India won't like that at all. India see Indian Ocean as their own backyard. Their navy has significantly improved its capabilities in recent years.

Looks like Maldives and India got into some serious beef. A New increasingly preferred combo for neutral countries. Türkiye for defense and China for development.

Maldives moves to replace India, inks deal with Turkey for drones to patrol high seas Maldives is among India’s key maritime neighbours & part of its ‘Neighbourhood First Policy’, but President Muizzu set a 15 March deadline for Indian military personnel to leave the island nation New...

These are way old. Has been shared multiple times before,

@Joe Shearer don't forget what you promised us. Because I am firmly waiting.....

Iirc, They said something like it would be finished by the end of 2024?

Looking good, really looking good. People can criticize and talk about the delays as much as they want, but this is a stunning view of a running Turkish tank engine that most of us did not thought of 10/15 years ago.

These 'Lol' are getting unnecessarily disrespectful. And no, I am not overrating Iranian air defence network. Just stating my opinion. They have shown some impressive technologies in recent years. I will assume they will be able to do their job until proven otherwise. Besides, I am yet to see...

Ah nope, judging by Ukraine war and others, a component air defence network would shoot down vast majority of subsonic cruise missiles. I mean, during 2018 Syria missile strike, even JASSM Got shot downed. Iran has a decent network of indeginous air defence systems. Which may put up a good fight.

They wouldn't dare, I think. But if American soldiers are dead (even if just a few) we better expect a significant escalation.

I don't understand what do you expect us to do to prove that we are 'awesome' like you? We have our own sovereign country and we have no territorial dispute with anybody. Only thing we need to do is to focus on economic development. That is good enough.

What are you insinuating about us? The way Soviets brutalized its former turkic territories....and China doing it right now with uyghurs...... Subcontinent's Muslims carved out their own countries despite being at one to five disadvantage.

@Sanchez @Kartal1 I have an observation that you may not agree with. But I think it has less to do with being Houthi or Irani system and more to do with the fact that these are Subsonic AShM. IMO, Even the much better ones like NSM, Exocet block III, Grabrial V or Atamaca won't fair much...

I suspect, Turkish leadership claim in wider Trukic world may be effective, but with other large muslims countries? I don't know much. I already can see, KSA, Egypt, Pakistan, Indonesia (and even BD) are being uncomfortable with additional Turkish 'leadership' posturing and too much 'main...

That is too much........

On surface, it may appears to be like that. But the thing is, you see, these Shia groups are ideologically driven entities under a leadership (Iran) whose end–goal is shaped by fundemental/radical belief system. Consequently, given the huge power asymmetry between Iran+its proxies and the West...

@Bogeyman @Kartal1 @Sanchez new missile strikes by USN overnight.

What do you guys think? Will Houthis try to respond meaningfully or they will go mute?

Yes, but iirc, General dynamics also run 1/2 massive US army production plants on US soil. That's right, they have plants in South Africa and elsewhere.
