    What thoughts? Erdo has a plan. Lower the value of TL and cut the interest rates so borrowing TL will become easier. Hopefully, this will increase exports and lower imports as local producers will look to use local components in their products(Rather than buying radar altimeter from Canada...

    Air-Force Turkey asks U.S. to buy 40 F-16 jets to upgrade Air Force

    I don't think the US will pay any money to us. At best those funds will be used for F-16s and at worst the US will sit on the money.

    Greeks are not producing hull and turret they are welding German steel. BMC is second to none when it comes to welding things together to create a rigid body. There are so many things inside that hull. Gears, hydraulics, servos, compartments, cables, sensors too many to name. The hard part is...

    2 years for building 1.5 years for subsystem installation another 1.5 years for testing. We are building an 8500-tonne state-of-the-art AAW destroyer, not a 500-tonne FAC.

    I have never claimed that I know. What I claimed is a good portion of the tank will be produced(not assembled) by BMC and I proved it. Now you tell me how many parts ELVO is producing? What is the contribution of ELVO? They are not even responsible for the quality of the end product and system...

    ELVO assembles Leo2. You buy something from IKEA come home and assemble it. BMC will produce Altay. This is inherently different from assembling. Most of the subsystems will come from other providers but there are also things BMC will produce.

    We are on our way to a similar capability with TRG-230, TRG-122, TRLG-230, and TRLG-122 missiles. TRG missiles(GPS/INS) will be integrated into the UAVs and fighters in the first phase, TRLG (added laser guidance) will be integrated into the UAVs and fighters in the second phase of the project.

    Leo2A4 upgrade project(LeoTay) isn't progressing because BMC has no capability to produce the Altay turret. BMC is working hard on gaining that capability.
