Demand does not explain the whole picture about trade numbers suppliers competitive advantage also plays a role hence the resulting unforeseen higher number for exports.

The pandemic didn't hit Turkey as hard as it did other countries. Our exports is at all time high expected to exceed targets reaching $210bn. Our unemployment is down 2% at 10.6% (?) Our economy is ticking

Risk and profit are siblings, you need to be willing to take the risk to earn the possible profit. One need to be happy that it is a private company situation rather than a public one. Isn't it unbelievable how infrastructures of the nation are still being built while viruses ravage the world...

Turkey is a maker of helicopters and we get to buy engines at maker prices and not export customer prizes. Each engine should cost around $1mn for us. We are not having capable machines because we are rich but because we can make them cost effectively. People should be thankful that the...

You can only make that decision when you are the maker of the F35 or any equivalent plane. F35 is somebody else's plane so it is not our call.

Turkey is no Philly,

F35 is a boon when you don't have a full blown AC but if you have catapults and planes you are better off.

They take less than 20% of the cost.

It doesn't cost a lot to have a little extra now that we are making the machines. In today's world hostiles find new ways to harm nations interests, we need the agility, resilience and the punch to render hostiles hopeless. We have to be on top of our game. We are not followers, we are leaders...

Urbanization rate is at 90% and military activity in urban areas is not plausible. Ataks are Turkish made and is of high quality, it suit so well for our police force that is tasked to do peace time operations without involvement of the military. That's being civil.

You need a helicopter than moves quickly and be awe inspiring, imposing and that has the power to hit. Also you need it against terrorist attacks that can escalate to military grade equipment level. Imagine some terrorists get hold of some pieces of military equipment and want to hit targets in...

Turkey is on the crossroads of lots of traffic; narcotics, human trafficking, illegal immigration, pipelines, espionage, tourism, shipping, air transportation. We do not need to look elsewhere to beef up our police, we have our own special condition that is unique in the world. We need to take...

TB2 will have to drop bombs from further away at worst.

Ukrainian engines have 36% whereas GE has 38% efficiency. Edit: GE claims 38.5% https://zmturbines.com/en/serial-production/marine-propulsion-plants/m15a/

Mi17 can be used to take skiers to mountain tops. It is already used at some foreign locations.

They wouldn't, but even then we can start from scratch and get to a satisfactory state before too long as our engineering prowess is nothing to sneeze at.

That would be another issue we would have to start working on and we can get results before too long.

We have to make our marine engine cooperation with Ukraine bear fruit lest GE deal have conditions to sanction our export customers.

Syria, EEZ.

I wonder if any one of our diesel engines can be used to power the 42m small submarine of STM.
