignorant ass lmao But I stand by my point; we should be working on a resilient short range distributed air defense system that can be used to "switch" to asymmetrical air defense when it's needed. This can bring forth a lot of new possibilities/opportunities as well as being a...

    Live Conflict Israel-US vs Iran War (2026)

    Coming back to the technical aspects of this war, this is something I did not expect. A multispectral camera based SHORAD complex. The thought of Aselsan or Roketsan getting into this is beyond exciting. Just think of the ways they would come up with. I can just picture it: network centric, AI...

    Live Conflict Israel-US vs Iran War (2026)

    I think some people who are watching the events unfold are skipping over a significant shift in Iranian power structure: Bibi and his puppy decimated the geriatric leadersip in Iran. All that is left is younger, more energetic, more resourceful and much more radical cadres of IRGC. To the...

    Live Conflict Israel-US vs Iran War (2026)

    I agree but with the caveat that US operations have been predominantly stand-off strikes and in-and-out type bombings AFAIK. I still don't think Iranian air defence would amount to much but there is a chance that we might see a little more pushback.

    Live Conflict Pakistan - Afghanistan Conflict(2026)

    In English, it mainly refers to the prostelyzation of wahhabi Islam in the vast majority of cases. I have never seen it used in any other context and I consume a lot of content on this topic. Think of the German word 'blitz'; it has a singular and very specific meaning in English.

    TR Air-Force TF-X KAAN Fighter Jet

    As far as I know, Saudis had to stop their moderately successful bombing campaign against Houthis a few years back because they westoids imposed a shadow embargo on air to land munitions. If their minds are changed on these topics, this is probably the catalyst. Which means even if they choose...

    Live Conflict Israel-US vs Iran War (2026)

    This scenario is built on the premise that Iran falls in a very specific fashion. But I agree with you in that a Western aligned Iran would be a complete menace.
