    TR HÜRJET-Advanced Jet Trainer/ Light attack aircraft

    A valid and good point. I really doubt anybody will be allowed on board as the ship has already sailed. From this moment on it will be supplier and the customers. Naturally, depending on political necessities and nature of the buyers‘ relation with Turkey, there might be some perks and some...

    Israel Elbit awarded four Romanian Armed Forces contracts

    Looks like Elbit single handedly overhaul the combat and EW capabilities of Romanian Armed Forces. Well done.

    That was supposed to be the point of my post. Less dependent because of our efforts. It lost its point though in a joyous moment of mine and took a euphoric turn, I must admit :giggle:

    Turkey now ranks at 19th among Global arms importers and her global arms import share dropped from 2.4% to 1.3% . This is a 49% decrease from the previous period. I don’t how you guys read this, but I see a less dependent armed forces.

    So as long as the HW and SW is capable of interacting you can develop any SW and its iterations for required applications. And this, in theory, can go all the way up to autonomous planes, not tomorrow, not next year, not within the decade but eventually, right?

    @Zafer Here’s what I gathered on hardware - software relation (interaction?) This bit is from 2014. It involves a new software upgrade for the B2 bomber and it was a part of The Flexible Strike program back then. Northrop, as a part of the program, eliminated all stand alone SW and combined...

    Bro, when it comes to the US military, I can never be so sure. If some bright and career driven guy in, say Pentagon, can gather some intelligent guys around him and can gain some support from some ambitious senators (remember, the senators love to control the US military) they can sell this to...

    We definitely will be but as far a as I know (not much, I’ll admit), it not only gives the AI independent autonomous execution of the war but also eliminates the human factor off the loop on decision and planning phases as well. I doubt that our military would be willing to remove itself from...

    Well, this is a brand new warfare doctrine and just like every other major Air Force we will go through a learning curve as there are not exact numbers known to apply. Obviously, Turkey has its own commitments as much as the US has its own global one. Let’s see.

    I found the original news. The the notional CCA (Uncrewed Collaborative Aircraft) numbers in the original piece breaks down as 2 for each of NGAD (Next-Generation Air Dominance) fighters and 2 for each of 300 F-35s. Hence the figure of 1000 CCA. But…None of these numbers and ratios are absolute...
