4 Altay hulls on the production line.

Those same vehicles are in production line for the last 2-3 years, still waiting for their engines. Another KKK development failure.

Alpha 6x6 for Spanish needs.

No, i'll be badmouthing when our tankers burn to death in their M60A3s in 5 years. Turkish industry is unable to deliver the said state of the art tank for the last 5 years. It's become Schroedinger's tank at this point. As long as it doesn't get delivered, it's state of the art. That's not how...

They touted the August 30 line for months in all media in official interviews and pundits, even national media. Let's get something clear, delivering 3 tanks to the army was never anything more than a token show of belief in the project, a way of saying "things being put on the right track"...

If you look at it from VLS count, it's basically a 5x increase. Navy currently have 96 VLS cells, it will have 560 once 8 Istifs and 4 TF2000s are delivered, and 944 if 4 more TF-2000s are delivered, 10x increase. Add the 10 Hisars, and we will have enough ships to cover everywhere we need to be.

That's the second(or third) batch. This should be the full squadron listing: So, Panter(Panther), Şeytan(Devil), Korsan(Pirate), Şahin(Hawk), Şafak(Dawn) which originally operated F-4s but then transitioned to RF-4s, as well as Ejder(Dragon) and Hançer(Dagger). So that's 7 F-4 squadrons in...

Still think the same? "Commander of the Istanbul Naval Shipyard, Rear Admiral Erdinç Yetkin, revealed the MUGEM (Milli Uçak Gemisi or National Aircraft Carrier) is set to be launched around 2027–2028"

Well that's weird.

Turkish drones look into places all the time. It might be as usual as following a traffic stop, supporting a special forces operation, or even prepatory actions for a larger operation. There's no way to know.

S-400 is not really effective against these threat types and more importantly Turkish S400s are not deployed or possibly even operational. At best they are staying in hangars and our operators are not trained in real conditions; at worst, they are sitting still gathering dust. He doesn't. He...

It doesn't actually. Just that there's nothing concrete so far.

"United States Department of State Washington, D.C. 20520 August 20, 2025 The Honorable Chris Pappas House of Representatives Washington, DC 20515 Dear Mr. Pappas: Thank you for your August 7 letter to Secretary Rubio regarding the Countering America's Adversaries Through Sanctions Act (CAATSA)...

Only if we could actually see it in action after 10 years. Until then, it doesn't exist and such twin 35mms stay, so no realistic emplacement of missiles next to guns.

FACs are multi use platforms, this isn't.

TRLG-122 on a Unimog on sea target. I think we can miniaturize this a bit more. forgot the link:

Flyaway cost is only like 1/5 of an aircraft's actual cost. There are multiple metrics to figure this out and project some numbers, these metrics include even the fuel burned and the inflation in to the mix to come up with a lifecycle cost. Canadian budget office came to 74 billion CAD for 88...

Hardly, we have ballistic missiles that carry at least 2 times the TNT value in service today. We plan to introduce ones that carry 5 times that. Gazap is the largest and most destructive conventional bomb we can use from our puny F-16s, that's it. A thermobaric bomb is not a strategic threat...

FLIR there should be retractable; and even if not, it can simply be removed for special usecases like sending bunker busters and thermobaric bombs. If we have air superiority to send a slow moving non maneuverable drone like Akıncı over an area, we can send a TB2 as well to lase the target...

Nope. Nothing new so far after the MoU that was signed in Idef. Detailing and finalizing the deal still can take a lot of time.
