Room for 2 helicopters in hangar, was wondering about that

Yes, not every single research has useful output at the end of the day, but that's not the point, you gotta build a body of research, and you never know when something may end up being useful, if this isn't applicable for UAV, it may find an entirely other industrial use

They are also designed for quad pack, so eventually when quad pack hissar arrives, even if it takes like 5 years or so, these ships will be serving long years so they will be quite well balanced, in time

It's really the radars and weapons that increase the price

Getting tired at 70 min mark and getting scored at back to back is our classic move

Bit off-topic but I sure do hope cooperation on defense industry is only the start of much closer relationship between Turkey and Algeria. I have discovered some stuff dating back to 1800s about invasion of France and treatment of local populace, like forcibly divorcing Turkish and Algerian...

Also need to consider future, more advanced threats in the ocean. Having more vls would give room for future developments of defensive armaments, like patriot pac 3 mse being adapted to MK41

Not a good time to be skimping on VLS cells. Our ongoing TF2000 destroyer design of similar size was updated to 96 from 64 VLS after the observations of Red Sea situation

Oh no, TF2000 first hull shouldn't wait Istif, hopefully we can start construction before 2025.

So all I class may be delivered by 2028? That's nice

I remember hearing Mahmut Akşit in some interview talking about interest

Once TEI starts selling serial production engines, especially TS1400 either on platform or by itself, particularly for export, and starts to solidify its revenue stream, I imagine it will have much easier time with projects.

Well TB3 is slow and Anadolu isn't really an AC so don't think it would make sense to design it with lots of serial sorties doing bombardment. If you calculate the max number or weight of payload delivered per hour with repeated sorties, it's never gonna get close to real fighters from AC. Would...

Well the good thing is TB3 can fly for a long while so if just a couple can take off, they won't have to land for a long while, simplifying the operation. Less frequent take off and landing, fewer accidents

Gökdeniz really became a hit and a strong competitor in its class, I'm glad. It will basically be installed on all new warships of our navy of a certain size and it gives me confidence about survivability of our fleet.

TEI is very important for one thing many of our other companies have not been able to: it has become an indispensable part of GE's and industry's supply chain. That integration has afforded many technologies we would have not been able to easily get otherwise and this still continues to give is...

I mean first block of KE doesn't have to do everything. If it does the same stuff TB2 does but fly faster and carry higher payload, and have higher survivability, that alone is a great capability. Once you add radar with sar and a2a capabilities alongside some a2a missiles, it's gonna be a...

Anka should already be 100+ going by tail numbers.

Yes but we need more international awareness, we can't just rely on others.
