    TF35000 first fire is likely in Q4 2026. We will see the real deal in IDEF 2027. I think they will show one of the several prototypes there.

    Live Conflict Pakistan-India Conflict (2025)

    I think it is logical to de-escalate the situation. It is crystal clear that Pakistan is well prepared for this. IMHO, India tried to get the upper hand before Pakistan receives J-35s in 2026, hoping RAFALEs and SU-30MKIs will have the upper hand and force Pakistan into some kind of a deal. This...

    Live Conflict Pakistan-India Conflict (2025)

    FM of Pakistan says J-10 shot down IAF fighters. Bro 800 vs 1200, the difference is %50. This is not a difference of few TRMs. I have no doubts about the PAF, they are better trained and more professional side in this clash.

    Gezgin block 1 weighs 1130-1140kg/2500 lbs ( It is related to F-16 pylon load limits. I'm nearly certain, but it is not officially confirmed, so take it as a speculation if you will). Kara Atmaca can reach 500km and has a weight of 890kg, which roughly translates to 2000 lbs, so this might also...

    I think the Navy needs a brand new oceanographic research vessel with a cutting-edge sea bed mapping capability and new ocean going research vessel can provide this capability.

    Live Conflict Pakistan-India Conflict (2025)

    I have said this many times in the Turkish defense forum. RAFALE is not a cutting-edge 4.5th gen fighter. It has a very small (838 T/R module) GaAs AESA radar, and it can't take full advantage of the Meteor missile. Other than the SPECTRA EW system, it doesn't have any shining features. F-16V is...

    Gezgin will be in blocks. The first block is a joint cruise missile that both land, air, and naval forces will use. There is a length and weight limit due to air launch capability.

    Permanent magnet or any kind of electrical motor is child's play for the Turkish industry. The real problem is a compact nuclear reactor that will fit inside the submarine. We should cooperate with Pakistan and any willing third party. Pakistan has valuable nuclear reactor know-how. Pakistan has...
