He is trying to push all the buttons to win elections. He desperately needs some success story. If he sends some of the temporary asylum seekers back to Syria even temporarily and deals a heavy blow to YPG this might improve his chances.

Today something important happened in North Iraq. Turkish forces cut the connection of Zap/Metina mountain camps of PKK as the Claw-Lock operation progresses. This is the lock phase of the operation. Now terrorists are surrounded inside those camps.

Yeah, it is a modification of Centurion 2.0 one of the reasons why it is dirt cheap. The engine is bought as a COTS product and only modified here.

IMHO the operation will happen. Monday Erdo and Putin will talk and Erdo will make clear that we are coming in hot whether Russia likes it or not.

I don't know what his source is but he is wrong. The problem with TEI engines is their cost. TAI still uses PD-155 rather than PD-170, especially for the light male category UAVs where the selling point of PD-170 aka high altitude performance is not that important. Turkish UAVs operate around...

1) %15 structural weight is completely normal for the missiles. There are missiles with a 0.90 mass propellant fraction. Besides why only use the existing 470kg warhead? We can at least cut that in half with an improved warhead design(we are producing all kinds of explosives now thermobaric...

It seems like the opening moves will continue for a while. IMHO there won't be a big move before the operation in Northern Iraq nears completion.

They still have fighters in Hmeimim Airbase. Russian soldiers withdrew from most of the places. They still control Latakia, Tartus, Hmeimim. Choppers and fighters patrol the airspace from time to time.

Let's calculate it then using the rocket equation and see who's right. Δv=ve*ln(m0/mt) ve=Isp*g0 Δv= Isp*g0*ln(m0/mt) Δv= Difference in velocity. ve= Effective exhaust velocity Isp=Specific Impulse in seconds g0=gravity m0= Initial mass (launch weight) mt= Final Mass (weight without fuel)...

PKK/YPG Ilhan Amed "we held talks with Russia and the US no one gave us security guarantees". Nuri Mahmud from YPG "this time it won't be like Ras Al Ain and Tal Abyad. We will make very different things".

Lora can carry a 400kg warhead to a distance of 430km. Bora can carry a 470kg warhead to 360km. They have similar diameters Lora is substantially lighter. A 2500kg Lora can carry the same 400kg warhead to 1000km because nearly all of that extra weight will be fuel. Not only does this mean more...

There is already ongoing action. Troop deployments artillery shelling and recon flights are happening right now. The communications tower is destroyed in Abu Rasin. Turkish artillery struck the PKK headquarters in Abu Rasin. Turkish artillery destroyed the comm towers in the Senare village of...

It is reported that the operation will start in 24 to 48 hours. Russian choppers are conducting patrol flights near the Turkish operation areas. A sizeable TAF convoy is heading south in the east Euphrates theater. I won't disclose the exact location.

No, it won't be. Roketsan is trying to roughly double the range(more like increasing it by %90) That missile will probably carry double the warhead of Sungur and will weigh around 50kg.(I estimate Sungur weighs around 20kg)

True UAV production rate is more than the CATS production rate. Aselsan is increasing CATS production to 12 per month(even though it says 10 in your link) from 6 but this is still not enough. 6 per month is 72 per year 12 per month is 144 per year this is enough for Turkish needs but it still...

Syrians are not refugees they are temporary asylum seekers hence UN charter doesn't apply to them.

PrsM exceeded 500km in the most recent tests. It actually traveled more than 500km but the exact range is undisclosed. https://adbr.com.au/precision-strike-missile-test-exceeds-500km/ https://aviationweek.com/shows-events/ausa-2020/prsm-completes-max-range-flight-test-fifth-overall...

Sungur-ER 15km range @8km altitude with RF guidance option. It will be an enlarged Sungur.
