I was expecting something crazy like 150+ dead. They came in well-prepared and the guy was well trained, the way he holds the gun. The girl was inexperienced. There is still one more guy with hostages.

This project is a waste of money and resources (it's just a bigger TCG Anadolu). If the government is serious about this, then it needs to take a procedural approach. Security competitors like France/India in the Indian Ocean or the Mediterranean will have superior carrier capabilities when this...

If they change the design/structure will it be more difficult to upgrade from older Blocks to more modern blocks with TF35000 in the future? - New engine would have to be very similar in dimensions to F110?

Do we think the rear-end design of the Kaan will change, or is it final after the critical design review finishes? Rafale started with 2 F404 engines then later switched to 2 M88 Engines, as you can see the rear tail has changed. Going from F110 to TF35000?

Maybe they should combine the IRST and EOTS at the bottom like the F-35 for a cleaner/compact look although it looks very unique. IRST is a sensor that is better on top anyway as it provides a better forward field of view. SU-57 has IRST at the nose too. I wonder why the Americans haven't done it?

F-22 nose Kaan nose: Kaan doesn't look very proportional, nose is too long. Kaan needs a nosejob. Maybe some changes to the fuselage too. I think P1 prototype will be different come 2025.

Can someone tell me why it looks very weird from this angle? Is the nose too long, it looks kind of deformed? I remember someone saying they were going to make the nose shorter or something.

Will they not buy the 40 F16V from USA? Will they make a switch to 40 Eurofighter T4?

It's just a bigger TCG Anadolu. It adds no new capability to the Turkish Navy whatsoever. Waste of time and money.

I bet China is already working on baby factories like this to fix their demographics. We need to start looking into it as well.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Artificial_womb#:~:text=An%20artificial%20womb%20or%20artificial,organ%2C%20would%20have%20many%20applications. None of the incentives works, from money to housing, South Korea spent $150 billion to help childbearing costs. The solution in the future is going to be...

New Chinese 2D TVC engine (model) displayed at Zhuhai Defence Expo 2022 https://media.giphy.com/media/v1.Y2lkPTc5MGI3NjExMGFmbzFoem8zemxyMjltNzN4dGI1bGhoeTF6dnF1bDZ2ODNnbzd0MyZlcD12MV9pbnRlcm5hbF9naWZfYnlfaWQmY3Q9Zw/dRuplOB9J3vX9XQDBk/giphy.gif It isn't that difficult to build these 2D...

Isn't it a better idea to go for 2D TVC? Considering it will be cheaper to develop and hide the IR signature than 3D TVC? If TurAF is focusing on BVR and using Kaan as a deep strike asset, isn't stealth > maneuverability? Is Kaan's airframe suitable for 2D nozzle like the one on the F-22?

I know there will be TVC on the TF-35000 but is the nozzle structure going evolve into the F119 nozzle structure? Does 2D TVC have any advantage over 3D TVC in maneuverability?

Good thing we're not in the EU and not integrated into the Single Market then.. I remember a video on YouTube, a Greek economics Professor talking about how rosy and beautiful it is for a country to enter EU single market, for example, an instant boost of 2%-5% in GDP, but also how devastating...

Forget the European Army, the EU probably won't exist in the next 10-20 years. Almost all European countries have stagnant economies and faltering demographics. And the immigrants that they have brought in are not accepted by the natives and don't assimilate. And they have broken the social...

Does anybody know if Milden will have VLS?

In Germany, FDP is ok with it, SPD is neutral and the Greens are against it. That woman, the Foreign Minister, Annalena Baerbock, is part of the Greens, and is very against it. They are trying to convince her. Germans love shooting themselves in the foot. Could you imagine embargoing a country...

Are you saying they could retrofit an AC conventionally powered to nuclear powered? I feel like that's a pipe dream. When they were designing this, you can tell they got inspired by British ACs, but this project is still a big waste of money unless we can get F35Bs which won't happen.

This aircraft carrier is just a bigger TCG Anadolu, we don't need it. This aircraft carrier project is not worth it. Not worth it, unless you're going for nuclear propulsion (CATOBAR). Because you will have problems with EMALS (Electro-Magnetic Aircraft Launch System). And if you use steam...
