I know the difference between “J”and “E” versions and listed my opinion for the newer and yet still 20 to 25 years old aircraft. With a modification project pretty much any plane can be converted to fireplanes. But considering the size of such a behemoth plane, it’s also proven that such large...

How is that “unique” sir? They practically stole James Cameron’s space marines concept from Aliens 😆 Seriously though, getting real time biometric readouts and the situational awareness/POV of every soldier in the platoon on command console must be a tremendous tactical advantage

Dude first thing I did was to search for saver. com but living the US, it brought up this https://saver.com/ a stupid online shopping app or site or whatever. I forgot to add .tr at the end :ROFLMAO: :ROFLMAO: Thanks for clearing it out (y)

Well I just said TuAF should opt out because - they’re still 20-25 years old aircraft - their engines are different and would require a new logistic inventory - And probably TuAF would have to go through an entire avionics renovation and a fuselage and body overhaul. Other than that, to my...

I don’t see how C-130J would fit in the TuAF as it’s almost a different and older platform but A-400Ms of Spanish Air Forces we definitely must go for. Turkish A400 fleet, as it turns out, was already working at full capacity with 10 aircraft and when you consider the fact that 2 of them are as...

Alright, from what I understand this SAHA is not a corporate but more of an NGO which consists universities, industrial members from various sectors and even SMEs (KOBİ in Turkish) and they call their enterprise as Cluster. My question is, did they form a company to design this gun or they’re...

Thanks to my interest in WW2, I was aware of the vastness of the common geography both countries existed on but when it was put in perspective like this o_O

Just to refresh our memories, Mr. Kalkavan‘s shipyard sent a complaint letter to Başbakanlık Teftiş Kurulu (Office of Prime Ministry Inspection Committee) on the ground that they were not invited to tender despite they applied for a bid and the tender would not be a fair one as it would...

Lol. Bro I don’t know why you brought this up but if I know my people those ”çay molaları” accompanied by “pisküvi” will never end :ROFLMAO: Just kidding. TR service branches have enough discipline to control such a simple “luxury” which I believe would also boost the crew morale.

Stand corrected. Thank you (y) So it was their choice.

Ehm, I don’t think I rubbed in anything or forced/coerced anyone to cooperate with Turkey, not to mention that I don’t represent any Turkish agency and directorate. Mine was merely a hope that Turkey could supply their needs and maybe cooperate with them if they choose so. I wish my best for...

It’d be really sad if they pass Hisar and Siper but tbh wouldn’t gonna loose sleep on it since I am a staunch believer in self-sufficient defense industry which should always have a bearing on furnishing our armed forces first and maintain the highest level of readiness and then worry about...

I see. Naturally I don’t know whether Indonesian Navy satisfied with their choice but Ada class probably lost the tender since it was not proven back then And honestly they were still developing and building their own ships of the class. UAV, well I hear you. I’ll take Bayraktar any day vs most...

Ismail Demir also mentioned that it may lead to building new facilities in case new purchase requests come up. I think he meant they may establish a new joint venture company regarding sales to a 3rd party. So perhaps they’re planning to open a gate to new markets from Kazakhstan?! edit: it’s...

Maybe Zafer should start a map of copycat sales 😆

Could you please freshen up my memory. Which opportunity you are referring to?

Wow 18th century Royal Navy press gang , eat your bloody heart out mate!

Although I’m as much enthusiastic as you are to see the Turkish defense industry becoming more of a global player, I’m also content to know that we will finally meet our domestic demand and gain some essential national defense capabilities which in some case we totally are lack of :) Trust me...

And what about TF6000? The number mentioned (500 units) does not leave too much desire to implement on KE. Plus, this news is from November 2021. A war happened since then. Are there any developments the engine selection for KE?

Awesomeness! Thank you for confirming and further elaborating on a crude post of mine from the past in more detail and doing it with an elegant manner too (y) And while on it, here’s my two cents on recent developments: Get! Get anything you set yours eyes on while you can lay your hands on...
