Lol Bangladesh is smart. Countries will rush to Turkish defense products there will be a big queue. First come first served :)

EU to donate fighters to Ukrainian Airforce. Probably old Mig-29s.

Putin sacked chief of staff Valery Gerasimov. This is big proof of Russian failure.

Irpin became a cemetery for Russian forces. There are dead bodies everywhere I won't post graphic content. It seems like the Russian force is ambushed and never had a chance.

Someone is recording the video with a phone. Probably not an official video release probably leaked by the TB2 crew.

No, you don't need air superiority to use TB2. In fact, it is the opposite. TB2 is designed for disputed airspace operations. Sending your fighters to disputed airspace is risky if you lose fighters this means pilots will likely die and you will suffer big material losses. If you lose a TB2 it...

10 years from now we will be a defense behemoth that can deter(conventionally) multiple countries at the size of France or superpowers like the US or China.

This is wrong. https://www.globalsecurity.org/military/systems/munitions/bgm-109-operation.htm And this was 19 years ago. The world moved on a lot from that point. Now even mid-sized countries have sizeable cruise missile inventory.

Well, I told you :) . Bayraktar TB2 is a menace. It is extremely hard to counter. It is cheap and expendable (you won't cry over losing them), It can fly high to avoid air defenses, it can hit mobile targets 15km away with great accuracy. It is extremely mobile (you can deattach wings and move...

According to the US, only 200 cruise and ballistic missiles are used up to today. This is a very low number for a Ukraine-sized country. Google and find out how many tomahawks were used when the US invaded Iraq. Precision munitions can destroy the airforce on the ground or disrupt its operations...

Legendary Free Syrian Army figure Suhail Muhammad Hamoud aka Abu TOW wants to join the Ukrainian ranks to fight against the Russian invasion. He is a fine guy who scored more than 140 hits with ATGMs and survived several assassination attempts of the Al-Nusra Front (Al-Qaeda off-shoot)...

I have double confirmed that Ukrainian TB2s are not destroyed. They are in good condition and they are running sorties. Ukrainian Armed Forces are using TB2s cautiously for mostly recon missions. TB2s played a big role in some of the Ukrainian victories by sending valuable recon videos. TB2s are...

It seems like Russia will pay a heavy price.

It seems like the Russian airborne assault on Gostomel/Hostomel airport failed miserably. The Russians lost 6-7 helicopters (2 of them are Ka-52). Most of the troops at the airport are killed by Ukrainian Spetsnaz and Ukrainian national guards. Some survivors run to the nearby forests.

Again what is the altitude? BTW ESSM-1 has a ~27nm (50km) maximum range at 5km altitude. 40km range is given for 8km altitude. ESSM-2 has also similar range altitude values. If you do the math Hisar-RF is similar to ESSM-1/2. 35km@10km, 40km @8km, and 50km @5km are the same thing.

Range alone means nothing. Altitude and range should be given together. Hisar-RF is "at least" similar in performance to ESSM 2. Hisar-RF has around 35km range at 10km altitude and at those values the missile still has enough kinetic energy(thanks to dual pulse rocket motor) to preserve its...

For now and it is better than nothing. Let me remind you that we have a huge portion of Turkish-owned Blacksea still untouched.

Dude next year we will start using the Blacksea gas lol TPAO is laying pipes while you are writing this.

EU will hurt the most. Russia can redirect its gas to China at any point. Sure Russia will lose some revenues but it is not like Russia can't sell its gas to anyone. We can weather this storm with Qatari and Azerbaijani gas and in a few years, Blacksea gas will come into play.

Shorter range? Source?
