You can hear them getting told that recording is not allowed in the video of the landing; it is infuriating that they not only ignored orders but also posted that online. I get that they are excited and want to share this moment with everyone (after all this is a big and amazing thing), but...

You're right. Sorry, my bad.

Both pipelines are clearly going through Turkish territory, one on land and the other through Turkey's waters. The only way around Turkish territory is through Russian territorial waters, towards Ukrainian waters. so i fail to see how this isn't a win for turkey.

Would such a system lead to reusable rocket technology for space missions?

That was mostly because of the protestant reformation it was found that people who had a holy book in their own language were more likely to learn to read. this is why it was the religion that pushed science along. One of the main reasons why the Ottoman population was so illiterate was due to...

This shows that Hamas killed one Turkish citizen and potentially kidnapped the other, Türkiye should send any aid to any one that harms Turks.

The West is busy with the Israel-Palestine conflict so they do not care what's happening in Syria. what I find to be more of a sign is that that opperations have stopped is that the Turkish news stopped covering it and Erdogan has begun to talk about two-state solutions thus showing that he is...

Looks like Türkiye's economy is finally starting to recover and is expected to do so by 2026.

I'm not saying to replace every ship in the navy, what I'm saying is to use MDUSV to enhance the number of ships. people here are complaining that Türkiye needs more ships, and the current destroyers are too expensive and too few in number. the solution I brought up is a way for Türkiye to have...

well, the least he could do is keep up the air campaign against the YPG or at least try to stop Assad from destroying everything in Idlib it doesn't look good for Türkiye when it does nothing Assad destroys everything there.

I'm starting to think that Erdogan is trying to use the conflict to distract from the fact that the air campaign against the YPG has slowed down if not stopped, all the while Assad bombs the shit out of Idlib. Erdogan needs to use this as an opportunity to carry out a land operation in Syria...

Wasn't Idlib largely controlled by HTS? Also is the air campaign still ongoing against the YPG?

I guess this means that the relationship between Türkiye and Saudi Arabia is advancing since they seem to be willing to do military exercises with each other, crazy to think that the two were against each other only two years ago.

If you want numbers and to be cost-effective then rather than an Ada class corvette which costs $250 million per ship you are better off going with MDUSV like Sea Hunter as it costs $35.5 million. That way you get a much larger size fleet, which can have its own advantage, not to mention crew...

This may be the first time this has happened in Eastern Libya, I'm guessing the flood has weakened the Benghazi government's control.

The main argument against him is that the USVs are too small, but the US has created a new class of USVs called the Medium Displacement Unmanned Surface Vehicle (MDUSV). The MDUSV that the US developed is called Sea Hunter the Chinese have already made their own copy of it. The Sea Hunter...

I honestly thought that from the very start, the plan was to use USVs to make up for the lack of additional air defence frigates and create a fleet of expensive large ships defended by a fleet of much smaller cheaper USVs thus creating a cheap yet effective carrier group.

Couldn't Türkiye use the USV as a force multiplier and increase the defensive capabilities of the TCG-Anadolu and TF2000? By having the USV act as the first line of defence, the TCG-Anadolu and TF2000 have greater air-defence capabilities and a more difficult-to-penetrate solid self-defence...

Does Türkiye get any technology transfer from this project? if not then this entire thing has no benefits for Türkiye since the power plant will not help Türkiye become energy-independent.

I wonder would it be possible for Türkiye to use the current disruption in the Russian-EU oil trade to build up its own oil refining industry. Türkiye's oil refining industry is sadly comically small since it only produces 735 thousand barrels daily. In contrast, Greece produced 528 thousand...
