I think you might be overthinking this a little. Resident Evil has always had this undercurrent of dumb logic where there are these evil corporations constantly releasing monster-making viruses on population and there's absolutely zero regulation imposed and it's always like 1 or 2 undercover...

Steve Jobs had a Syrian father and a Swiss mother and was raised entirely in America in an adoptive Western family. His mother flat-out left his father in Syria and went to San Francisco where she gave birth to the boy and then gave him to Paul and Clara Jobs for adoption. His father and the...

The Merkava's flattened turret frame wouldn't fit well on a UGV like that. Similar to why American UGV prototypes don't look like the Abrams.

I don't dislike Qatar because of their association with Turkey, my dislike for them is mainly because of what I know about the country and my personal experiences with them. They could be enemies, neutral or irrelevant, I'd dislike them all the same. But I will admit that I was wrong about BMC...

Carriers don't usually travel alone into danger zones.

I do think TB2's are kind of overhyped (the real secret weapon is Turkish EW) but RIA Novosti is just...LMAO. They are still probably assmad about having Russian fighters get completely humiliated by Rafales in test-runs conducted in Egypt.

I don't mean to start sounding racist or anything but, um, a big part of it is their overall culture. They are not really brought up with any kind of stability or respect for rules, only respect for "might makes right". People act nice to them thinking that they are just being oppressed but no...

It was never a Turkish company, it was a Qatari company masquerading as a Turkish one. Which also explains their utter incompetence. There's a reason why oil-rich Gulf nations hire foreign contractors to build their stuff rather than handle it themselves.

Czech firearms are actually REALLY good and considered world-class in quality. The rest of their stuff is admittedly kinda subpar but if Turkish companies are smart, they'll utilize this opportunity to tap some valuable expertise from the Czech side regarding small-arms production. What I find...

Honest question, what the f**k have BMC been doing this entire time? Have they actually improved the Altay in like...any way whatsoever?

Zero chance of that happening. If you read the 2021 NATO Communique, 1) they are intending to fast-track Georgia and Ukraine's membership, process has been finally approved for both, 2) Article 5's limitations have been severely expanded where any individual member can call it in at any time and...

They don't have the infrastructure or the capability to maintain them. As it explains in the article, Iraq heavily relied on American contractors to keep their equipment up and running since there's a lack of experienced engineers that can perform those tasks among the Iraqi military.

As usual, when poor, little Armenia is in deep trouble, the big boys come to bail them out. $2.6 billion, sanctions on their opposition, getting weapons for free... Meanwhile, when we ask for even a bit, we immediately get hit with every criminal accusation under the sun and when we point out...

The only major thing that Pakistan really has in terms of weapons that Turkey could want is nuke technology. And that's the kind of thing that you make deals for under the table not above it.

There are no friends in politics, only common interests. Or in the case of the UAE, trying to kiss up to their competitors to get a winning hand since while they have the money, they clearly don't have the brains to use it well.

I wouldn't get too cocky yet. Turkish weapons' industry IS growing but it's still a fair bit away from being on the same level of quality. I mean, here in the US, Turkish weapons are currently at best usually synonymous with "affordable but it works" and at worst "cheap c**p that blows up in...

Turkey needs an alternative to HDP. HDP is known as the "Kurdish party", which is where their strong-point lies. Turkey needs to promote an anti-separatist, pro-Turkish Kurdish party. Ideally, there wouldn't be any need for a Kurdish party because wannabe separatists would've all f***ed off and...

No way in hell did he hold on for two years and then "succumb to his injuries". Someone in Hamburg finished the bastard off.

Polish firearms industry is pretty decent. Not Czech quality or anything but considered pretty solid.

A better question is why they didn't do this earlier. Blockading and starving your enemy is a time-honored tactic in warfare, terrorists would stop using tunnels virtually overnight if they knew that the Turkish army would simply collapse the entrances and leave them to suffocate to death in the...
