Yes TEI and GE collab is discussed in quite some detail in the propulsion thread at various places. Folks should really search and read things in there. The capital machinery + process control for example that Turkiye has in the eskisehir facility is a big leg up to how completely non-NATO...

If you are satisfied with Russian level MTBO and reliability in the end, it just often more economical to import from Russia for vast majority of countries (that have technical experience but various geopolitical and strategic priorities and inheritances). Replicating that base level with say...

For comparison, India FGFA (Su-57 supposed derivative) sunk in expense was at least about 250 million USD till India called it quits over workshare and further commitment/costs/ToT etc that were coming up. i.e the whole thing ended being exploratory and somewhat nominal. Similar to Turkey with...

Honestly I didn't even know what the Turkish "stereotypes" were till the internet exploded into the reddit/twitter era of it now...and everything just becomes uni-dimensional in its own way for that because people are looking for simple hot takes to have some fun and smack talk online and so on...

Its some guy with wild theories that is no longer posting here....no need to discuss much further. Indonesia will make its decisions as it sees fit regarding what it needs sooner vs later, lets see how it all shapes up, both are important in the end. Like madokafc says, the decisions are...

Actually not for me. I knew a number of competent Turks in first school (in Singapore) and then engineering at university and then work early on. One Turk (professor) I owe much to, one of arguably the top 10 published research folks in thermodynamics here in Canada, explained at quite some...

Probably busy finding a way to blame India for paying the Korean to say this....to go along with the larger "India is taking over the IMF!!" conspiracy theory he doubled down on and other weird stuff that gathers muster in the low IQ forum there whenever I take a peek. Manner of his departure...

Maybe we should look at some cold hard numbers for each country you mention rather than simply assert "industrial base" and "human capital potential" in any more personally imputed direction. Things like international patent grants per year and intellectual property receipt (and scale this for...

India-Turkiye trade was 5 billion USD total just 5 years ago and has now exceeded 10 billion USD in 2021. It will likely continue this pace of addition this decade and reach 15 - 20 billion USD by 2025 - 2030. There will likewise be more business and commercial development between the two...

https://www.nasaspaceflight.com/2022/11/isro-pslv-oceansat-3/ India launched a new ocean monitoring satellite on Saturday morning, using its PSLV rocket to deliver the EOS-06 spacecraft into a low Earth orbit. The mission, PSLV C54, lifted off from the Satish Dhawan Space Centre at 11:56 local...

Yah Bharat Rakshak predates this twitter era "new forum" stuff that I mentioned.....so it has more seasoned and matured brigade of Indian defence watchers/analysts there. It is worthier to follow for news and analysis for sure. Here I reference some of BR discussion regarding engine development...

He is just summarising what the dailysabah media articles were saying about it...and which this thread goes into more detail about here too about the recent picture releases and project updates. i.e The overall design choices, current projected time line of development (significant dates of...

I posted reply here originally, but I dont want to stray off topic. Can continue convo on this here: https://defencehub.live/threads/indian-coffee-house-news-politics-chit-chat-debate.8382/page-75#post-229614

It is actually very shockingly simple to explain. Talent+aptitude+competence vis a vis "bureaucracy" are nearly entirely disjointed sets in India for most things as you go up the ladder of organisation and control. It gets especially worse in defence sector especially given this is old boys club...

+1 . Fun to read some of the replies on this thread though lol.
