You're losing the point of my comment. Of course I feel the pain of the families. I have 2 cousins who are currently active gendermarie commandos in the South Eastern region. I know what it feels like waking up, not knowing whether they are in combat or deceased. I know the pain of learning...

I sometimes feel like PKK is placed on our border just to help train our soldiers better. With the latest technologies, it is becoming easier to eliminate these targets. At this point, it just feels like they're becoming target practice, helping improve the readiness level of our army. I hope...

I can't wait to see a fleet of these things roaming the skies with Bozdoğans and Gökdoğans on their wings. Well done Mr. Bayraktar. I wasn't expecting the release of a missile test. This really is a strong message against all those with hostile intensions against our nation. Again...

I don't think that we have the means to lose a couple of rockets before making a final launch. That's why we don't see many videos of Turkish missiles exploding in mid-air. I have a friend who works in quality control at a major Turkish defence industry company that produces missiles. He has...

Aren’t we publishing just too much information with all these photos? Why are we showing so much information to foreign nations? I feel like we’ve already given away all the secrets of Akıncı, before we could even get a chance to fly it on a regular basis. Each day, we see yet another part of it...

I’m guessing that this procurement directly targets ULAQ. Are there any other major companies working on an unmanned sea vessel? Having a “priority“ status probably means that they want to really accelerate this project and use these in the Aegean. Procuring 40 of these ships seems like a very...

The electric engine and its batteries will probably just take some of the load of the main engine so that the main engine can use that extra power for better radars or sat-com systems. So it won’t take over all the duties of the main engine. Use of a hybrid system might also improve the range...

Although that Bell 360 Invictus is not exactly at a mockup stage, I fully agree that it was possible to build a better mockup. However, I think that this is still in R&D stage and they might not want to allocate precious resources to a useless mockup. The rivets allow a more hands-on approach at...

In his YouTube stream, Mr Tolga Özbek said that T-629 will be a hybrid and NOT a fully electric helicopter. Of course, in the future, as technology evolves, it would be possible to turn a hybrid model into a completely electric model. He has also stated that (logically) this is a Mockup, not the...

You can actually see them in action on FlightRadar. They mostly operate in the Aegean or the South Eastern borders. I sometimes see 4-5 in the air at the same time. Sometimes they turn off their transponders and then appear somewhere else. But yeah, they are actually operating 24/7.

Turkey has faced numerous internal threats before, like the ISIS bombings. ISIS used modern vehicles to disguise and explode high-value targets, right at the capital of Turkey. If police had a capable and flexible helicopter like Atak in those days, they could have tracked and eliminated such...

Doing this could go either way: we could either end up with a good spaceman training program, or a huge loss of funds that could have been spent elsewhere. Despite the competition, space is a global target and effort. We should definetely get help for such things. NASA has perfected these...

First of all, I’m no expert so I have no knowledge about the inner workings of such systems. I have an interesting argument, or rather a question about our current and upcoming air defence systems: The American, French, Russian and Chinese air defence systems have been in the market for a very...
