TB-3 is almost a tailor-made solution for Trieste and Cavour. While some Europeans tend to make this pride issue, the Italians are now taking a more pragmatic stance and it seems they are sincere about strengthening defense cooperation, which will inevitably produce positive results in favor of...

In a way, I think we can also see these developments as Italy's desire to revive the piaggio p.2hh. For Baykar, Italy is in a position to create favorable conditions for it to become a major unmanned systems supplier in the EU market. The collaboration between Leonardo and Baykar has the...

I am really looking forward to see how the concept of USV-FAC teaming will evolve. FAC missile boats are by nature an attack platform, so low detectability is among the main criteria. I'm thinking out loud: could USVs work like the weapons and sensors traditionally carried on FAC? In other...

INTERVIEWER: “Why did you revoke John Bolton's security clearance, sir?” TRUMP: “Because I think that was enough time. You get a job, You want to do a job. We're not going to provide security for people for the rest of their lives. Why should we? I thought he was a very stupid person but I...

In Piaggio's stalled UCAV project, Leonardo was the project partner and the most important system supplier. I think this should not be an ordinary visit, but a meeting to discuss possible cooperation. If Leonardo and Baykar came together, they could meet the armed and special purpose UAV needs...

1. The first phase of the construction of the naval base in TRC is finally starting. 2. In the Northern Aegean, both Çanakkale and Gökçeada, the docks and berths for submarines and frigates are being renewed and new ones will be built. There is a visible developments, with the amphibious corps...

The relevant visual published in the monthly magazine of the Turkish Naval Forces regarding the project of expanding Aksaz with building a new dock, pier and coastal facilities. The estimated cost is 350 million euros and it is expected to tender in 2025. 1. Ongoing/Proposed Works in the...

With its updated specs, the Hürjet is really quite capable and perhaps one of the best aircraft in its class. So much so that when I see it being compared to trainers such as the M346 or L159T2 on the internet, it really makes my stomach cramp. This will be a true lead-in fighter trainer jet, a...

We have recently provided Pakistan with a lot of strategic know-how and infrastructure consultations, we are looking for ways to work together, and it is undeniable that there has been a serious rapprochement in the military bureaucracies of both sides, not just in words but in concrete terms...

The maximum armament capacity of the Gripen C/D with the F404 engine variant RM-12 is 11700lb/5300kg. Although the maximum ammunition capacity of Gripen E/F with the F414 variant (RM-16) is not specifically stated which pylon can carry how much, it is reported that the total payload capacity...

If we succeed in collaborating with Hürjet to the British along with the Spanish, we can also secure possible engine solutions for advanced variants. Developing a mid-class engine can be a huge gain for our aviation industry, but as @boredaf explained, the 35K engine is more important than...

It's a post that makes me wish there was no meme ban. :) Everything little little, into the middle...

Yes and equally about the saturation. MAM-T is a maneuverable bomb with a proximity sensor. Although unpropelled, they may not be easy targets for countermeasure systems.

Without including the difference in impact velocity, probably the Çakır missile and the MAM-T have similar weight class warheads. A +60kg high-explosive and fragmentation warhead can disable a frigate if it hits its main mast. I need an expert opinion here, but I am of the opinion that can also...

Many criticized the possible LCA/LIFT variants based on the specs set for the acrotim and training, but it was already clear that the payload limit would increase significantly. It seems that a payload increase of around 25% has been achieved by sacrificing a flight range of around 10%. I am...

Video clips of the opening of the Adapazarı Military Manufacturing Factory, including Enver Pasha.

KAAN is an optionaly manned combatant platform according to the roadmap. This needs to be reminded from time to time. Secondly, there are aviation companies in Turkiye too, working on AI-Human cognitive interfaces, one of which is HAVELSAN. Thanks to the KAAN project, we have already started to...

I may be looking at it through rose-colored glasses, but I believe that the facilities, which were established under the same name and at the same location as Tayyare ve Motor Türk Anonim Şirketi (TOMTAŞ) with the partnership of TAI, ASFAT and Erciyes Teknopark, and 40% of which will later...

I think a mapping was intended to be done here by including the impact areas. We know that many tribal unions in the depths extending to the territory of Mali-Niger today swore allegiance to Istanbul, as the seat of the caliphate. Even today, there are tribes that have ritualized this history...
