You’re making a good point. However, one more aspect has to be considered and that is Turkey’s current customer base. Selling to mid and low income countries naturally caps the price potential. If Turkey can start selling to developed countries then a price premium can be commanded. I remember...

Brother, let's be consistent. Let us remove Indonesia for now and add it when there are news. Otherwise the line between actual vs. expectations might get blurred.

I am pretty sure the tweet was about Malaysia, my friend.

avtually, they write that after recent investments they can now produce from 12.7mm to 105mm

Wasn't that Malaysia?

Yeah, CATS' production rate is 6 month. At least they should triple it to 18 a month for a total of 216 a year (covering 43% of TB2s). Baykar producing 1.5 TB2s a day is maniac. That is $3.5bn in revenue from TB2 alone in 2023. Adding Akinci, DIHA, Mini revenue on top the total revenue could be...

That is a crazy number

Sorry, I don't understand Turkish. Is he saying that they will produce 500 in 2023 or that by the end of 2023, 500 TB2s will have been produced?

I think you misunderstood the comment. I think he stated that they have produced 500 TB2s and are planning to produce 240 next year. on Akinci, 40 would be the accumulated total number at the end of next year. Correct me if I am mistaken, but please double check your source.

What is the timeline for the MLU? When are each of the 4 ships expected to be back in service?

According to Bloomberg, Romania is planning to buy UCAVs worth $300 millions from Turkey. This could be around 40 TB2 (If they are intending to buy TB2)

Could we get surprised with a test flight in a few months?

Wow a beauty from this angle

Iron Dome was specifically developed to engage such threats. Thus, economics was very important. A Tamir missile costs 100k. Hisar and Siper will be too expensive to use against artillery shells. Another low cost system need to be developed

My mistake @MADDOG @Windchime. Thanks for providing clarification.

It has ALWAYS been officially communicated to be 2025. 2026 has never been a topic at least publicly

They are too expensive to be used against artillery rockets.
