24 Hurjets for 6 A400M 1 A400M costs roughly 160 million euros, so we are selling a single Hurjet for 40 million euros(43.5 million $). IMHO this is a good trade for us.

The ejection seat and engine are subsystem level. There are a lot of foreign-sourced items at the component level.

Turkiye might get immediate delivery of 6 of 7 Spanish A400Ms Germany is interested in the 7th aircraft.

Unless those choppers will also be used in civilian tasks(FYI they will be) If a helicopter without a civilian certification crashes when used for civilian tasks, you can sue responsible parties.

No helicopter will be delivered before the EASA certificate is officially awarded which is likely to happen in August but it is not certain.

Yes, that is true. Those companies sell us our own gold at international market price. This is also one of the privileges of Canadian companies, not ours. They pay %4.81 of the gold as an extraction fee but get it back through subsidies and tax cuts.

This means serious delay. He cited logistic chain problems. It seems we have an embargo problem. End of 2025 is basically 2026 there is no way to complete all the tests (kinematic tests, combat system tests like BURFIS, TOYGUN, KARAT etc, weapon integration and weapon tests) in 3 years to...

Typical American values? It looks like Marxist utopia values to me.

Really bad for us. Canadian companies pay %4.81 of the gold.

Polls show good results for whoever finances it. That is why when I try to get a picture of Turkish elections I use multiple polls from different companies and consider the polling company's track records.

Meanwhile Canada either owns, operates, or co-owns nearly all gold mines in Turkiye. 🤷‍♂️

Trump has donators and backers. Those guys pushed Vance as the VP. Trump wasn't on good terms with Vance. Even a monkey will win against Biden or Harris. Trump is not needed. It is like hitting 2 birds with a single stone. Vance will become the candidate and you can blame Democrats for the...

TAI is trying hard to conduct the first test flight of the second KAAN prototype by the end of 2024. The second prototype won't have combat systems at the first flight of the second prototype but those systems will be integrated as the tests continue. Combat system integration will be completed...

IMHO failed assassination might be related to a clique inside the Republican Party. I guess they wanted to eliminate Trump and push VP candidate Vance up. It seems the Democrat candidate will lose no matter who the Republicans nominate. Vance is a shady figure.

I have no concrete written source. This is what people told me when i spoke to people in the past. The number might not be exactly 624mm (it is what i remember) but i doubt it is anything higher than say 670-680mm because when i saw the engine mockup up close it was smaller than F-404(I have...

What is the fan diameter of TF-6000? I'm not talking about 3 dimensions which include auxiliary systems like oil tanks, gears, etc. As far as i know TF-6000 has a fan diameter of 624mm. For comparison, F-404 has a fan diameter of 890mm.

Why didn't the Secret Service secure the nearby rooftops before the rally? It is a basic procedure for such rallies.

Nope. It is related to the helicopter capture and transfer system.

There are no embargoes but there are delaying tactics for example when the Turkish side asks for something to change a week becomes a month. There are many German subsystems and components and they are being heavily tested. German side is taking really easy when it comes to make necessary...

According to President Erdoğan Germans are blocking machinery (probably related to propulsion) for Turkish frigates, turbines for the Akkuyu nuclear plant, and the Eurofighter deal. Germans are also slowing down the Reis class submarine project.
