    TR Defence Exports & Updates

    Turkiye exported 4.3 billion worth of defense goods and services in 2022. I expect the Turkish defense industry to force the 10 billion milestone in 2023. Baykar emerged as an export champion exporting 1.18 billion worth of defense goods and services.

    TR Defence Exports & Updates

    Extremely bad decision. It will stop the momentum of flourishing small to medium businesses. Most of the time those companies transfer several experts from big companies(like Aselsan, Roketsan, etc.) and those experts transform the company. It will be bad for start-ups. Most of the time people...

    At high G maneuvers, AESA fails to jam the enemy RF source. This is not a problem for escort EW pods but it is a big problem for self-defense EW pods. Turkish Airforce will use Hava-SOJ for stand-off jamming, IHA-SOJ for escort jamming, and EHPOD for self-defense jamming.

    Yes, this is correct. Maximum diving speed, average cruise speed, and loitering speed are different though. When loitering it can reduce/throttle down its speed considerably.

    TR Oil & Gas Exploration Update & Discussion

    The gas has superb quality and it is extremely profitable especially compared to LNG but it is still not as profitable as Russian or Azerbaijani gas. Russian gas is dirt cheap for their own use but the Russians sell it at a good premium.

    Well, it is not that easy. Greek lobby, Armenian lobby, most of the Israeli&Jewish lobby, and Indian lobby is against us but it is true that GE has big interests in Turkiye and will defend us. BTW the US asked us to pay depot/storage costs of Turkish F-35s. This tells a lot about the current...

    TR Air-Force TF-X KAAN Fighter Jet

    Long-term acquisition of GE engines is a risky business. We should get something like 50-60 engines while we can and as soon as possible. We should stock them. Those will be enough to reach 2030+. The first TFX will be delivered in 2028-2029.

    TR Air-Force TF-X KAAN Fighter Jet

    I disagree. An incident with Greece or an operation in Syria is all it takes for the Senate to pass a resolution to stop engine deliveries to Turkiye. GE can't do anything but obey under those circumstances.
