USIDFC is a state "company", but it acts more of a federal government agency. They finance projects in mid and low income countries. They currently have 9 active projects in Turkey, for a total of 1.7bn. God bless the transparent government institutions...

Montrose and Monmouth would be two of the T23s Turkey would get if T23 deal worked out. Still good chance they will find their way here. Get ready for a week of news segments if a Turkish scrapper buys the hulls.

I hadn't even noticed, you're right! This looks to be the turret of the VN20 heavy tracked IFV. It can also carry a single ATGM on its side. This is a 4 billion dollar deal so it being won is s success in itself but still, after using western turrets for years and even Russian ones, Turkish...

Any links, public info are welcome. - Wonder what happened to the Estonian army 4x4 tender in which all finalists were Turkish. Winner was to be announced in Q2, 4 months late. Couldn't find any info.

Huge tender if Otokar or Nurol can capture it. 1059 vehicles for Romania. One third will be direct built, rest will be built in Romania. ToT included. 1 Billion$ tender. Sherpa Light looks to be current favorite. https://defapt.ro/un-miliard-de-euro-pentru-blindate/

That is very interesting. Sending an Akıncı all that way under its own power would probably take a day. And it squawks 7600 on fr24. https://www.flightradar24.com/FLIGHTUK/31fe77b1 Spoof maybe?

Of course. And this Indian led, American sponsored corridor is designed to cut China as a hub in the future and break the BRI.

Portuguese could opt to use the land route as usual, but they decided to go around Africa instead, which changed the world. This is a macro matter. One gotta add, biggest loser of this corridor is Egypt as it completely bypasses Suez cannal. Which is good for us as it would be easier to pull...

During times of crises, there's no time for politics. Ukrainian and Russian helpers worked almost next to each other in the relief efforts in Turkey. If Turkey can accept help from Greece and Armenia, Morocco can accept help from Algeria. This is life and death. Question, why is the Moroccan...

Ecuadorian President joined the ceremony for the induction of the new vehicles in to the service. Also mentions "15 Ural type vehicles" will be delivered by October. Doubt he'd namedrop Russian Urals on a tweet so must be Otokar Urals for security forces. If they go into army service, would be...

It was apparent that there were some foul play with that so called report from a month or two ago. Pity. Always the same with Paramount, can never do it the right way. Per this 100mm gun thing, maybe they'll opt for a Chinese copy of the Russian turret as they don't want to get the BMP-3 turret...

what did he do this time...

This is not just Erdogan going in headlong as we grown accustomed. He met with MBZ a day before he said this. Iraqi "development corridor" might be one of the pawns between UAE and Saudi's influence checkers game. For a calmer ME without Iran flailing around with ballistic missiles, this might...

Literally no one in the world will get triggered by a person reciting their last prayer before dying.

Looks like Hürjet finally got its HUD as well.

Unless a T725 is coming, it'll either be more Seahawks or T625. Wildcat, which is at a similar weight has a fixed aesa radar, can carry torpedos, sonobuoys, 20 Martlet LMMs etc. It's also powered by the same engine we have on T129, which we want our own engine for T625 to match. Unless they are...

Karaok however was not delivered to TSK in 2022.

I wasn't going to talk more about this but had to share it :D Post she shared on instagram of Atatürk and Sabiha Gökçen is the photo of Gökçen kissing the hand of her father before she was deployed to Tunceli to help suppress the revolt in 1937. Now, i don't know if she knows the significance...

I think this might be in relation to not Dez but north. Literally nothing to go from, but it's surprisingly silent from big parties to the war except for US. Or the US is going for the border.
