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.

This should be approached with caution unless the Egyptian government takes concrete steps regarding Libya and Eastmed. Let them buy overpriced and downgraded western products if necessary.

Bids are gathered from the companies. After the evaluation of the bids, a winner will be announced. This might happen after an SSIK(Defense Industry Executive Committee) meeting which will be chaired by President Erdogan. So look for the date of the next SSIK.

Guys the development process is the same as the Akıncı development process. It is not a mock-up. It will probably be used for ground tests. Probably static load tests will be done on that prototype.

No, it means TAI will be delivering nearly half of the shares to GE (GE owns %46 of TEI) why would TAI do that? Currently, TAI owns %100 of TRMotor TAI owns %50.5 of TEI Kale owns %50+1(you can call it a golden share) of TAEC RR owns %50-1 share of TAEC The next agreement will probably be...

This is what RR forced us to do. Get BMC out of the deal.

It indicates basic swarm capability as the idea of artillery/rocket artillery is to saturate an area with cheap shells and rockets. A textbook example is last Palestine vs Israel battle. When you apply it to a point target like ships with advanced 3D planning software, net-centric combat...

It seems like real studies on the national CMC turbine blade and duplex fuel injector project started on 30 January 2021 as a Ph.D. program. The full text can be read here. https://tei.com.tr/uploads/docs/1606310089_teigtutubitak2244jobpostingnov2020.pdf Those studies can bring us up to the...

When the mistake is obvious I have no choice but to correct it. I explain in-depth how SToT and DToT differ in cruise missiles compared to artillery. How we can't compare Atmaca that follow 3D waypoints to artillery missiles and shells with ballistic trajectories.

https://www.savunmasanayist.com/trmotorun-tum-hisseleri-tusasa-gecti/ TAI/TUSAS acquired all the shares of TRMotor. Now TAI/TUSAS owns both TRMotor and TEI. TAI/TUSAS partnering with TAEC(RR&Kale) means all of the companies can work together without issue.
