Fyi, it's corroborate

Wew lad, the part about being forced to withdraw from tenders is huge if true

Hear me out, İstikbal Savaşçısı and english name as Future Fighter

Is GM literal translation for NLOS? "Görüşdışı menzili".

The only relevant possibility I think, which is really just a stretch, is if there was some imminent war threat that required hunting down nuclear subs in black sea or whatever and we needed to quickly obtain these ships because other nations can't really have their own fleet there so they'd be...

You can check the antidepressant usage statistics as an indicator

Seems to fly way more stable than Gökbey

Was expecting either this or İstiklal, also translates well

I imagine it's a pod and not internal anyways

But KE has the advantage of being a cheaper unmanned platform it wouldn't have the upkeep costs and such of warthog and its loss wouldn't be devastating

It's clearly built specifically for TB2 and TB3 to give them more range as those can't carry most of the heavier longer range munitions we have

We have seen a model that has gimbal flir, but to deliver gps guided munitions etc it doesn't need that, does it? Like it can still fly and operate in the clean configuration with only internal bays for missions where stealth is most important, I guess. Still would be happier if it had the slot...

We have around 300 fighters. If we try to make 300 TFX it will cost insane amounts to build and operate. 100-150 TFX and 300 something drones would likely be cheaper to operate and UAV pilots are considerably easier to train than fighter pilots aren't they? I mean if we use quoted 100 million $...

There will always be external players trying to undermine you. A properly governed country should have a robust economy that can withstand such conditions regardless.

Maybe as an alternative to Meteksan Mildar / Longbow Radar?

One thing that always confuses me is where the fuel is included. Is it like 6 tons dry weight + fuel + 1.5 tonnes munitions payload, or is fuel included to 1.5t figure

How does it work with the slat armor or are they in different places

Does Altay have reactive armor?

I don't see the issue, but nose being elevated should allow FLIR to move and see more angles, an maybe it has better aerodynamics than the previous design with a cavity for electro optics

Don't forget the old clemencau class. That ship was lighter than TCG Anadolu with CATOBAR and conventional propulsion.
