Kubilay Yıldırım says production facilities and personnel that would be directed towards F-35 are now doing other stuff, civilian or indigenous military projects. Those are finite resources so this means some of it must be redirected. If KAAN gets sidelined even %1 I'm going to be royally pissed.

These conversations are getting really stale... Just saying We are now in a one-man system. Regular politics will not change this, because all the political channels are already tied into knots. AKP is president's personal fief. MHP is basically a MIT front organization. CHP is also controlled...

I think the latest improvement of US-Turkish relationship is due to Americans making a decision to "bribe" the Turkish state into non-agression towards Israel. I don't know if it will work as intended but it seems plausible. I also think the Hormuz situation will lead to US boots on Iran. The...

I would advise caution when listening to Colonel MacGregor. He is so pro-Russian 2 years ago I thought he was an actual Russian asset. Nowadays I think he just looks at it from a different perspective. But it is always good to take anything he says with a pinch of salt. The guy said Turkish...

The doomsayers always end the scenarios with us being hit hard. Then we are defeated and game concludes. But geopolitics never end if you are not genocided. Let's continue the brainstorm; Turkish republic is hit hard with 12 days war style air campaign. Economy collapses. Chaos in the streets...

I always wondered if towed submersible extra-mini USVs could be a part of something like this. You have a long cable that would send electricity and data, then the small swimming apparatus communicates with the missile, gets data from sattelites etc., has optical sensors for more small scale...

I think he has back issues, otherwise this is too funny to be real

Because immigration to EU is killing them. It doesn't even make sense, most immigrants to EU are economically unproductive and they take more than they contribute over their lifetimes, they are overrepresented in all kinds of crime and second or third generation immigrants are consistently less...

I envisioned something like some unmanned mini-subs that carry 4-6 of those but I honestly have no idea if it would be worth the trouble. Maybe on a USV it would make more sense. Just slap a launcher on top, the range is plenty enough.

Quick question, how hard is it to launch this thing from a submarine?

You know what, this actually makes sense. EF is not optimized for threats from Iran, which is what they actually have to prepare for. They might need something like a Korkut + Hisar + Radars + ISR. The only thing they would actually need and we don't have is anti ballistic missile capability...

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

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...
