I don't think there are plans for a manned moon landing at the moment. If Orion and Starship works and there is a semi permanant moon base where all nations come together a la Jamestown Base sure. Without it, a manned moon mission with our own rocket and second stage is a huge waste of...

It's normal for VLS models to be showing only the protruding part and not the underside. I had thought maybe it could be the sensor mast for Milden or something before taking a closer look.

Is that a MIDLAS model at the back?

Tuva Atasever will do another trip to Karman line with Virgin Galactic in a few months. That is much more touristy and I think is a bad use of resources. I do not think Turkey joining ESA will happen, and I doubt Turkey is interested in joining ESA astronaut program any longer. Not when you can...

And up they went! After nose cone deployment, we wait.

T- 20:00:00. Final stretch now, no mention of a scrub for now.

Sad that it had to come to this.

In that case if the tweet I quoted is correct, Sonitus is both leading its own project and is also a subcontractor for Altınay.

It gets even more interesting. "STM signed a supply contract with Altınay for ASIST's indigenous version. Project started under the main contractorship of Altinay. The news about subcontractors such as Sonitus (which developed and delivered the rail unit) caused confusion. Ultimately, acceptance...

Kemalreis was probably damaged, patched up while on sea and continued to serve a week later, showcasing our combat readiness. Kemalreis is a ship, not a 70 year old man with prostate cancer. Releasing photos of him on hospital bed wouldn't do them any good, and is a horrible practice of ethics...

Not necessarily, Ship and the VLS probably have different testing schedules. But 14 months have passed since the first MIDLAS test and it is yet to be test fired on a ship, so we can assume Istanbul won't be a fully combat ready ship for a long while.

US won't show a selfie of a cancer patient on bed to quell Russian rumours. If they do, they are already losing the info war.

I thought it would be a small batch, 200?! Way to start the year for Otokar. "According to Africa Intelligence, FAR has recently ordered 200 Cobra 2 armored vehicles, manufactured by the Turkish defense company Otokar. Notably, around 20 of these vehicles will be allocated to Moroccan...

I think we can assume the project in question will be employed on the new class MCMVs. As this is just r&D for now, i think we can also say new class MCMV is at least few years ahead.

That's why i didn't want to write anything, to not jinx it...

Eh, should have thought about that before supplying Armenia with MLRS and SAMs. Compared to those, TB2 at this range from India is only a coast guard bird.

Why do I have a feeling that Desert Sting-16 is just a MAM with a French laser seeker?
