    150 is a good number, cameras like CATS are an expensive products. The first Aselflir-500 will enter the inventory soon. Aselflir-500 tests have gone really smoothly up to now. CATS had a bumpy ride but the experience gained from the CATS project really showed its value for the Aselflir-500 project.

    You should also consider that anything bought under the scope of military projects for the Turkish armed forces is exempted from the tax(%20). When TAIS buys ship steel or Cenk-S in the scope of Milgem 6-8 the company doesn't pay the tax. This helps to keep costs down.

    High-accuracy MIRV warheads might make conventional long-range ballistic missile strikes cost-effective. Lets assume your ballistic missile costs 10 million $ and carry 5 MIRV warhead.

    Armenians lost over 1000 men in 24 hours. The war was not sustainable for them anymore. Their drones didn't work due to Azerbaijani EW interference. Whatever little air defense left was destroyed instantly. They have no other option but to capitulate.
