Those capabilities don’t mean anything when the enemy has air superiority though. UCAVs are basically flying chickens against fighter jets. And Bangladeshi air force lacks fighters even against a country like Myanmar with their Su-30s and new Jf-17s. What they would really could use is a dual...

F-15EX made sense because ANG is already the biggest user of F-15C and EX is a suitable replacement for the type and the role. It also made great sense because development costs for it were already paid for by gulf countries.

I don’t think this is a rebuttal to Globes’ claim of a “temporary approval” and afaik was not what Israeli FM claimed. Anyhow, gov channels have time and time again showed that they will outright lie re trade with Israel, which is fine, it’s internal politics. This is a perfect foray into...

By whom? Do present the rebuttal. Globes is not linked to a Turkish journalist and I have been reading it for years.

We talked about the same topic back in page 140. I don’t think there’s much to add to everyone’s points about it for now. You can add increased slat armor, jammers and more capable APS. It’s still the same MBT concept. Because an MBT is already a compromise on firepower, armor and speed. Move...

No press conference btw Turkiye + Ethiopia's Foreign Ministers yesterday - nor was there lengthy statement released after meeting btw Turkish President + Ethiopian PM's envoy Suggests no great desire to put out public message, or that there are some sensitivities at play. Meeting is interesting...

Quoting from April for my traditional T625 updates. We’re nearing end of Q2 of 2024 and still no deliveries for T625. Hoping for Q3.

“ Good news for the construction industry: Turkey has approved resuming supplies to Israel While in Israel the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and the Ministry of Economy are working feverishly in recent days to end Israel's dependence on imports from Turkey even in the long term, the Turkish...

Indeed. To add, not like we’re not talking with LNA. From last month: “The Director General of the Libya Development and Reconstruction Fund, appointed by the House of Representatives, Belgassim [son of Haftar], signed contracts with Turkish companies to implement several projects in Benghazi”...

Took 2 years to finalize after first agreement. And still needs to be approved by parliaments. Still good news.

That’s not how IP works, it’s not a trademark or a patent.

It’s Ludovico Einaudi’s Experience. I first heard it on Watchtower of Turkey about a decade ago. Meme is fine and all but the song is very fitting.

I can see infantry commandos slowly clearing out every mountain range and tunnel near the border and southward, KDP peshmerga and Iraqi army border guards keeping the lowlands and stop PKK taking it back next year. But please someone explain to me how Hashd plays out into this and how can it...

Surprising to me that no spotter footage came out yet.

Buddy tanker missions are a thing and it is what the US Navy is preparing the new MQ-25 for. Beforehand, almost 1/3 of a carrier’s F-18s were set aside for these missions, stealing away from possible combat sorties. Problem with the idea of using existing or modified drone tankers to refuel...

It needs to be about 3 times the size to be able to carry the boom necessary to refuel Kaan. Americans spent 10 years to perfect KC-46’s remote controlled boom where the boom operator still sits inside the aircraft. Should be fun for the folks at TAI to master that challenge.

Left it in season 2 i think. Need to rewatch all in one go sometime.

Sad, Hyundai’s K808 beat both Arma and Pars and was chosen as the winner. 30 vehicles in the first batch for 60 million.

Kaan P1 will fly in 2025. “Following the maiden flight, progress on the P1 prototype is once again advancing with a sense of unity and sol-idarity, fueling our growing excitement. All teams are currently focused on the new prototype, scheduled to make its maiden flight in 2025 and to be...

Not from Libya. See this newspiece with the same photo from 2019. https://www.takvim.com.tr/guncel/2019/06/01/pence-harektinda-6nci-gun-sinira-bora-sevkiyati Efforts in OSINT is laudable but make sure to reverse image search as well.
