Can we see a test fire of the Çakır family first to see the rate of development, please and thank you.

Typical. There will come a day when these groups will be named as criminal organizations and its members will be hunted by the police. Assassinating past members after "leaving the cause" is something the mafia and the terrorists do. Bahçeli played on the "days of the armed conflict is over, we...

My day was made. Thank you, finally. Imagining an A330 or a 767(a type TK is not experienced in but Turkish technic does maintain foreign customers), you can load engines, radars, any EO and avionics you can think of. Something smaller, and you might have issues with stability and lack of space...

I get what you're saying, but why does it need to be a direct new tech? Being a good systems developer, a good concept developer and having the affinity to bring many different COTS parts into a meaningful product is a trait on its own, something Baykar does excel at. As for the CONOPS of...

That's one ugly chonky boy. LOVE IT

Remove the orange test bits and it's such a clean design.

Yeah, nah. Tired of this. Hamaset is the thing I hate the most in this whole world. These are the same people that were used to be lauded day and night on how they were great, how we could work with them, what they could offer to Turkey. They used to be called the "Turkish couple in America"...

don't give me hope...

Agreed on the second paragraph. And I don't think this brainstorm includes installing a launchpad or a rocket test center in the middle of the city. But like a campus with office space and an R&D center with a huge green area where some of it would be open to the public with an aviation museum...

Thanks France, for the first time ever :)

Clash Report started its life releasing crisp 1080p Syria drone footage after the Balyun airstrike. Its admins are for sure on government payroll. You know who else is a CIA and US government contractor? General Electric and BAE Systems. 2 of the biggest defence companies in the world and they...

uhmm “A Turkish aircraft (type C-130) was shot at by Rapid Support Forces as it was preparing to land at Wadi Seidna airbase near Khartoum. One crew member was injured and the plane is being repaired."

The one closest to the camera is the test article for the Şahin anti drone system as per the drone killmarks that are visible. We had seen photos of it last year I think. Wonder if these are getting ready for delivery or just prototypes.

This flight was likely not the first sortie, but Turkish footprint in Sudan is much larger compared to others with all those construction jobs. Not much of the evacuation plan was made public. unlike rest of the world, it's not a big topic in Turkey currently. Take from that what you will.

Up to 5000 Turks live in Sudan. Would need a lot more than a few A400s to get them out and multiple sorties.

Because that's a made up meaning for the slogan and the hand sign. It was a direct dog whistle for the Ikhwan in Egypt and adopted the killed girl's name and the Rabia square as it's main symbol. Now Mursi is dead, Rabia is dead, Ikhwan is at its least powerful time ever in its history, they're...

These two would be the most likely reasons. My bet is on the name. Still think it will be Anatolian Eagle.

Swap out the jet engine for a propeller and you have yourself a great ScanEagle equivalent. Love this.

Turkey still using Adana Treaty as the backbone of its argument is what falters the discussion. Adana Treaty is no longer realistically valid while Turkish soldiers are in Syria. Assad sees this, we decide not to. I don't see an easy end to this whole ordeal no matter who wins next month. KK is...

Just gonna chime in here. Being the sword of Islam for about 1000 years, Turks had an oversized effect on the religion and vice versa. No one can deny that, it's nature and tradition at this point. It is natural to say the words as they are a part of our language. You say alasmarladık when...
