Turkish Airforce needs at least 90 to replace the jet trainers. If another 90 are produced for CAS duties, we are looking at good part of 200 planes. If this is doubled with exports 400 units are easy to achieve. For this amount of planes you need 450+ engines. If not produced in house : 1...

It was I who wrote about Sinn Fein in Ireland and Other parties in Spain. I am afraid you are a bit misinformed. Sinn Fein dates back to 1902. They were outlawed in UK until 1974. But became a legal entity after that. Terrorist group IRA, although agreed to discuss disarming in 1998, it was in...

https://www.tusas.com/en/products/new-projects/original-development/hurjet Hurjet’s original wing area was 24m2. Tusas’s new page gives wing area of Hurjet as 35m2. This will give Hurjet a lot more lift. Hence short take off and landing capability with more payload. It would also give better...

I know. I was just being extra informative. Second line includes that. Better still just read @Khagan1923 ’s post #2452. He has said everything I would‘ve liked to have said.

Great news! But I wish they would give the altitudes at which these records were broken with payload weight too. Then it would mean more. Nevertheless, it is an achievement to be proud of.

If you mean “head up display” HUD, yes. if you mean HUD in helmet visor, I hope so! F 35s have this capability. TFX will also have it. Hurjet is a trainer built to train pilots for F35 and MMU/TFX. So it is logical to expect it.

They need to produce a prototype of CAS/Light Attack version along with the trainer if they are thinking about winning the Malaysian bid. Timelines given originally were before the pandemic and when the embargoes became more frequent on subsystems. Hence the delay. They must be working to a...

Just look at Northern Ireland. Sinn Fein is the legalised face of IRA , the terrorist organisation represented in UK parliament. ETA in Spain was represented by Batasuna, EHAK and Sortu . Closing them did not solve the problem though. These are countries that are far ahead of Turkey in terms of...

When a US Global Hawk worth 130 million dollars was downed by Iranian AD systems in 2019, Trump decided to bomb certain Iranian positions as a retaliatory action. But changed his mind the last minute - according to what he says - when he learnt that it would mean killing 150+ Iranians. What I...

In stead of calling each other names, why not discuss the actual topic? Can somebody answer , why Trump “really” changed his mind not to bomb Iran after US drone was downed?

https://www.savunmasanayiidergilik.com/tr/HaberDergilik/TCG-Ufuk-14-Ocak-ta-torenle-hizmete-girecek We love ceremonies as a nation!! TCG Ufuk will be part of Turkish Navy officially on 14th January with a ceremony of acceptance.

Different angles of approach! That is what we are doing. If we can persuade them, great. They haven’t got much to lose really, apart from time. It is a win-win situation for them. They will end up with a modern light attack jet fighter at a good price if it comes out as we planned, on top of...

Actually it does sound crazy and absurd. I wouldn’t buy a house from a builder who has never built a complete house before. At this day and age I wouldn’t even buy a motor car if I haven’t seen it or test driven it even if it is from a well known brand. But what we are saying to the Malaysians...

Going back to Turkish bid on Malaysian light attack aircraft; the main 2 advantages of choosing Hurjet would be, cost and TOT. Malaysia will be involved in part producing an aircraft. That is what they want in the first place. I can’t see any other bidders prepared to share what Turkey is...

Pakistani Ship Babur, is actually longer than our Milgems. It is over 108 metres in length. Milgem is 99.5 metres. As it is empty and still needs equipment to be fitted it is normal to stand up higher.

https://www.savunmasanayist.com/hurjetin-malezya-yolculugunda-son-durum-ne/ Without even having a plane in hand and without even flown the plane, we are bidding to produce and sell a plane to Malaysia. That sounds absurd and crazy. But these 18 planes that we are bidding for, will allow us to...

Production of all prototypes have physically started. Great news.!

https://www.savunmasanayiidergilik.com/tr/HaberDergilik/ASELSAN-in-Sarp-silah-sistemi-Atom-atacak They have attached a 40mm cannon to Sarp-Dual to be able to fire 40mm Atom ammunition. This makes Sarp Dual a very capable anti air gun. It only has 96 rounds of 40mm Atom on board but it will make...

In a democratic country where nearly 10% of your electorate is voting for a party that has connections to a terror group, the only thing you can do is : Keep your friends close and your enemies closer!

Let us not derail the conversation to Israeli army capabilities. This thread is for discussion on which one of them is more useful for Turkey ; f35 or S400 ? Israeli army has proven itself in 3 major wars in all 3 areas in the past against local adversaries. If it need to be discussed further...
