Do we really need EU to help us militarily when we are already a NATO member? But it seems that EU needs Türkiye militarily more than Türkiye needs EU. So as our saying goes: If you enter a Hamam (Turkish Bath) you will sweat. If EU needs us then they have to treat us with member privileges...

https://turdef.com/article/gabya-class-frigates-get-atmaca-anti-ship-missiles Four modernised Gabya Class frigates to receive Atmaca missiles in place of their old and shorter range Harpoons. This means that these four ships will be with the fleet for a while yet. Within the project, 3 Ada...

Bro, In true sense of the word the raw materials would be the “constituents” of a finished article. If S Koreans provided the silicone and/or boron carbide materials to be sandwiched in Roketsan facilities then they can be called raw materials too. Since these materials may have to be shaped...

As per this tweet, Roketsan finally came clean and clarified the situation. quote: ALTAY tanks equipped with new generation armour developed and produced by ROKETSAN Ballistic Protection Center (BKM) will be delivered to the Turkish Armed Forces. ROKETSAN, which sourced some raw materials from...

The first of two reactors built by Framatom/EDF, was installed end of 2024. But the work has slowed down due to cost spiralling up. So relations between UK and France regarding the power station is strained to say the least. Original forecast was 18 billion GBP. It is at over 35billion now. And...

Bro, initial cost estimations with early 2000‘s GPB rates for the upgrade was 500million, and it was with hydraulic catapult and matching arrester wires for which the ship was constructed accordingly. Later it was thought to upgrade it to employ an EMALS. That is when price of 1billion then to...

I agree with the first part of your sentence. But both carriers were built with provisions to operate with CATOBAR should the STOVL system proves to be inefficient. It is almost like FFBNW. The construction of the deck, under deck and overall systems are ready to accept the fitting of a catapult...

GE-CT7-8 series is a more powerful engine. It can develop up to 3000HP. Previously I had mentioned that we could redevelop the T700 engine we are building for our Blackhawks in to this engine as there was a clause in the license agreement to allow that. Where much heavier lift and higher...

We haven’t even started on the MLU of the remainder of our Barbaros Class ships. 1. Optimistically it could be because they want to see if what they have done on TCG Orucreis has improved the ship’s overall performance to a level that would warrant the remainder to be upgraded as well. 2...

Yes İ do. It must be IOS related. Mac OS is not affected.

upgraded new f35 coming. plus twin engined F35 = F55 a new upgraded f22 to come as well all from the mouth of Mr Trump

Yes ! I have the same problem on my I pad here. No problem on my Mac or on my android. It really started after an update.

There is a sword that US is waving above our heads called CAATSA. This is essentially to stop other countries buying from Russia, Iran and North Korea. These 3 countries are the basis of CAATSA. China is not among them. Weirdly CAATSA is applied to countries that US can get its teeth in to...

simple answer to your question is : Yes! Mostly. detailed answer is: At the time when we were producing the TS1400 engine, there were parts that needed to be outsourced. Also there were materials that needed to be outsourced. The top notch, first tier quality materials and parts that were...

I like your optimism. But only recently the TF6000 was delayed more than 6-7 months because of a sale of a simple part being blocked by our so called allies, and had to be made locally. (Dr Aksit‘s words) There are still many parts that depend on foreign input. Many local companies that produce...

You are both missing important points. @Bilge adam reis , 1. TF6000 has already been fired. It has been tested over 100 times. It has been pulled apart and reassembled and fired again. 2. An engine like TF6000, at it’s first firing, would probably give a thrust of 55-65% of aimed final thrust...

Under the agreement, Turkey has full marketing and intellectual rights of the T-129 helicopter. But not of the foreign sourced components of the helicopter like the engines. The transmission was developed and built jointly by Tusas and Leonardo. Turkey probably has full rights over that too. We...

Apart from Attack helicopters becoming natural and easy targets for drones and many air defence systems, T-129 has certain deficiencies that were subject for complaints. Being light and weak armoured were some of them. It had balancing issues. The force really had it’s hearts set in a heavy...
