    Yes, and it is coming to an end. For example, in Germany AfD is under surveillance. Greece closed down the Golden Dawn. I can list more.

    Egypt Could Be KF-X's New Customer

    As far as I know, Korea doesn't have patented single crystal turbine blade production technology. What they are talking about is a production under a license. USA rejected giving the modern AESA technology so Koreans enlisted the help of Israel(ELTA Systems) and trying to develop it locally...

    When EOKA doubles its votes it is the winning party regardless of who rules the country. The government can't turn a blind eye to them anymore.

    Egypt Could Be KF-X's New Customer

    Egypt is doing the right thing with the Rafale purchase. American fighters come with huge strings attached. Russian fighters are unreliable. Fighters like Gripen and K-FX have major American subsystems and comes with the same problem of buying American hardware. Rafale is ITAR free and seems...

    I don't think a factory is needed. Nearly all of the parts will be distributed to different Turkish subcontractors aka Yan Sanayi. So what BMC needs is a final assembly line. BTW IP rights of the engines belong to SSB, not BMC(excluding 600hp engine).

    Egypt Could Be KF-X's New Customer

    Egypt is gearing up for intervention against Ethiopia because of the Millenium Dam. I don't know how this will go. I think Egypt is being double played and jebaited. Israel and UAE are also planning to open a new Suez channel between Eilat and Ashdod to carry gulf oil and gas and Asian goods to...

    Kargu-2 is not fully autonomous. There are different levels of autonomy. Kargu is highly autonomous but the user gives the engagement order.

    Yes, I'm sure. They are not in the back section. They are in the front section. They are not "counterweights". They are there to minimize vibrations. Counterweights are installed when the vehicle is unbalanced and you need to adjust the center of gravity. m=mass c=damper coefficient...

    No matter who is in charge this can't be done. Defense companies are private companies that have shares in the stock exchange. You can't just magically order them to stop existing. And from 1974 to today independent of which party is ruling, or economic crisis it always has gone in one...

    TR UAV/UCAV Programs | Anka - series | Kızılelma | TB - series

    You are wrong. Anka can fire multiple Cirit, MAM-L, and Umtas-L missiles at the same time. I guess what you are trying to say is firing at different targets without external illumination. And no it can't be done it is a limitation of laser guidance and it has nothing to do with the platform...

    Of course, there is. Before you write an article you do a literature search. It is similar to that. It doesn't mean we copied it. Fuse is fuse and air brake is air brake. Their history goes way back. What really matters is the electronic section and it cant be copied.

    At some point, Turkiye was close to 900 billion$ GDP. Turkiye will continue to grow, it is recovering the losses of the last 5-7 years but this won't translate into income equality. Turkish growth=Turkish oligarchs getting richer while average people suffer.

    I think Erdo has to go. 20 years at the helm is not healthy in any country. I will vote for Mansur Yavaş if he runs for the presidency if he is not then I will vote for Meral Akşener. If she is not running then Ekrem İmamoğlu. I don't like Ekrem personally but Erdo has to go even if the next...

    There is a modernization project for M113s. The engine will be changed with a hybrid engine and the vehicle will be turned into an unmanned tracked armored vehicle. 133 vehicles(It is probably 1 million for each IFV+spares and product guarantee) for 150 million$ is really cheap. If you want to...

    FNSS-Aselsan partnership has a shot to win the Leo2A4 upgrade contract after BMC couldn't deliver anything even though they are given so much time and resources. BMC has been working on the project since 2018-2019 I guess. The project was given to them.

    This is a guidance system that uses fins as control surfaces. It is similar to the guidance kit that Cabatlı posted above. Although this type o kits offer good accuracy, they are expensive and can't be used in mass. The kit that I posted uses an air brake mechanism and a simpler IMU rather than...
