Unless there is a full return to the program, including industrial participation, and without negotiations on issues such as the PKK-YPG, the arming of Greece, I am not sure what it would mean to dispose of the S400s 'the way the US wants' and start F-35 talks with uncertainty. Or, if the issue...

The name Victoria Nuland should be underlined first. It is important to know who this woman, her husband, and her family are. They are probably the most dangerous people in the US foreign service, and probably the mentors of all the things that have caused Turkiye so much trouble... When...

The Czech Republic government signed a Letter of Offer and Acceptance (LOA) today making official its intent to procure 24 Lockheed Martin 5th Generation F-35 Lightning II aircraft. Through the U.S. government Foreign Military Sale, the Czech Air Force will receive its first aircraft in 2031...

The production line being set up for KAAN has been planned according to the capacity to rollout two aircraft per month starting from 2029. The main plan is 24 per year, but it was stated directly by the TAI GM that there is a plan to exceed this in case of external demand. In the 2030s...

This issue of delays is also, in my opinion, a very relative area of discussion. Depending on how we look at it, it can be defined as a major failure or within acceptable limits. Judging by the current procurement plans of the Air Force, we are preparing for many possibilities. Can a few months...

The target of delivering first MMU KAANs to TAF in 2028 is based on statements by senior officials or agency officials responsible for the program. So it is not based on the assumptions of defense aviation enthusiasts. Whether this target can be realized or not is a matter of debate, but almost...

The maiden flight schedules of the Hürjet and Anka-3 were also slightly delayed. There were other examples also, both on the unmanned and manned aviation side. My understanding is that the political will has always pressuring TAI, especially in terms of the timetable. The KAAN program is a...

Climate activists are completely out of their minds and, contrary to popular belief, are funded by very powerful foundations. At a UN workshop recently, one of them said that agricultural and animal consumption is an ecocide. lol Farmer activists are generally people after their livelihoods...

At least 3 US soldiers killed and at least 24 wounded in attack on CENTCOM base on Jordan-Syria border. US media outlets started to report as breaking news. What I feel is that the ground is being prepared for Israel's declaration of war on Lebanon.

This time I think it's farmer activists. You know, European farmers are now trying to make their voices heard with big actions. Tough times.

In the meantime, Greece is in a position where it has to granted even simple 90-ton patrol boats from the US. The state of Greek shipbuilding is very exemplary. They have lost almost all capacity. Our naval industry opened the gap at the right time. I mean you can't balance it by outsourcing...
