Im happy Turkey still uses the F4 Phantom while in Australia we did the dumb stupid decision in retiring the General Dynamic F111 when that plane still had so much life in it also gave Australia long range bombing capabilities now China has it while Australia has none. Dumb move.

We have a modernised version. But right now Hisar is going to phase the hawk out for good. Well Turkish air defence programs are already in full swing and the Hawk will get its retirement just like the F4 Phantoms will.

Honestly I have no hope in Chp or even iyi party for that matter. Iyi party are known to jack off to bashar al assad. The Future is bleak. Never follow agreements which the other party does not.

Usa and Russia have already agreed that Turkey will not be given any space in Syria. They are working together against us. Hence why both have stopped our operations in Manbij and Tal Rifat. Also Russia used the isis excuse to attack idlib and they broke the Sochi agreement which led to our...

The Japanese fighting on too many fronts brought their end. I mean they have not even won in China as it has become a stalemate then they picked a fight with the British and the Americans. They came close to war with the Soviets but they lost the border conflicts and they got pushed out of...

Turkey is playing the job of balancing both sides. Despite russian bombings the TSK is unfazed by it.

Didnt chamberlain have a policy of appeasement? Policy of him appeasing largely destroyed his image eventhough he wanted to avoid war and maintain the balance of power.

Rise of nationalism was even before the Young Turks tookover. Young Turks wanted to revive the Empire but they failed like all previous ones including Abdulhamid II. The empire was rotting and dying. There was no chance in saving it. Also joining ww1 was inevitable it was hard for the...

Sinan does not even realise that the country of Zambia had a space program. Yeah it was a poor mans space program that achieved jack shit but even shows that poor countries can dream of achieving something. Turkey in its caliber should be in space no doubt.
