TAF is deploying troops and assets to Minnag and Kuveiris air bases.

Screenshot @0:35 this is a better version of the screenshot i took above. Scale is different in this 30-60-90-120 with the same -70 +70 degree coverage. There should be no doubt this is nm.

Ok, but which target? There are multiple targets in the video and obviously the video is cut and montaged. BTW coverage is -70 to +70 degree so 140 degree in total. I took this screenshot @ 0:36 your screenshot is from 0:37 this is the target from your screenshot.

Well, some people say the scale is km, but I doubt it. The Navy and the Air Force use nm, the Navy also uses yards for sonar operations (yarda in Turkish). MURAD is developed for the air Force in mind and not only the Turkish Air Force but most of the airforces around the world also use nm so...

160nm.

Screenshot from the new Baykar video. Akıncı test with MURAD radar. 160nm is roughly 300km. UAV version of MURAD looks good. Murad radar is tracking target number 2.

EU GDP and the US GDP were similar back in the day. Fast forward today, the EU GDP is half of the US GDP and China boomed in that period while EU is stagnated. Those 2 powers out competed the EU and it will be even worse in the next decade. Greek demands are maximalist, not the other way...

It is hilarious to see the EU is self-destructing itself because of Greece and Southern Cyprus. EU will either grow up or be squeezed between the US, Russia and China.

“Early evaluations suggest the ultimate recoverable reserves could reach 6 Bbbl of oil and 12 to 20 Tcf of gas in the Diyarbakir Basin and 20 to 45 Tcf in the Thrace Basin.” Oil reserve is huge.15 years of Turkish consumption at the current rate. Gas is also big. 20 years of Turkish consumption...

Some contracts such as missiles, ammunition, and payloads like pods, will probably be signed separately.

I expect a price tag per fighter from 125 to 150 million euros, so it looks on the lower side, but 5 billion looks plausible.

Big surprise from China China is testing a domestically developed EUV lithography machine at Huawei's Dongguan site. Trial production might start as early as Q3 2025, and volume production might begin sometime in 2026. The machine uses laser induced discharge plasma technology instead of ASML's...

It is a win-win agreement due to Baykar reaching the EU market but Italy got the better deal. We solved many issues about high tech subsystems like radars and EO systems on the other hand Italy needs to spend big money and invest a lot of time to develop UAVs similar to Baykar UAVs.

85 km/h

I posted in the past. Kara Atmaca has a range of 500+km. It can probably reach 600km depending on flight profile, waypoints, etc.

F*cking muppet show. Circus.

Next AKP+MHP+DEM will draft a new constitution and the parliament will renew the elections with 360 MPs so that Erdogan can run again. Apo will be taken to house arrest and will be elected as the chairman of DEM. Turkiye is heading in a disastrous direction, and there is no one or force to stop...

It might be Altay. A total of 71 Altay will be delivered in 2027-28 (41+30). It is too expensive for the IFV deal.

Production and testing of gimbaled electro-optical systems and vision systems are carried out at the Akyurt campus. In this context, production processes for CATS, Aselflir-300T, Aselflir-400/410, Aselflir-500, ASELPOD, Ahtapot, Piri-100, Akrep, Kırlangıç, Martı EO systems and sub-assemblies are...

The Rotax engine doesn't have high-altitude capability. It is not possible to climb to 30000+ feet with a Rotax engine. Prototypes of the BM-100 engine were produced in 2024 and Baykar wants to deliver the first TB2 with BM100 engine in 2025. There is a problem though BM100 uses a lot of COTS...
