Republicans may have majority in both houses. But the Jewish, Armanian and Greek lobbies in them need to be persuaded to vote in line with Trump's wishes. LM and GE ought to put their weight as well. It is a tall order when everything in the west is controlled by Jewish money.

This means US has no intention of lifting CAATSA sanctions in place against it's largest ally. This also means that sanctions and semi hidden embargoes on like parts and engines would be subject to these sanctions too. Hence, F110 and f404 engine sales and/or joint production approval by...

@Quasar , Good Idea Bro. But even the TRG300 doesn’t have enough mass/weight to hit target at high enough velocity to inflict the kinetic damage you are expecting. Trlg230 reaches 4.2 Mach in midcourse. But it will hit target at just under 1 Mach, like 07-0.8 Mach. TRG300 will at best hit the...

Roketsan says it is 185mm.

Do you know why the Russian engines gave black smoke? Because they found that fat and short combustion chambers worked best for their compressor design. After Safran helped them they managed to correct some of that shortcoming. Our engines are designed with western tech. They probably will not...

@UkroTurk , Kinematics of both missiles are different. ESSM is optimised for defending sea platforms against all threats in mid range. As per @Anmdt has pointed out it is a very very good “point defence” missile. ESSM uses a dual thrust engine. It has dual fuel in its tank. quick burning one...

The bold lettered bit is the operative statement there. We know how to play football in Turkey. Heck! We were 3rd best in the world once. But still have many foreign players in every team. Even the national team is managed by a foreigner. Analogy to one side; having a partner that can look...

100% correct. ITP Aero is an ex Rolls Royce company. ITP were the ones that developed and manufactured the prototype of the TVC version (for the Indian market) of the EJ200 engine that propels Typhoons. Gobally with 5000 personnel and 1.9 billion dollar turnover, they are a big entity. Having...

I seem to remember it. But can’t put my finger on who it was.

According to BBC, Trump may have agreed with Putin to end war if Zelenskyy accepts below borders in second map. Current situation: BBC’s map

Ailerons which control roll to move plane side to side, Elevators to control pitch to move nose of plane up or down, and Rudder to control yaw to move plane to left or right would have to be adjusted accordingly by the pilot, unless the plane has a form of AI/flybywire system, to do that to a...

Baykar’s site shows this as an engine option for Akinci. Akinci A, uses 450HP (Ukranian engine). B version uses PT6A-135 the 750HP engines. C version using 850HP engines, has flown as you rightfully pointed out. But we don’t know if anyone has yet bought it. This engine is classed as for...

As I said before; If there is a will there is a way. P&W PT6A-60 engine develops 1050HP. P&W PT6A-52 engine develops 850HP. When used on below aircraft, the 850HP engine gives 1700kg useful load capacity. When used on the same plane, the 1050HP engine gives a useful load capacity of up to...

Wrong! Nilüfer Kuzulu clearly says 3 times more fragments per square metre than a mk series bomb. Not 3 times more range. It's lethality possibility has been increased 3 times. It also says that in live test the fragmentation was spread as far as 160 metres. One thing that it as been overlooked...

The level of destruction difference between a 10kg HE round and 10kg of thermobaric explosives is approximately double the radius of the HE round. If HE round destroys everything within 5 m radius (~75m2), a 10kg thermobaric bomb will destroy everything within 10m radius (314m2) A 500kg...

Thermobaric weapons are nothing like a Nuclear weapon. Even the smallest fission based nuclear weapon in the arsenal of nuclear powers have got an explosive power of 1 kilo ton or more when used as a tactical weapon. That is the power of 1 thousand tons of TNT being exploded. Current...

Ideally the bomb this heavy has to be placed where it will have least impact on the centre of gravity of the plane, and have to be well aligned with the fuselage. Otherwise it will negatively affect the manoeuvrability and stability of the plane, making it more difficult to fly. But if it is a...

@Agha Sher , @Strong AI That is a 3820mm long Mk84 series bomb Akinci is carrying.. According to Roketsan the ER version of TRG 300 (370mm in diameter) is 5m in length. (See above) There is space there to accommodate the 5m long missile under Akinci’s belly. Especially if they move the FLIR...

There is a big and recurring illness within Turkish business psyche. If your friend or your neighbour is seemingly making good profit in a specific area of business, you have to invest in the same business. Call it jealousy or copy catting. But it happens and is wrong. The result of this...
