This will be indeed very good for us and worth signing the contract under those terms but unfortunately, it won't get congress's approval. We need a miracle for this to happen.

We discussed this matter a lot. No new F-16 jets can be delivered before 2027-2028 unless the US agrees to set up a production line at TAI which is highly unlikely for 40 new fighters. There are fewer problems with the modernization of old F-16s. Serial modernization can be done rather quickly...

I hope congress denies the sale.

Italians should lobby the US for the export license. There are some influential Italians in the US.

Since the news comes from the Russian media I'm skeptical at the moment.

It is not just the car itself. TOGG comes with an entire ecosystem. For example, batteries will be used in house appliances, submarines, aircraft, EVs, energy storage solutions, etc. Software development for IOT (internet of things). Extraction and purification of rare earth elements...

TOGG is a project poised to succeed. It has everything to self-actualize. It is like Turkish drone projects you just can't go wrong with it.

We should work with Italians to get an export license for Pakistani T-129s.

That would be excellent. Those cargo planes can carry up to 150 tons of cargo, and has a big cargo area even bigger than C-5 Galaxy. We should immediately launch a project to upgrade them with Aselsan/Western avionics if they have Russian avionics. 4 An-124 will give us much-needed strategic...

One of the candidate shipyards failed to deliver its offer for the Milgem i class tender before the deadline(1 April) so upon the request of the shipyard the deadline is postponed another week to 8 April.

AVCI Gen II helmet is also nearly done.

It might be related to that. Under embargo conditions, acceptance tests were planned from the second half of 2025 and the full delivery for the first aircraft was planned for 2026 with all 4 delivered by the end of 2027. We might shave off one year from this schedule with the easing of the...

Don't be surprised if you see monthly export figures higher than 25 billion in the summer months. BTW first-quarter defense exports are around a billion. We might also hit 4billion+ yearly defense exports this year.

Germany is subsidizing its own product.

Iğneada has one of the most precious floodplain forest ecosystems in Europe. I hope they show utmost respect to the ecosystem while building the rocket range.

In a war, I will put my trust in Turkish TB2 rather than the US F-15. We know why Israel always negotiates for an "I" version of American products.

There won't be any PW contribution to TF-X national engine project. TRMotor, TAEC and TEI will be the main companies that will do the job. RR will provide technical support as the partner of KALE and GE will provide F-110 engines for prototypes. I doubt GE will be involved other than providing...

Because Kurds are their only hope to put Turkiye on the leash and among the Kurds, only PKK/YPG minority wants to confront Turkiye. The west doesn't want another big power on its doorstep and at the same time, their white soft asses are too precious so they throw other people under the bus. They...

Antanov is not a good choice as it has 4 engines. If a 2 engine version of Antonov can be developed then it will be a good alternative.

We shouldn't sell anything to Egypt unless Egypt takes favorable steps in Eastmed and Libya. This is not about the capabilities of weapons systems.
