I think the stabilized guns on the port and starboard side on the hangar aft deck are Aselsan STOP with 25mm cannons. It is a proven system that can operate in a wide variety of modes with high reliability and fully integrated into combat management systems. I don't know at what stage the...

The 4 launcher defense system consist of 30-40 mini drones and the surface drones, which can be used for both protection and kamikaze, presumably carrying explosives, demonstrate the Turkish navy's awareness of innovations in ongoing warfares during concept development. Ships of this...

Turkiye had an order for 40 F-35As, 6 of which were produced and delivered, while the 34 F-35As registered in the order book were shifted to the US Air Force's order book by changing their configuration. I don't know whether the information pollution is intentional or not, but basically it is...

Üstad, really I don't know if the share of the naval forces in the defense budget will increase, but the total amount allocated to construction activities will continue to increase at very significant rates. My forecast is that the dramatic increases in the overall budget will continue. Of the...

Considering the current I-class frigate production program and the estimated launch dates of the 5th-6th-7th ships, and if we take into account the acceleration in the naval construction programs: I think it will not be impossible for the navy to reach a fully indigenously designed main...

I wonder if Gürbağ's GSPT-U type launchers will be integrated into naval platforms? As we know, with the hydro-launcher, they have recently created a family of products qualified up to 200kg mtow uavs/loitering systems.

If the PT-6 can provide enough take-off power to lift two quad racks loaded, I think that sooner or later the carry limit for the main inner stations of the aircraft will be increased. Please correct me if I am wrong, but this section is already being produced monolithically with the main...

If the AKINCI is ready to go on a mission with two fully loaded pneumatic quad racks, our missile truck is ready :)

There is an noteworthy detail about the targeted fleet structure between the lines of the article shared by Hayrani Öz hoca about the US (CCA-Collaborative Combat Aircraft) Program: Two CCA-Collaborative Combat Aircraft will accompany each of the 6th generation manned aircraft and the F35A...

It would be an extremely strategic move to have a common system in the air force inventory that could be used in very long-range air defense warfare, anti surface warfare, and ballistic missile defense warfare.

I don't know how difficult the Argentine defense budget is due to the economic situation, but I guess if there is a navy tender, there must be more or less financing efforts. Although the impact of the IMF and other creditors on the overall budget is a separate issue. Also, I haven't followed...

I don't think we have much chance because of the current government structure in Argentina.

The formation of a self-financing ecosystem within the sector, without being directly dependent on state funding, is actually what needs to happen. There are currently defense and aerospace companies that have formed very valuable core staff and have incredibly high potential. DeltaV is probably...

While the tests of the TB-3 on the TCG Anadolu continue, I'm guessing a new family member of Bayraktar will be shared with the press, around end of 2025 or 26. A STOL naval aircraft with a take-off power of about 450+ shp. Baykar may start under-license production of this engine by then. So a...

I wish the ASW rocket launcher on the stern deck of Tuzla Class Patrol boats could be positioned further inwards, the mine shedding rails could be positioned portably and a 25 ton capacity crane (or towing system) and USV transport cradle could be replaced according to the type of mission. We...

The Turkic World Common Alphabet Commission announced that it has agreed on the proposal for a Common Turkic Alphabet consisting of 34 letters. At the meeting held in Baku in cooperation with the Turkic Academy and the Turkic Language Association, the Turkic World Common Alphabet Commission...

It was a mistake for Turkiye to get directly involved in Egyptian politics and take sides between the MB and the military tutelage. This MB issue is worthy of further discussion, and I have made extensive posts in other forums explaining my position. We made an organization that ideologically...

In Özal's time, the F-16 was shown as a domestic fighter jet on election posters, if you know what I mean. Since there is above average industrial knowledge here, I think we will understand each other without writing everything clearly. In a nutshell, I think ToT is a good marketing statement...

Egypt wants to participate in the production of Hürjet. I think it can be a profitable business model for both sides. However, we need to create full unity on the issues that need a political solution, especially the EEZ issue and full reconciliation in Libya, and I personally do not agree with...

Unfortunately, the cadres providing consultancy services to the relevant armed forces are extensions of certain arms lobbies. Traditionally, the diplomatic support of western states is valued in royal palaces, and major military contracts are to some extent important for strengthening this...
