A really smooth take off, job really well done.

There are totally lost cause so called Turks all right but there are also half lost ones who think yeah Turks can perhaps make planes but it will take a lot longer than what is being promised. And our leadership keep proving them wrong.

F35 is better suited for American ships, Turkish ships can only deploy Turkish weapons. I don't think Türkiye will end up with another lame ass Aircraft Carrier wanna be. My guess is a magnetic catapult will be made in time for deployment. Just look at how we ended up with Kaan which is racing...

"İstikbal göklerdedir" is a very outdated claim, Humanity has already been in the air and space for ages. Come up with something better, like "Kaan göklerde" for the patch.

There is a difference between a possible coup attempt and an actual coup happening. Everybody knew that a coup attempt may happen but who would you blame for it before it happened.

No idea about what Koreans are doing but seems like so for France and the UK are looking to get a half power EMALS too, named something else to make the ship UCAV and small plane launch capable. Also nowadays both launch and recovery are magnetically operated, so similar components will be used...

We only rank #8 in military power so it is risky to put all eggs in one basket.

Another consideration meanwhile is if an AC deck can be used to recover space launch vehicles' first stage like they do with Space X first stages. It can be a side job for an AC if they can make it happen. Actually even launching a space rocket with the help of an LHD, an AC or an LST would be a...

As far as I understand it if there is no catapult to assist take off you need to keep the ship speeding in the water to help give planes taking off additional air speed. You can do this if you have nuclear propulsion but when you don't have it you will be consuming fuel to do it. So it is a must...

A 60k ton, 285m long ship is a full size hip. Bigger ships are not big because they have to be but because of more storage capacity. An EMALS is only 300ft long and can launch a plane of 100.000lb. A half power EMALS is all we need as larger planes are neither more effective nor more economical...

I don't think so, where will European tourists go if Türkiye and Greece are out of the picture. Likewise how will the US protect American assets against Türkiye?

Not yet, nukes are after we find the big oil and gas.

Call Cimer, maybe they know something and want to tell you.

People never pay the money until Erdoğan orders it. People never want to pay money.

Atatürk associated himself with peace, so it is not suitable to involve his name with weapons. While on the other hand Erdoğan is all about belligerence and you probably already know but I still see the need to remind you that Erdoğan is the president who is ordering this ship and most likely...

TCG Zafer would be the most appropriate name for the new carrier ship.

Countries' vision of the future maybe different from how it looks, nobody could guess that there would be talk of a world war 3 just a few years ago.

No, from Gibraltar to Indonesia. As long as they are affordable we can have several, particularly because they are fossil fueled and have limited range. They are more like mobile bases.

British Carriers are under-performing ships that no one will want. That is evident from the fact that they intend to modify them heavily particularly making them UAV friendly. We need a ship that is 285 meter long weighing 60k tons and that can operate smaller planes like the UCAVs we are...

We can make them cheaper. US makes equipment to be costly so that other nations can not catch up. But we made UAVs cheaper we can make ACs cheaper too. Our field of interest spans from the west of Africa to the east of Indian Ocean and we can use conventional propulsion to cover this span.
