You don't need to sink a ship to turn it useless

Giving TOT is not a problem I think. Let's face it TB2 tech is not new, developed in 2014, armed in 2016. Tech in this sector goes very fast, you can't contain it even if you want it. If we don't sell someone else will, if not this year than next year.

We may have to look for config like: - 8 cell = 8 siper blk 1 (100km) - 4 cell = 16 siper blk1 without booster (40km) - 4 cell = 16 ESSM 40missiles, not bad

It is said that the missile without booster will be quadpack, if so than range will be ~40km for blk 1, but blk 2 should provide more range

Very well dude, but how we reach a LOS height of 8km? Do we have a mount everest in Turkiye I do not know of?

Again and again it is the upgrading of M60, I really wonder what is keeping the Leopard 2A4 upgrade and more strange is nobody is even asking SSB whether Leopard upgrade is dead but not buried yet

Dogfights in war becomes indeed less and less important, but we use our fighters / drones most of the time in peace time were dogfights do happen! It's a passive aggressive way to chase away opposing fighter jets and may well be in the wish list of the airforce / navy to be able to dogfight.

Because her engine is still under development. One way would be to use Ukrainian engines or Czech micro turbojet to have prototypes or limited initial production

I doubt that Gezgin is in inventory while the engine is still in development or they've used a suitable Ukrainian engine, but than again it should be in tests

Looks like MMU minime

Aselsan is said to handover AESA radars for testing on the Akinci at the end of the year

I don't have any clue about engine development, but I am also sceptical about the comon thinking that developing engines would take 10 years. The same ideas were uttered about developing a tank, many voiced that would take more than 10 years, well the tank was developed in a couple of years but...

Exactly what I thought! Let those leaving go, do not let anyone in for fucks sake!

At least he says to keep the current projects, I am no AKP fan but I shiver with the thought of current CHP on military projects

The sole purpose of a sub is to hide, go find a sub in the wide ocean that's like finding a needle in a hay stack.

That's quite stupid way of thinking, even if US can destroy most of Russian nukes, say 70% than again the remaining 30% is enough to wipe out Europe and the rest of the world for a large part. Russia is simply too big to reach all her nukes on time and has also nukes on submarines

Just give that insignificant amount to me, everyone happy ;)

OK, how about Tümosan engines?

Did BMC not start to use own engines?

What happened to the tender? When is SSIK meeting does anyone know?
