That Turkish twitter guy is a total dickhead blinded by uber-nationalism.
LIGNex1 selected SDT ETU datalinks for the Embedded Training System integration because of its cost-efficient and quality hardware. Tactical datalink system for KF-21 will be indigenous afaik (Link-16, Link-22).

KTSSM-2:
200+ km actually, final range 290 km (export) / 290+ km (domestic)
600 mm diameter
500 kg improved penetration (bunker busting) thermobaric warhead
2 m CEP only (higher precision compared to 10 m CEP of US ATACMS or other similar tactical missiles)
Older clip of KTSSM-1 test firing:
K9A2: 9-10 rounds/min with fully automated loader (2 „versions“ currently with 6.6 seconds and 6 seconds loading time).
All 48 ammo rounds and 240 insensitive propellant charges are stored in the newly designed turret. AFAIK Firtina-II uses a different autoloader tech with approx 7.5-8 seconds...
6-8 rounds/min is the rapid fire rate
(prolonged firing at this high rate would overheat and damage the barrel)
3 rounds/min for sustained fire without tear and wear of barrel is the optimal cadence.
Main arguments for FA-50:
- tried & tested bird since 2000s
- very high production quality
- integration of US, European, Israeli, Korean weapon and sensor systems
- international pilot training program
- excellent supply chain & customer service
Luckily we learned from the best in business...

Doesn‘t Koç own Beko? Very competitive and well-known brand, they could grow it further to a global household name. Koç family reminds me of Korean chaebol owners.
The quality of Korean media isn‘t any better 😅 … but the Chinese CCP-controlled media mouthpieces are the worst mix of propaganda, twisted half-truths, blatant lies and deflections.
Japanese rescue team at work in Turkey:
That‘s why media literacy and critical analysis is so important to reveal propaganda, censorship and bias. Many simple minded people believe any bullshit regardless of unreliable sources in their social media bubble.
