Actually, the jury is still out on this one. There’s still a struggle going on between, starting from, various political interest groups and lobbyists on every floor of the Congress to the both houses and their committees and their sub-committees, and finally all the way to White House. So, it’s...

About this Tempest Team; the way I see is that Britain is willing to cooperate with us in many ways, be it selling Typhoons or an engine development. What I wonder is why we are dragging our feet here. I know the engine deal was off as Turkey wanted IP rights but what’s holding them to join Team...

A cadre of foreign engineers employed by any company does not constitute foreign assistance let alone foreign aid. If those mentioned engineers - individually or as a group - had been sanctioned by a foreign government to participate in any Baykar projects, then that would’ve been maybe...

Yeryüzündeki bütün Türklerin Cumhuriyet Bayramı kutlu olsun 🇹🇷 Kıymetini bilin ve tadını çıkarın ;)

Don’t wanna revive old posts but this I remember from a National Geographic magazine from 1994. Forgot the issue # though.

Wouldn’t touch Russia with a 10 foot pole for a quite a while if you don’t want to be dumped into the cesspool with them and this includes gas hub deal

Altay I don’t believe these numbers to be exact and final but more likely around the ballpark figures and at any rate to prove that a domestic solution is viable and less costly.

Alright guys I observed this forum for a while to realize that some members have some close friends, ties or even maybe involved with Turkish defense industry. Could you please tell us or even maybe speculate about any prospect on a partnership with Tempest project and RR partnership for an...

Thanks for the quick reply. I am aware of their lifting the embargo but somehow it’s not reassuring because… Sweden

According to this table, can I assume that while Dardo uses Bofors L70, Kaan will use an indigenously developed identical barrel? Or is Kaan being developed around Bofors L70 in mind?

Blasphemy!!!! Burn him! :devilish:

And the truth breaks my heart as a Phantom Phan. :cry:

I know the difference between “J”and “E” versions and listed my opinion for the newer and yet still 20 to 25 years old aircraft. With a modification project pretty much any plane can be converted to fireplanes. But considering the size of such a behemoth plane, it’s also proven that such large...

How is that “unique” sir? They practically stole James Cameron’s space marines concept from Aliens 😆 Seriously though, getting real time biometric readouts and the situational awareness/POV of every soldier in the platoon on command console must be a tremendous tactical advantage

Dude first thing I did was to search for saver. com but living the US, it brought up this https://saver.com/ a stupid online shopping app or site or whatever. I forgot to add .tr at the end :ROFLMAO: :ROFLMAO: Thanks for clearing it out (y)

Well I just said TuAF should opt out because - they’re still 20-25 years old aircraft - their engines are different and would require a new logistic inventory - And probably TuAF would have to go through an entire avionics renovation and a fuselage and body overhaul. Other than that, to my...

I don’t see how C-130J would fit in the TuAF as it’s almost a different and older platform but A-400Ms of Spanish Air Forces we definitely must go for. Turkish A400 fleet, as it turns out, was already working at full capacity with 10 aircraft and when you consider the fact that 2 of them are as...

Alright, from what I understand this SAHA is not a corporate but more of an NGO which consists universities, industrial members from various sectors and even SMEs (KOBİ in Turkish) and they call their enterprise as Cluster. My question is, did they form a company to design this gun or they’re...

Thanks to my interest in WW2, I was aware of the vastness of the common geography both countries existed on but when it was put in perspective like this o_O

Just to refresh our memories, Mr. Kalkavan‘s shipyard sent a complaint letter to Başbakanlık Teftiş Kurulu (Office of Prime Ministry Inspection Committee) on the ground that they were not invited to tender despite they applied for a bid and the tender would not be a fair one as it would...
