    TR Missile & Smart Munition Programs

    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...

    Türkiye- UK Defence Cooperation News and Updates

    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...

    TR Air-Force TF-X KAAN Fighter Jet

    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...

    Türkiye- UK Defence Cooperation News and Updates

    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...

    When we have our own TS1400 engines on them, we will see the real export results of this helicopter. There are many nations that can not buy western class helicopters. With indigenous engines we can open up those markets.

    As a naval helicopter for multi purpose use, Gokbey can be good to use on TCG Anadolu and other ships like Bayraktar Class LSTs plus any other non combatant sea platform. Gokbey, if navalised, can also make a very good search and rescue helicopter. It can do a lot of Seahawk duties more...

    SU35S, quoted by some as best 4++ generation fighter around; SU57, deemed as Russia’s response to F22 stealth planes. With their overwhelming numbers and their superiority on paper, there was so much expectation. But they have failed to deliver; In fact they have done very little in Ukraine...
