    Air-Force Turkey asks U.S. to buy 40 F-16 jets to upgrade Air Force

    This is ridiculous, US$ 263 mn per F16. How can a government agree to that. This is enslaving the population, making them work all their lives to pay the never ending debt that is spent to something that does not even have a reasonable return.

    When they see a problem I am sure SSM will step in and iron out the kinks, weed out the weeds. In the end our defense industry in in the flourishing phase and it is good to see that it is attracting more investment from private sector.

    It does not matter who the founder is if they will make better products. Competition can not be disallowed. It is a good thing that Turkish industry is converting from a cheap, construction based economy towards a manufacturing and R&D economy. Too bad the incumbents are losing their comfort but...

    We did not have the technology to make the things that we are making today just a few years ago. Electrical motors are simple things, we sure can make them in a few months.

    A variable tension electromagnetic breaking system is not that hard to make. It can be made the way regenerative braking of electric cars work. Stacks of pie type breaking alternators can be employed with as many as needed numbers of them being engaged and disengaged depending on the type of the...

    TCG Anadolu modified design looks handsome. I wish modifications get implemented. The picture only shows TB3 on it but the ship is meant to carry MIUS and Hürjet as well, and possibly others.

    You never know, any powerhouse that has enough power in their hands can turn hostile at some point. We will probably only exchange some sub-components technology rather than whole systems that we can already make much of. Russia giving us some tech helps them distance Turkey from the west which...

    For risk reduction purposes we may resort to Russian technology. That is if the supply of engines or other components become too hard we take the path of least resistance and get parts that we can get rather than not get them when we need them. Failsafes are needed when there is a risk.

    Hürkus is good as a cheaper solution for nations with terror problems. The same way its main competitor Super Tucano is.
