    And I think aside from being kicked out of F35 program, the driving force behind the ”domestic and national” goal was get rid of that doubt constantly dangling above our heads at first place.

    Quantitatively European military is ‘inadequate‘ at best. They will eventually will go for ready products. Turkish military output is NATO standard. So, in the end they will have to but I was was just trying to point out that historically French are known for their pure European ideal. They are...

    I believe Bias will always be there, no matter what. France, however, still insists on refusing any non-EU arms suppliers involvement regarding the upgrade of European militaries. Like you pointed out, new joint company would bear European signature on it and it will give us access to Europe.

    I’ve seen few Italian X feed where some poster were all for it and considered the move very smart. They were also praising the Akinci’s versatility and Turkish weapon systems in general.

    Still in the “rumor stage” but i guess they’ve been gazing upon wide range selection of weapons Akıncı offers with a ‘wow!’, SOM-J in particular. Their Reapers don’t have the capability to fire cruise missiles.
