Are those Assads troops though? There are various militias that defend Assad but do not necessarily take orders from him.

IMHO all of the aircraft above, Hurjet has the best cockpit. If Hurjet can make the first flight in March as promised it has a good chance.

Hisar-O means the capability to launch Hisar-RF and that means the capability to launch Siper Block I if needed. MAR-D is not enough for Siper but the ship is designed to host Smart-S Mk2 or a radar similar to that class(Cenk-S). The design looks to have enough space to put at least one more 4x...

Next stop shaking hands with Al-Assad.

Leg folding is also a decision taken in line to optimize internal bays.

Internal bay design is limited with the size/total volume of Kızılelma so you have a limited volume. Internal bays are designed according to the size/volume of the Kızılelma, not the other way around. If you want to increase the volume of internal bays without changing the total size/volume of...

It is designed that way to use internal volume effectively. Kızılelma has an internal weapons bay. Smaller landing gears not only mean less weight but also means more internal volume for other uses. Of course, there is a limit to it.

This is true. I guess valuable things are also moved and secured in underground tunnels. Although there is no way to survive air operations without getting hurt you can minimize losses if you prepare for it and have a warning before it happens. In this case, YPG had days to prepare due to the US...

Turkiye can integrate any bomb to any aircraft. This price probably includes testing equipment, training, etc. The stand-alone price should be even lower than that. BTW this is my educated guess. I don't have concrete info about the deal and don't quote the unit price as 25k $. We are producing...

Here goes the American tax money.

I don't think it is ok to single out Arçelik for an investment. This has to be done via a consortium 4-5 big holdings should come together to make that investment similar to TOGG.

There won't be any 5000ton big I class/new heavy frigate and nothing will be put on the keel before 2030. Open sea patrol ship/patrol corvette, i class, Barbaros Mod, Milgem Mod, TF-2000, FAC project, USV projects TN has enough surface combatant projects for years to come. Private shipyards...

Baykar plans to produce 500 TB2 next year and will achieve a weekly production of 10 TB2. Those TB2s have customers guys. IMHO everyone will get Bayraktar at some point.

Pakistan has Panther howitzers. MKEK offers to mount existing Panther howitzers on top of a platform desired by Pakistan.

TISU will be powered by a single Al-322 or an engine in the same class. (what I meant is thrust and physical specs like dimensions and weight)

It is both possible and plausible and there were ramjet air defense missiles in the past. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/CIM-10_Bomarc

What you wrote is common sense and generally true but TAF executed many winter operations in the past. I don't completely rule out a winter operation especially if its aim is not to take ground but to raid certain terrorist camps. While fortifying the Zap area with permanent forward bases and...

Probably 1200. The contract value should be around 30 million $.

TISU will be powered by a single Al-322 or an engine in the same class. Later TEI TF-6000. TISU is a subsonic aircraft a single Al-322 will be enough to provide enough performance.

According to one of my sources, there were actually 4 different missiles. One of them is canceled and after that Hisar-RF+booster is named Block-I rather than block-0. According to earlier plans, what is now known as Block-I was a different single-piece/monolithic missile project without...
