    We should get 10 A400Ms if we can.

    Because no one is sure about it. Erdogan will run again given the chance.

    What can be done is very limited. We should have never accepted the NATO-Israel deal in the past (Erdogan voted in favor of it).

    Live Conflict Israel-Palestine War|Regional Escalations

    EU and US diplomats are negotiating with Iran to keep retaliation at a certain level so as not to cause a regional war. I guess it will be similar to last time. Some nice fireworks to appease the average Iranian to save face. Don't expect anything big.

    It is an issue even the ex-head of Tübitak SAGE Gürcan Okumuş talked about that issue in an interview. BTW RAM is tested against GQM-163 Coyote test target missile. Anyone who thinks RAM is worse than AIM-9X when it comes to missile interception should just check what GQM-163 Coyote is.

    Yes, but pulling 50G is not something you want as the missile will bleed a lot of energy. Even against supersonic missiles the missile is not supposed to be pulling 50Gs. It means your guidance is so bad at calculating Predicted Intercept Point(PIP) that the missile is compensating for that...

    Bozdoğan is not suitable for missile and UAV interception missions period. When you want your 140kg A-A missile to pull 30-40G maneuvers at mach 3 to 4 your tiny actuators need to produce enough torque to run a car. What we need is a smaller, lighter therefore inherently agile, relatively cheap...

    You are talking as if Levent won't have agility and performance. Levent will be an inherently agile missile as it is a lot lighter than Bozdogan. Bozdogan uses some really expensive and exotic subsystems to be agile at that weight. Less mass=more inherent agility, more mass=less inherent agility...

    No there is a reason why there is no naval AIM-9X. There were sea sparrow based short range naval air defense systems in the past but they were abandoned in favor of RAM and today there are no naval air defense systems based on the predecessor of sea sparrow. If we try to intercept incoming...

    It depends. It has only an IIR sensor and no passive RF sensors. It is big and expensive because it is designed as an a-a missile for high-value air targets.

    22nm is important because it was the first node that was based on tri-gate (FinFET) transistors. Today's cutting-edge nodes still use FinFET transistors. In the near future, GAAFET transistors will replace FinFET transistors. A facility that produces 22nm FinFET chips can also(theoretically)...

    Their condition is good nothing like American surplus C-130s. They have low accumulated flight hours. They can easily be kept operational till 2050 with good maintenance and modernization. Greeks want to go for American surplus C-130s but their condition is so bad that they are having second...

    TR HÜRJET-Advanced Jet Trainer/ Light attack aircraft

    24 Hurjets for 6 A400M 1 A400M costs roughly 160 million euros, so we are selling a single Hurjet for 40 million euros(43.5 million $). IMHO this is a good trade for us.

    Unless those choppers will also be used in civilian tasks(FYI they will be) If a helicopter without a civilian certification crashes when used for civilian tasks, you can sue responsible parties.

    No helicopter will be delivered before the EASA certificate is officially awarded which is likely to happen in August but it is not certain.
