Turkish security sources said the operation was aimed at restoring internal borders in line with the 2019 de-escalation zone agreement, which Ankara has refrained from doing so. The source said the operation was aimed at restoring the borders of the Idlib de-escalation zone, which was initially...

Serakib is heavily fortified, it won't be easy, but in general Aleppo offensive is concentrated on the M5. If the opposition can control and hold the M5, they will gain a very important advantage. I am not an expert, but my impression so far is that the operation was very well planned.

I am sure that the concept of this KE fleet autonomy has attracted the attention of many circles in the world. While in our country it has hardly been on the agenda of social media. * On the other hand, the aim of the KAAN programme is not only a 5th generation jet, but also an -optionally-...

The Turkish state has not the slightest provable involvement in this operation. Despite this, some Iranian and Russian influence agents on social media are trying to create such a perception with forced comments. One of them even posted a photo of a Turkish lira in the pocket of one of the dead...

My understanding from a series of statements in the press in recent months is that the Ministry of Defence was pushing hard for the Viper modernization to take place within TAI. Presumably, it could not be ensured that the modernization would proceed domestically. After yesterday's news, I have...

It is also understood from the same minutes that there is no positive view on returning to the F-35 purchase without take back the JSF production share. (p.82) In my personal opinion, the main issue to be insisted on is keeping the major maintenance services within the country as in the initial...

With the current engine configuration, a capability is being developed that can take a payload of over 250 kilograms to an altitude of 25,000 ft and keep it there for at least 15-16 hours. No matter how we look at it, this is an achievement, but how this potential can be utilized depends on the...

The Department of Government Efficiency, one of Trump's election promises, is set to be established with the aim of increasing government efficiency by reducing bureaucratic costs, ending wastefulness and restructuring federal agencies. Musk, Trump's biggest election financier, is expected to...

Footages of TB-3's 2nd and 3rd take-off and landing tests on TCG Anadolu. Probably, flight hours will exceed 1,000 hours by November. The program is progressing with extraordinary success, and tests with actual mission payloads may not be too far away. In the meantime, Let's see when GA-ASI...

Kale Group Deputy Chairman Osman Okyay said in a press interview *** that the Arat engine could power some specific drones in the future as a multi-start function and long-lasting engine, which I interpreted as a study that was ongoing in the background. Kale has a very advanced test...

If I am not mistaken, a more detailed presentation of this ilustration is presented in the 'Türkiye Unmanned Aerial Vehicles Roadmap 2011-2030' document. So this roadmap is based on TAI's corporate strategy, which dates back maybe 15 years. Although there have been many differences in some areas...

ARAT is coming.

TB-3's engine configuration; PD170/180ST has a maximum take-off power under 200shp, while the 222ST has a maximum take-off power of 222hp as future option. Meanwhile, GA-ASI uses a 450-horsepower Rolls Royce turboprop engine in its system. Naturally, the maximum take-off weight of the rival...

Retired Admiral Cihat Yaycı said that he knew that a naval variant of the KAAN, capable of vertical landing, being worked on to be evaluated in the next period. He starts the sentence like a wish, but he emphasizes several times that he knows it. Even if it's an evaluation phase right now, it's...

Footage from the 58th test flight has been uploaded on youtube. Cem Karaca in the back was one of the best choices to celebrate this historic achievement. (Aircrafts and tests aside, TCG Anadolu is poetically beautiful :))

For KE, the proper ship is only the beginning of the story. A never-ending field of development has been opened, where even a pause for a while will cost the entire competitive edge. Not only Baykar but all domestic players in this game are part of the same team. Maybe it doesn't have much...

1W A-size passive directional sonobuoys packing under 10kg while NATO standard G-size is under 6kg., but I think the sonobuoys dispenser pod for UAVs and the sonobuoy monitoring and control system (SMCS) are the main weights here. The weight of the SDS pod using in the MQ9B is around 130 kg. A...

There must be very different dynamics and needs with KE or other fast aircrafts with turbofans, but TB-3 is a system where flight endurance is the main criterion. The specifications on the official website state +21 hours, but this will definitely reach around 24 hours with engine, structural...
