Another news that contradicts the previous ones. Most recently Güler's statement saying they would all be new aircraft. Though recent history showed that his semi official remarks are hardly gospel. I've said before that RAF T1s are not at the end of their service life and Brits are just too...

That’s a bullseye! Indeed cruise missile accuracy.

I don't think so. It's the same angles and same location, but weather is a bit different. And Canister seems a bit longer, this could be a new variant of Tayfun with longer range. Longer video:

New Tayfun launch. 3rd launch of Tayfun if SSist is to be believed. Looks to be a longer variant?

You are oversimplifying things. Rafale is not any more bound by ITAR than Kaan is. Meteor is not a French missile, it's a European joint developed missile with French participation. It's not even yet clear if Gökhan even completed its ground tests.

Literally the hardest thing to achieve for a next gen fighter aircraft. It deserves a bit more than "maybe".

You are speaking on hypotheticals when we have the history to look to. After Turkey threatened war with Syria over Syria's basing of PKK and Öcalan, he first moved to Russia where he was granted asylum. He was invited by Greek MPs to Greece, but chose to go to Italy instead. Both Germany and...

And the Cobra II MRAP

After 5 years, we may have an answer. A Cobra 2 and a vehicle that looks a lot like Arma was seen in a Rwandan exercise. https://x.com/BuschModelar

Interesting news. Per MSB, Gabya Class TCG Gaziantep's 76mm OTO Melara Super Compact gun's worn out barrel was replaced with a MKE built 76mm gun barrel. Gabya Class frigates have the Mk-75 gun, which is a license built version made in the US. Thanks to Leonardo's decisions at the time and SSB...

Let's remain on the general topic regardless, as TurAF is no longer an F-35 user.

Bashing on F-35 is pretty expected nowadays, especially in Turkey, but by what's available, F-35 is the fighter aircraft with the best safety record in the planet in history. 1100 airframes, nearly a million flight hours and only 15 class A mishaps(requiring substantial repairs, involving loss...

New brochures for TF-2000, I Class, OPV and PN Milgem from ASFAT. https://asfat.com.tr/urunlerimiz?tab=deniz Thanks to Catfishblues.

He's lying. If it wasn't from yesterday, it was from the day before.

American soldiers were there with us in 2016. But in 2019 in Peace Spring, they pulled back from the operation area 3 days before with Trump's command.

Yes, looks like an ASW variant P72.

So many thoughts, so few words...

If we have the need of an SSN over an AIP SSK with quadruple the endurance, we probably also have the need for a carrier. What value does an SSN add over a large AIP SSK with VLS? Greater endurance over open seas. If we have a need to be present in the Indian Ocean with such a submarine, we...

Second time in a year now. It's definitely in the plans.

Something very interesting from NSPA, NATO's procurement agency. An RFP for 4 different articles of parts, dubbed "Miscellaneous Spare Parts used on EUROFIGHTER" and the end user is "Turkish Nation Customer"...
