Turkiye will most likely overtake UK and France within the next 2-3 years. Turkiye's 2023 growth was adjusted upwards to 4.2%, while France and UK are standing still if not shrinking.
Wagner getting ready to go. Let's hope for a long and bloody civil war in Russia. They need to pay for their crimes in Caucasus, Central Asia, Afghanistan, Syria, Libya and many other places.
I am sorry to say but typical Arab attitude. “If they can’t do it, how should we? If they do it, why should we?”
Baykar is taking market share from US drone manufacturers and is probably the LEADING drone manufacturer in the world. What Akinci can do, no other drone can do.
I think it is very reasonable to assume that there is a lot we are not being told. I believe KE was assigned a high level of secrecy after the first few flights (i.e. election material).
We haven't really seen anything new on KE since the early videos. Even in recent months, they keep sharing...
Why do we have to keep reminding people that Baykar is not a traditional defence company but a fast moving tech scale-up. They are the SpaceX of the defence world. Challenging the norms and doing what is perceived impossible.

Concerns;
1. Murad AESA radar is yet to fly, even on Akinci. (Only ground tests...

The UN should thank TRNC.
Note that a UN pig started to hit a civilians who fell after some pushing, before they got they asses whopped.
Mind-blowing construction speed at the Qosh Tepa Canal. A project which will transform the food security and bring development to the entire north.
They started constructing bridges for cars and rail just recently. Here is the progress on two of these bridges. Important to mention that no...
Clearly, the government is trying to build up conventional capabilities. This time bringing back to life Uragan MLRS merged with newer trucks. Poor truck, however.
It is a lot more expensive and not a dispensable asset. Anka played a crucial role in the Syria campaign enabling TB2 to operate.
Also, I think ownership plays a role. TAI being a state-owned company was not ready to capitalize on the success of the Syria campaign commercially. On top, TAI has...
