Does that mean its chosen as the TTFAC? Because in SSIK already the decision to build FAC decision was made so I don't suppose they are advertising it for nothing?
If we make a small number of heavy bombers that could actually be more useful and economical than a large fleet of fighters. Say a single bomber that can like drop dozens of guided munitions in a single sortie and could stay in air for a longer while could prove more optimal. Based on our...
We calculate price of concert ticket and number of tickets to find how much it costs randomly but don't calculate how much such things cost. Say we buy 1000 f16 that's like 300 billion usd over like 20 years or so to buy and operate
Given this assumption two TF6000s would provide as much electricity as KAAN and F22?, could make a mini unmanned 5th gen fighter, but would probably not be cheap. And then imagine what that number is going to be for TF35000, I expect two of them should at the very least exceed the (160+80) of...
I said this before but I speculate that TF6000 could have very high electricity generation capacity for its class, following the trend with newer engines, which could allow it to power full sized MURAD. For instance F110 generates 60 kVA, a single F404 is 40, F414 is 70, F135 is 160. EJ200...
New vipers aren't urgent. As soon as we get at least a couple of existing ones modernized and delivered further embargoes become increasingly unlikely.
Thats the mentality I'm afraid of. The more stuff we buy from US the fewer orders for local companies and less urgency to finish ours, the longer it will take to become independent. We do need platforms but If we can make it past next 5 years or so we will really start seeing things come...
I just don't see it happening at this point. I mean it would have benefits, but it is difficult to determine what it would cost us in diplomacy, with money and resources going to it that could danger KAAN too, but then it would have other benefits to KAAN, difficult to gauge the situation. But...
We collectively deserved this mockery for our unrelenting stupidity. Need to get our shit togheter quickly.
I should probably quit following defense news for a while for my own mental well being.
It is being reported that at the end US basically said either accept Sweden into Nato or we will intoduce F35 bill for Greece to congress on its own and good luck passing F16 deal on its own from congress
ANKA 3 remains the most critical short to mid term development for us until KAAN. At least a truly stealth deep strike platform can balance the books for retaliatory or strategic pre emptive deep strike. But nothing will replace an A2A stealth fighter.
People insisted on trusting Temel Kotil over İsmail Demir, I really appreciated Demir's realistic attitude and level headed explanations. You can look up posts that go like "Do you know better than Temel Kotil" and turned into an argument. At the of the day it is better to be level headed and...
