I dont think we need 200 TB2 for reconnaissance etc. It is insane we paid 1 billion for them. We wont be fighting Armenia the next time. Our next adversaries will be much more capable. We need serious stuff. Both the son-in-law and Haluk Görgün need to wake up from their dreams. Still no...

Well, this is their majestatic game plan against the air force combo of Greece and Israel. As also backed by ex-colonel morons with a stick at hand on TV, 200 TB2 and 50 Akinci in our inventory will ensure that we prevail! But seriously, to those of you defending these rubbish tin cans, pls...

Well, the TS1400 has first been ignited in 2018! Not yet in serial production!!! It is planned in 2026, probably later. So how come a much more complex motor which has not yet been ignited, will go in serie in in less then 7 years? I'd rather say in the period 2035-2040. And 6th gen version...

But of course an alternative way to protect our country from Greece and Israel might be if we cover100% of our oil and gas need from US at a double price! Then Trump would probably prevent them from attacking us. Go figure which alternative is less costly!

This is yet again another failure of our decision makers. As we allowed Finland joining Nato we should have only demanded these motors. Those ultra-competent guys know better (!) than me but soon after CAATSA I would have agreed with RR (no IP or other negotiations) and ten years after in 2028...

I forgot to add, Spain can send us some patriots. But by that time most damage will be inflicted.

Dear members, forget about NATO! I cannot believe that you believe NATO will help us. NATO will still stay among themselves as NATO. It won't end because they don't help us against Israel. We should be happy if they don't help Israel, but US and Greece will certainly do. Greece can become active...

Well, we certainly won't build 50 batteries of Steal Dome to protect Hamas! If Israel is just after Hamas, then the whole problem would be easy to solve for us. They want to divide Syria and establish there a PKK state. So for a modest benefit for them they are putting us to a great...

Because of the mistakes made in the past, Turkey may not be in the best form currently to respond to Israel/US the way they deserve. But our eyes have been opened, when those people in Israel whom (or whose relatives) we have accepted and protected from persecution in the past are calling for...

Btw. after attacking Iran Israel realized they can do the same to us with a bit more difficulty, but certainly within their capability. That‘s why they put Iran aside for now. So my humble suggestion: stop building patrol vessels and mugem. Instead build AD systems, ballistic missiles etc like...

Excellent analysis. It is a pity we have beaten about the bush since 2018 and did not upgrade our air force. Not even f16 modernization was completed. Now comes the penalty for it.

A question to those forum members with military knowledge: Defence ministry says they are ready 24/7. Say we send our troups to north Syria against YPG/SDF and Israel sends its jets to bomb them. To what extent our AD systems like Hisar/Korkut etc. can protect our soldiers? Or should we then...

If Arabs have any intelligence and dignity, they should stop funding US and instead fund Turkey's military projects.

Anyone heard about Flamingo cruise missile developed by a group of friends in construction, game design, and architecture in Ukraine (according to Wikipedia)? It seems to be a joke! The missile has a 3000km range and 1100kg war head. Accuracy 14m. Developed in 3 years! Now my question. We have...

Also, now that I think about it, I realize nothing of significance has been achieved in terms of defence capabilities between 1950 and 2000, and maybe 2010. Also not much in terms of industry, technology, etc. They begun research in the nuclear area in 1960s but nothing came out of it. Amazing...

Without US help and Israel's nukes, we will prevail over Israel even if their air force is superior to us. Because we will eventually destroy their airports and runways, and then the war will switch to land and the sea where we have an advantage. But Israel will get substantial US help, and if...

I agree with you, we need more Istif frigates and TF2000 destroyers. But they won't cancel it, as it is sort of a prestige project. It may still be useful for places like Libya, Somalia etc. It is quite big for a drone carrier and has enough place, so instead of 32VLS they should consider 64 or...

Currently this is indeed the case. And they are a formidable enemy. In one sense this is good, we will need to work much harder to improve. In other sense it can be lethal for us. One thing is clear. It all started with „one minute“. Again coming back to my motto. You only poke a sleeping lion...

This is indeed unacceptable and unbelievable. Indonesia should have obtained the two after our two batches. It seems they don't view a naval war likely with Greece under Trump. Still, I don't understand many things they are doing. I thought at least Navy's decisions were good, but was proven...

I don't agree with what you are trying to imply. AKP has nothing to do with zionism (btw. I am a Zafer party voter). This is conspiracy theory like hypothesis. AKP tried to look friendly to Europe initially and of course tried not to anger US to stay in power. But fundamentally given their...
