Says who? You? https://www.unhcr.org/uk/syria-emergency.html UN’s own site clearly states that hey are “refugees”! https://www1.undp.org/content/dam/undp/library/corporate/fast-facts/english/FFSyriaJune72013.pdf

We must not forget that Turkey has signed the UN charter regarding the handling of refugees. As the name clearly suggests these are people who were seeking “refuge” in Turkey as their lives were endangered. There are clear guidelines as to how you can handle them and how you can send them back...

My understanding with respect to Sungur was such that, due to the successes obtained in the tests, the very short range AD work to be given to the Hisar A, has been transferred to Sungur based systems. If I am not wrong, there is still more work being carried out on the development of Sungur to...

Akkuyu is being built by Russians, Financed by Russians, Owned by Russians. Uranium fuel to be supplied by Russians. All depleted Uranium is to be taken back by Russians. TETAS of Turkey guarantees to purchase at least 70% of energy produced at 12.35 cents per KWhr. How is that going to help...

PrsM is a work in progress. It is programmed to go as long as 1770km at hypersonic speeds. Current missile tested managed 400km distance. https://www.defensenews.com/land/2021/05/12/armys-precision-strike-missile-breaks-range-record/ This is a missile that was developed from ATACMS 610mm...

https://www.savunmasanayist.com/som-j-ve-som-b1-fuzelerinden-tam-isabet/ SOM B1 and SOM-J missiles have been successfully fired this week. Finally SOM-J will be ready to be integrated on to various platforms. At the moment it is the only Air to Ship cruise missile we have. It’s big brother...

https://www.19fortyfive.com/2022/05/the-best-f-16-fighter-on-the-planet-isnt-in-the-u-s-air-force/ Interesting article about the UAE F16V60 planes. The engines of these planes are overhauled and maintained by TEI. They develop 32500lbf thrust. With the Apg80 radar and IRST system it has, this...

I guess he meant that the new Bora2 was so much more capable than old one that if we knew about it we would be so impressed with it’s performance that we would forget about the importance of elections etc. but talk about Bora2 instead. At least that is what I make of it...

Again non of what you waffle about has any relevance to Bora1 missile achieving 1000km range. But let us look at these SRBMs from a different angle; Yildirim missile is a 2500kg 6.1m long missile with a range of 150km. In fact one can see how Bora and other missiles were developed from it. By...

Again you are turning the conversation in to a one sided argument that has nothing to do with the original post on which my post was written. You need to understand English better! By changing different parameters of a missile, one after the other you change the range incrementally. Each small...

1. We are not discussing here TRG-300 2. TRG-300 always had a range of 120km when first introduced. They decreased it to 90km by nearly doubling the explosive weight. https://www.roketsan.com.tr/en/products/trg-300-guided-missile 3. I have already mentioned Block 2 Bora in my above article. By...

Again you are jumping in without actually reading what is written. We are not talking about achieving incremental increases of range. @I_Love_F16 is talking about Bora having 1000 km range. We all know by lowering explosive weight, lowering missile weight by using composite materials or...

Bora as we know it, can not go more than 480km. It is a “Quasi Ballistic” short range (300-360km range) tactical missile. It is a 2500kg, 7.8m long, 610mm diameter missile with a solid fuel rocket engine with a 470kg explosive head. It was developed from Chinese B611 class missiles. This in turn...

Tulomsas, Tudemsas, Tuvasas All three giant companies gathered under one umbrella of Turasas. The last two, a wagon builder and a rail car builder merged with Tulomsas who is a locomotive builder that can build marine Diesel engines as well. Tulomsas and GE transportation had combined their...

There is nothing here about the origin of guns and who the suppliers of these weapons were. Please don’t waste time with unsubstantiated news. Further info on this if not supported by valid proof will be deleted.

Source? Please support such accusations about a country with source material. Where is the proof that these were supplied by Turkey? One can not even see what make they are. Even if they are of Turkish origin, you need to provide proof that it was the Turkish government that supplied these...

Please read Türkiye- UK Defence Cooperation News and Updates thread. It is also about the contents of your post. NB pls do not forget to communicate in English! (Even for what you are asking)

As per @TheInsider ’s comment, UK is not expecting Tempest to be ready before 2035. Most likely it will be operational post 2040, taking in to account their past performance with the Typhoon project. Hence it will be well after we have completed the production of the essential quantity of TFX in...

I totally agree with you. Nothing beats indigenously produced weapons in terms of their impact in the battlefield. There are no problems with sourcing them in bulk and in any quantity you want. As they are totally made by your technicians; As well as being able to freely upgrade them to your and...

I have a feeling Tempest will be the cementing factor of Turkish UK and Swedish relations. I am an optimist at times. But then again it can all go pear shaped and Sweden may pull out of the deal. Logically, with UK leading, Sweden and Japan technically helping together with their financial...
