    TR Altay Main Battle Tank & Related Programs

    Well, as it happens, there no such thing as idea scenario for Tank warfare. Once the enemy dug in and prepared the defensive line, the chances for a successful blitzkrieg becomes very very slim in today’s warfare. You can't avoid the necessary attrition.

    TR TF-X KAAN Fighter Jet

    Actually, F-35 has 3x generator each with 80kw output. But one of them is emergency. So it doesn't run. Hence, the sustained output is 160kw. While for F-22 it has two generator each with 65kw output. Hence, in total it is 130kw.

    I wonder how much longer will it take for MRFA program to be realised. Also, I read somewhere they may cut the numbers to 72 or something, and instead buy more Tejas. Do you think it would be a good idea?

    @Anmdt how the heck 2500 ton diesel electric submarine cost $1.5 billion? almost as much as state of art Suffren class SSN! I mean, no similar SSK is costing that much. Whether it is Japanese Teigei or Spanish S-80+.

    First ignition to flight took 3 years for TS-1400. Given this is also first of its kind for Türkiye, it is likely to take the same.

    I think German Skynex would be critical to defend those upcoming F-16s against these kind of 'effectors'. Otherwise, they may very well share the same fate.
