    TR Casual Discussion Çay Bahçesi

    There was a massive criticism in BD when evolution was included in school textbooks last year. Many MPs, important peoples demanded the removal of Evolution theory. Some said, 'as Muslims we are children of Adam not Monkeys'. Only porblem was, school textbook never said Human evolved from...

    TR Sensors and Detector Programs

    Those are slightly two different Band though. The higher the frequency the shorter the range afaik. Numbers of tracks is good for chenk but I am a bit disappointed with fighter detection range being 160km only. (Chances are, against a 1m RCS target. I expected 250-300km detection range)

    So, Syrian refugees are responsible for Germany's economic & industrial slowdown? Hmm.....sounds about right.

    TR TF-X KAAN Fighter Jet

    Single engine TFX would carry the same risk as 2 engine KAAN. I.g. F35 isn't any less sophisticated than F-22. Unless Turkey want to develop a very much downgraded version. Then it won't be proper 5th gen anymore. And some countries do have alternative. Pakistan is planning to induct J-35...

    They didn't. Spain kept it even after the deployment period ended. Italy deployed a new system. German, dutch & US Patriot deployment period ended. (All of it was predermined) They could have extended the deployment like Spain but they didn't because they had different threat assessment...

    What @Anmdt thinks about it? Is a non-catabor carrier really worth the effort and resources for Turkish strategic context?

    In short to medium term Turkish security is imbedded in NATO. (Specially, with USA & UK) Maybe in the long term when Indonesia, Malaysia & BD becomes developed (and with increasing trade, security & industrial cooperations) we may be able to throw our economic and diplomatic weight behind...

    What kind of insult is this? Burkina Faso's economy is $21 billions while Bangladesh has an economy of $450 billions. If Burkina Faso buys 40 KAAN, BD will order 900 KAAN at least. Get your facts straight buddy. In fact, we may round off and buy 1000 KAAN in total.

    Obviously, it is not in this decade. In 2030s BD's economy set to grow substantially. (If we can keep the same rate of last two decades.) In the end it will depend on various factors, from geopolitical outlook to budgetary capability.

    Iraqi army was neither well trained nor well armed by any modern standard. Only thing they had was numbers.

    I am not sure about anything definitive related to KAAN purchase. I mean, It is still a decade away from maturing. If aything was offered in the name of Joint development, it was more like, taking pre-orders. About other purchases, in recent times it includes 100+ Cobra-ii, 1x Regiment TIGER...

    Chances are, none of it would have happened actually. That is not what Nuke does, otherwise Pakistan itself would have solved its refugee problems & territorial dispute. What if Türkiye had Nuke today? Nobody in their right mind will think about using Nukes over a fight on Agean or Eastern Med...

    I hope this isn't the cost of Temel Kotil's over enthusiasm. Or somebody messed up at higher management level. (From SSB?) With so many vital projects running simultaneously in all domains, efficient management of resource & priorities is important than ever.

    Oh yes, those bragging sounded weird to my ear also. And I agree, it is more like one sided TT. Pakistan doesn't have anything to offer to Türkiye in this regard.

    Ustad, it is a bit complicated than that. FAAZ-2 is largely a further development of Denel's Marlin. which has been test fired initially. So, the program is not completly out of besis.

    If so, then I guess this is a bad news for BD.🤣 Chief of air staff stated we will procure 5th gen fighter in the future. Thus, alternatively, We need to develop much closer alignment to USA or PRC to get the F-35 or J-35 in the next decade. Or maybe, buy Eurofighter for MRCA and then built on...

    I know, I have the same problem. Always put your safety first. Anyway, I gone through carefully each by each about possible immediate future purchases that can be sourced from India. The thing is there is not much India can offer. For example, Frigate program & MRCA. India doesn't have any...

    For that Ukraine have to prove they can be trusted with the full security of KAAN. Right now there is a massive systematic corruption where many of the western weapon systems & parts ended up on black markets. (Despite, Ukrainian armed force being in desperate need of them)
