We will, the idea is to build quite a number of OPV's until then we need interim OPV's (Burak class)

At first I had the same, WTF why would we equip old ships like Burak class with ADVENT. But thinking further it makes sense, Burak class would become part of the radar network and get the combined radar picture with all tactical data. The biggest force of the Turkish navy is slowly shaping...

Haftar stepped down as the commander of the self-styled Libyan Arab Armed Forces, he is most likely going to be presidential candidate in the December elections. What Haftar could not reach by force he may try to get with money (UAE money) by buying votes of tribes

It's not only testing, some of the critical parts have to be "Turkified" as well. Companies use foreign components to speed up design / development of systems and once the proto is working as desired they put effort in replacing those critical foreign parts by having Turkish parts designed for it.

Well yes and no. Yes on the part that F35 is really advanced fighter jet (although it still has a number of issues to be solved), but everything is instantly negated by the plane being an open book for the US. They can access even the mission computer. Do we really want that, can we really...

Distance is the least delaying as signal goes at near lightspeed, delaying is all the relay parts, base stations, satellite in-between. Delay of signal is inevitable, you cannot have operator to remote control a tank at Realtime with zero delay. Even with telephone (voice) transmission over a...

I seriously doubt that! We are not talking only about voice data but serious amount of visual data. You have already 100 milliseconds delay when you talk with dect telephones to each other in the same room over a base station in the same room.

I wonder how they will handle the uplink delays if signals go by satcom (there is always a delay of some seconds)

You seem to be a dude who likes to share his opinions as fact. Remember, everything is "impossible" until someone comes and shows that the impossible is not impossible.

EU has a population of 446million, if they can't muster up the manpower for an EU army. They can easily put an army of 1mln, it is all a matter of will and organizing

IMO NATO is cracking already for a long time. New alliances are already in forming with AUKUS. EU will in the end form her euro army. I wonder what Turkey's position will be as that is a bit unclear at the moment

That's an opinion. I'm not saying you are wrong, but I am neither saying you are right. Let's give it a chance and let Baykar proof it. Would be something if they manage.

Is it? Than why they have ceremonials for the smallest things like first cutting of steal, hangar rollout etc. etc. all political picture of look we did it message.

PR stunt is not the bad thing, in the west the companies do that to get in the picture, in Turkey the politicians do it to get in the picture (tiny difference)

I was seeing you flying hahaha, sorry I had to make the remark. You won't see Hurjet flying before they milked out all show makings / PR stunts like roll out ceremonials etc. etc.

It's not for use in cities, common stop all this drama. We need to finish off PKK in all parts in and outside Turkey and as soon as possible as we can't afford a second hendek issue in Turkey. You guys are probably in the mood that Turkey is terror free like Belgium And please don't bring up...

We have Kargi in development which has also radiation seeker. That project is kept secret and we do not know whether it is already in inventory or not.

Exactly, maybe it is already in inventory. Not everything is revealed.

I think light scout/attack helicopters like Kiowa lost their value to drones, hence why the US retired them at a relative young age and shipped them to junk collecting countries like Greece. I mean what is the worth of KIOWA against a TB2 (armed with Sungur ATAS)

Nope the defense spendings they rise yearly with aprox 10%, and currently our inflation is about 20% So if the rise in defense spending does not even meet the inflation than it means we go down in spending
