The reason is testing. Batu project is moving faster than expected. First BMCPower needs to complete the tests on the bench than 10k km mobility tests on the Altay. This takes a huge time. Don't expect a powerpack to start running tests on the Altay before 2023 and don't expect a fully qualified...

NATO won't come into play ever even if Russia targets the Turkish Grand National Assembly. What will happen is, a lot of NATO members will reject the invoking of article 5 in favor of Turkey and NATO will dissolve.

I agree with you. But Erdo thinks Turkish goods will sell very well. Like defense industry products, ships, automobiles, machinery, textile products, steel, chemical products, and refined petroleum products etc. Erdo also thinks if minimal wage stays under 300$ investors will invest in the real...

14 batteries x3 launchers=42 launchers. 42 launchers x6 missile 252 missile. I expect the final figure to reach somewhere between 25-30 batteries in the future. The requirement was 90 launchers/30 batteries. I expect the delivery of the first 14 batteries to be completed in 3 years.

Gökbey is moving on really smoothly. The first three choppers will be delivered next year and seem like over 60 helicopters will be ordered for Turkish needs and negotiations with Azerbaijan are going on. I can see this helicopter is selling like crazy.

There are a lot of supporters from both sides who don't celebrate the victory day or celebrate it just because they have to.

Erdogan is trying to increase the dollar to 10TL and decrease the interest rate to %15 as step 1 and lira to 12TL and interest to %10 as step two. Workers will pay a huge price for this policy. Turkish workers will be cursed with poverty for at least a decade. If successful TR will increase...

Sungur has nothing to do with Stinger. It is not further developed from Stinger. Stinger is not a base product for Sungur. Sungur and Stinger have nothing to do with each other. Neither propulsion, nor missile geometry and control, or guidance, or warhead is similar. The only similarity is they...

Roketsan did an amazing job with Sungur. It will sell like crazy.

Interesting video record from "old CATS" at teknofest. 3:46:52-3:47:10 CATS captures an airliner taking-off from İstanbul airport. CATS is flying on a TB2 above Atatürk airport. Distance from Atatürk Airport to İstanbul Airport is 30-40km.

We will wait and see. But keep in mind that we will pay for most of TF-2000 with Turkish liras, Americans pay in US dollars and Brits pay in pounds. If things go like that 4x package of TF-2000 will cost under a billion $ per ship.

Don't take numbers seriously they are given as an example. Nobody knows exactly how much a TF-2000 or TF-4500 will cost in US dollars. But national contribution is so high that a high exchange rate(Lira/dollar) is becoming an advantage for those projects. So don't be surprised if TF-2000 costs...

This is not true. I asked many people about this from STM and Armerkom. Financial analysis shows that currently, a TF-4500 costs close(relatively) to a TF-2000. I would rather have a TF-2000 at 800 million than to have a TF-4500 at 600 million. Cost-effectiveneswise TF-2000 is a better choice...

It seems like L3 gave a guarantee for export restrictions.

It depends it produces more power at take off but its critical altitude is lower. @30k feet it produces 115hp PD-170 produces 130hp. It seems like Akıncı-C will operate at 20000~ feet. I think PD-222 is also very suitable for TB-3.

Cruise speed(0.6 mach) and maximum speed(0.8-0.9 mach) are two different metrics. Most of the time aircraft fly lower than their maximum speed to conserve fuel. 5-hour flight endurance is also calculated at MTOW with cruise speed.

Greece is training and arming terrorists nothing new.

Well, Haftar knows he will lose elections so there will be a war.

A joint military drill with the Russian Black Sea fleet in the sea of islands might be a good message. Also if this happens expect Russia to go hard on Greece.

OF course possible why not? But don't expect 25-30km designation ranges.
