The NATO alliance is valuable if and only if it fits the USA needs and only USA needs. The second priority for NATO is western european interest like UK, France, Germany if it does not work against USA interest. At a far far lower priority, some eastern european countries could have some form of...

You can rest assured that there will more nuclear power plants after these. Most likely, these will be of Turkish designed based on the knowledge gained by these first reactors. The reason why we went with 3 differnt designs was to gain as much experience as possible since no one will give/sell...

Looking at relative sizes today one might conclude that Russia have been belligerent through history against Sweden but actual history show that Russia have never engaged in a war in current Swedish borders but only on Swedish colonies (Åland/Finland/Baltic countries/Russian territories). On the...

Is Taiwan Next? Unfortunately no, I'm afraid that the Turkish states will see the heat within the next 10 year if not earlier and no one in USA or EU will say a single word, even a token condemnation. Turkey really have step her game in strengthen these states.

No. The patent is owned by an individual or legal entity. If you have minority share then you will not be able to force the legal entity to transfer or give away any rights belonging to the company. If you (and your partners) own majority or controlling stakes then you are able to control the...

Yet an other excellent article by Oryx. https://www.oryxspioenkop.com/2022/02/american-duplicity-who-in-washington-is.html

Not directly Turkish engines but still relevant.

Rights to part of the profit and if they own significant shares they can place persons to the board. The board then decide the CEO, which then decide on operative actions. If you have minority shares, then you have no control or even internal information of the company. You don't simply get...

I was actually thinking Kırlangıç (Swallow) for Hürjet but I removed it.

Personally, I think the bird name should reflect the mission, so Eagle, a very large bird with mainly ground prey would be nice for a large bomber. Hawk, a semi-large bird with a mix of ground and air preys would be a nice name for a multi-role fighter. Falcon, a super fast and agile bird with...

First, we know that standard artillery shells lacks in range and accuracy as one would wish but that is by design, not technology as your own example for Excalibur shows. So, let us compare apples to apples. When you compare a ram-jet powered 155mm shell to a standard rocket artillery with...

Idea seem good idea at first glance but is in reality not very good for standard 155mm shells as it beats the whole idea of artillery shells, i.e. be cheap and effective. This solution is expensive, more complex than standard shells, most likely have no guidance and virtually no explosive to do...

What the fuck is wrong with these turcophbic people. Do all of them live in some parallel universe where logic is nowhere to find. Where do turks annihilate ANYONE. You cant even show a single image where a civilian was targeted deliberately while every other part including Syrian, American...

Typical turkophobic greek mentality not worth really responding to but I try with at least some of the more stupid parts. What is the problem of settling 2 million out of 5 million Syrians in Syria in on voluntary basis? How the fuck is that ethnic cleansing or why the fuck would that mean...

Is it surprising? Turkey took away a big part of their drone market but the real reason is simply, Turkey is the main power in ME which is threatening their criminal occupation.

Thanks for the update. Just for reference for everyone on how much this corresponds to; today we have about 0.5bcm of gas production which corresponds to 0.9% of our imports, 7bcm would correspond to about 15% of our imports. This should have very significant effect on Turkeys current account...

You know that you don't need ToT of everything you buy? You could get full or partial ToT for one type and just purchase for the rest. This way, you learn the basic technology from a simpler drone and get a good understanding on how the more advanced drones are built, operate and perform. You...

It is not the total number of drones which is unrealistic but the strategy to buy that many of the same type. It would have been more realistic to mix different classes to cover a larger set of missions. A mix of Anka, Aksungur and Akinci in various configurations would have been more realistic...

Please don't use a general newspaper journalist as some form of source, they are utterly non-technical on almost every subject you can think of. That sentence from Telegraph is simply dead wrong from a technical point of view. The delay from joystick to drone is very well defined, it is...

You are more or less saying the same thing, the difference is that you use 80kkm instead of my 72kkm as signal path, which gives a latency around 250ms. You are just doubling a well defined parameter like signal delay/ latency bcs you want human reaction time but that is not very well defined...
