Türkiye is considering a sizeable operation(a city/province sized operation) against YPG. There are troop movements I don't want to give exact details at this moment as this might hinder operational security.

FYI the US never defended anybody if there was nothing in it for the US. The US was supposed to defend Ukraine. There was a deal between Ukraine and the US. Ukraine decommissioned its nuclear arsenal left over from the USSR and in return, the US promised to defend Ukrainian territorial...

There is no risk. It is simply existing Li-Ion tech with a different anode chemistry/material. Current Li-Ion battery factories can produce those batteries in mass in a year or two. That is what makes this so valuable. Other battery research like solid-state batteries needs a lot of time until...

Greece literally became a colony of the US. From now on Greece is a semi-independent state.

True. We can do anything if we don't care about the contracts/terms etc. Codes are important when you want to integrate your own weapons. There are also workarounds for that(like you can integrate Gökdoğan as AMRAAM or HGK as JDAM computer thinks like it is launching a JDAM) but we are past that...

Yes, there is. It is a new lithium-silicon/carbon chemistry. It is very similar to lithium-ion batteries. Graphite anode is replaced by a silicon/carbon anode. Soon the range of the EVs will increase by %25 without big changes. This will be the final nail on the coffin of internal combustion...

Yes, he can but congress then can find a 2/3rd majority which will be bad for Biden. Issues regarding Turkiye enjoy bipartisan support. The US government is planning to release F-35 to Greece simultaneously with the Turkish F-16 deal to counter that possibility. Greece will get F-35s starting...

Even better export figures are expected next year. Slave workforce, competitive prices due to TL exchange rates, and logistic chain problems in the western countries are turning TR into a producer/exporter country. Turkiye exported 20 billion and 783 million $ worth of goods and services in...

There won't be any procurement of Hürkuş until it is redesigned and remanufactured with composite parts.

According to some sources, Biden admin will accept the Turkish F-16 deal. But a harsh battle is expected at the congress and the congress will likely deny the contract similar to the Turkish national assembly denying access for American forces in the invasion of Iraq. Erdo will tell Biden at...

New battery breakthrough from Farasis. Farasis is the battery partner of the TOGG consortium. Recently a new company ( SIRO (SI)lk (RO)ad Temiz Enerji Çözümleri San. Tic. A.Ş.) is founded to produce batteries in TR. Teslas current energy density is 260 Wh/kg.

We should accept the invitation and coordinate this with the Algerian brothers.

Via private sources. The deal also includes cooperation on nuclear submarines under the shipbuilding tag. My source added that Erdogan is determined to sign the deal if the US rejects the Turkish F-16 deal. If given green light, the delivery of the second squadron of S-400 will happen in the...

The US will probably reject this. This deal is created so that the US will be the one to sever the ties. We asked for 40 new Vipers, 80 viper upgrades (block 50+ fighters and youngest block50s) national weapons, and payload integration capability on the block 70(something like a Turkish Viper)...

What if the tender you speak of states electrical propulsion as a requirement. Electrical propulsion has its own advantages. Havelsan UAV is developed for specific needs. Baykar DIHA will be used on ships and artillery batteries that need more range. Havelsan BAHA will be mostly used by infantry...

The biggest difference is the engine. Havelsan UAV has an electrical engine and an endurance of around 2-2.5 hours. Baykar DIHA has a 2 stroke combustion engine.

No, they do not.

You are comparing apples with oranges.

Another slap on the face of Canada.

This is not correct. Sterling is a deadweight compared to Li-Ion batteries. You will get less energy by burning all the fuel in the Sterling setup compared to a single charge of lithium-ion batteries that are placed in the space of the sterling engine and required tanks/machinery.
