    For example, you know the location of an S-300 launcher 200km away. You can launch Kemankes it will go to the coordinates with its autopilot and lock on to the S-300 launcher with its ATA capability. You don't need a data link.

    Live Conflict Ukraine-Russia War

    I don't think the "allies" of Ukraine want Ukraine to win the war. They want Russia to be stuck in Ukraine similar to Afghanistan. The longer you fight the more resilient Russia will be. A war of attrition is good for the allies of Ukraine, but not for Ukraine. Russia will throw more manpower...

    Cenk and the sounding rocket (SR-1) have the same solid-fuel engine. The big missile (It seems like it has a 1250-1350mm diameter) we see in the video might be Tufan (Şimşek-1 launching vehicle).

    True, İbrahim Kalın is a known Stratfor asset. His code name was "TR 326" while the code name of Sezgin Tanrıkulu is "TR 705". The Stratfor-CIA link is undeniable.

    Mehmet Şimşek and Erdogan agreed on everything but the interest rate. Şimşek wants to increase the interest rate to %25, effectively tripling it. Erdogan reportedly made some concessions but he feels %25 is too high for him.

    Yes, he might be appointed as the new defense minister. He is one of the names in circulation. He is pro-national defense industry and he is an enemy of FETO. He will probably silence commanders that want foreign weapon systems like F-16s and actively root out Gulenists from the armed forces.
