It is a new Turkish military every time there is a new challenge. New weapons capabilities have been gained since the last time we fought. We did not have Turkish made air defences the last time but we do have Hisars now for example. We have the Akıncı as another example. 1000 HGK-82 in the...

Scare the enemy away by showing your intentions. Conwince them to withdraw. We only want to secure the 30km wide strip along our border. If they leave the area without fighting it would be best.

Operation has already started and it includes giving the opponents the opportunity to withdraw peacefully.

What makes you think it is not?

While Hürjet is a valuable asset with its carrier landing capability it is not alone either. Kızılelma will come before Hürjet and Hürjet's capability will not be the first and certainly not the only one. This fact lessens its critical value for the Turkish military. Therefore an engine sanction...

We may need bomber size power projection where we need to deploy to medium distances like parts of Africa or Central Asia in short order.

For the future: bomber, tanker, cargo, passenger planes can be made using the engines made for the TFX. 4 TFX engines can make any plane you want. We have all the infrastructure and people to make those planes.

If you are making more than just enough there is a good chance that they will be enough. There is also move towards making city building collect water that falls on them. The more the collector the safer. Rains will fall and Türkiye will have its buckets to fill. Reforestation is also on the...

We want to be in Ukraine preemptively and not let Ukraine invite NATO in their land. It would be a strategic move for Türkiye if Baykar set up shop in Ukraine and command a good chunk of the fighter drone market, possibly all of it.

7 years of scarcity upon Europe would make them friendlier towards Türkiye. We don't want an exodus of pensioner refugees crossing Greek borders into Türkiye though. Good thing we are building enough dams to hold the water, way to go Türkiye.

Remind me please.

Akıncı is not mentioned in the post but referring to its size category a similar production capacity to that of MIUS is logical.

Spit it out, what are they going abroad for? note: I am bilingual, I speak Turkish too

Saudi Arabia has not been a reliable partner for Türkiye because Türkiye was not a reliable partner for them either. We didn't have the strength to be relied on. Türkiye was nobody; no military power with only soldiers but not weapons; no economic power with no technology and capital; no power...

Maybe to do something pleasant. We don't want Russia to blow up another nuclear reactor in Ukraine. Karabagh cleansing may precede Syria.

Yeah, my words earlier today and İsmail Demir's words later today, like carbon copy.

What makes it so attractive to have a Baykar factory in their soil instead of buying ready made for those countries? Baykar can setup maintenance facilities if required. If it is getting their people to learn how to make drones from Baykar, it will take decades.

Any product can be sold as long as you get something worth getting for it. The matter is there is nothing worth getting from the potential buyer for it. We do not need nukes given by someone else, we need to make our own. We do not need 5th gen plane technology we are developing ourselves. There...

I have always been one step away from ignoring you and not seeing your posts altogether. From the very first day you had a condescending prejudice that the likes of me would be people trying to flee to Europe and all condescendence from your side. You have this fallacy that my words are laden...

Because we have more important work at hand right now and this class of engine is not made for the top gun.
