True, because it is designed from scratch. APKWS is an upgrade of existing 70mm rockets.

We should announce that we won't recognize any license limitations regarding US hardware if such sanctions pass. We should completely renew our F-16 fleet with Ozgur+national Aesa radar and buy a good amount of national AA missiles. All of the structural parts can be easily produced if we stop...

Developing nukes is not a difficult task developing a nuclear reactor is much harder. Turkey doesn't need any help to develop nuclear weapons.

PD-222 is more suitable for short take-offs as more power is needed at take-off. PD-170 and PD-222 are form fit and interchangeable with each other so you can remove PD-170 and place PD-222 in its place.

Advent is software+consoles+datalinks I think advent is a no-brainer for all of our navy ships.

The monthly export figure is expected to pass 20 billion$ historical high this month.

The reason is testing. Batu project is moving faster than expected. First BMCPower needs to complete the tests on the bench than 10k km mobility tests on the Altay. This takes a huge time. Don't expect a powerpack to start running tests on the Altay before 2023 and don't expect a fully qualified...

NATO won't come into play ever even if Russia targets the Turkish Grand National Assembly. What will happen is, a lot of NATO members will reject the invoking of article 5 in favor of Turkey and NATO will dissolve.

I agree with you. But Erdo thinks Turkish goods will sell very well. Like defense industry products, ships, automobiles, machinery, textile products, steel, chemical products, and refined petroleum products etc. Erdo also thinks if minimal wage stays under 300$ investors will invest in the real...

14 batteries x3 launchers=42 launchers. 42 launchers x6 missile 252 missile. I expect the final figure to reach somewhere between 25-30 batteries in the future. The requirement was 90 launchers/30 batteries. I expect the delivery of the first 14 batteries to be completed in 3 years.

Gökbey is moving on really smoothly. The first three choppers will be delivered next year and seem like over 60 helicopters will be ordered for Turkish needs and negotiations with Azerbaijan are going on. I can see this helicopter is selling like crazy.

There are a lot of supporters from both sides who don't celebrate the victory day or celebrate it just because they have to.

Erdogan is trying to increase the dollar to 10TL and decrease the interest rate to %15 as step 1 and lira to 12TL and interest to %10 as step two. Workers will pay a huge price for this policy. Turkish workers will be cursed with poverty for at least a decade. If successful TR will increase...

Sungur has nothing to do with Stinger. It is not further developed from Stinger. Stinger is not a base product for Sungur. Sungur and Stinger have nothing to do with each other. Neither propulsion, nor missile geometry and control, or guidance, or warhead is similar. The only similarity is they...

Roketsan did an amazing job with Sungur. It will sell like crazy.

Interesting video record from "old CATS" at teknofest. 3:46:52-3:47:10 CATS captures an airliner taking-off from İstanbul airport. CATS is flying on a TB2 above Atatürk airport. Distance from Atatürk Airport to İstanbul Airport is 30-40km.

We will wait and see. But keep in mind that we will pay for most of TF-2000 with Turkish liras, Americans pay in US dollars and Brits pay in pounds. If things go like that 4x package of TF-2000 will cost under a billion $ per ship.

Don't take numbers seriously they are given as an example. Nobody knows exactly how much a TF-2000 or TF-4500 will cost in US dollars. But national contribution is so high that a high exchange rate(Lira/dollar) is becoming an advantage for those projects. So don't be surprised if TF-2000 costs...

This is not true. I asked many people about this from STM and Armerkom. Financial analysis shows that currently, a TF-4500 costs close(relatively) to a TF-2000. I would rather have a TF-2000 at 800 million than to have a TF-4500 at 600 million. Cost-effectiveneswise TF-2000 is a better choice...

It seems like L3 gave a guarantee for export restrictions.
