2 years for building 1.5 years for subsystem installation another 1.5 years for testing. We are building an 8500-tonne state-of-the-art AAW destroyer, not a 500-tonne FAC.

Turkish anti-air warfare destroyer project TF-2000 tender phase is starting soon. The first TF-2000 will enter the inventory of the Turkish Navy in 2027. The first steel cut for the destroyer might happen in 2022. It will take a 5 year period from the first steel cut to the full commission of...

We should definitely get Malaysia on board if we can.

Gara field commander of PKK is killed with an armed UAV of MIT in Kirkuk.

I have never claimed that I know. What I claimed is a good portion of the tank will be produced(not assembled) by BMC and I proved it. Now you tell me how many parts ELVO is producing? What is the contribution of ELVO? They are not even responsible for the quality of the end product and system...

We are making great progress on this front. I'm happy to see real progress rather than vague concepts.

No problems= We are not kicked out of the project. Delays are the problem of Germans, not us.

I can't name 6k parts. https://www.aa.com.tr/tr/turkiye/bmc-yonetim-kurulu-baskani-sancak-kirpiyi-butun-ordular-istiyor-onlari-siraya-koyduk/1419543

ELVO assembles Leo2. You buy something from IKEA come home and assemble it. BMC will produce Altay. This is inherently different from assembling. Most of the subsystems will come from other providers but there are also things BMC will produce.

We are on our way to a similar capability with TRG-230, TRG-122, TRLG-230, and TRLG-122 missiles. TRG missiles(GPS/INS) will be integrated into the UAVs and fighters in the first phase, TRLG (added laser guidance) will be integrated into the UAVs and fighters in the second phase of the project.

Leo2A4 upgrade project(LeoTay) isn't progressing because BMC has no capability to produce the Altay turret. BMC is working hard on gaining that capability.

With 2x 225HP PD-222 engines i think this bird can lift 1000kg payload.

The total defense budget of Türkiye is roughly around 25 billion $ when you add defense industry support fund(SSDF) and various R&D funds.

This is simply not true. The powerpack is not the only problem. BMC has no tank and tracked vehicle production or tracked vehicle upgrade capability in general. There are a dozen MTU powerpacks available but BMC can't produce the tank. Leopard modernization offer was a joke BMC welded Altay...

The project is still at the hands of BMC. If nothing happens in a week or two maybe in a month expect the project to stay at BMC.

Roketsan is working on reusable liquid-fueled booster rockets for space applications.

I'm %100 sure that the project started in 2008 and Roketsan became a part of the project in 2013.

It will guarantee that the integration of the Korean powerpack can be completed without further delays. There is no guarantee that BMC can successfully integrate the Korean powerpack and complete all tests on Altay with success to fully qualify the product. If the Korean powerpack integration...

AL-9500F is probably designed and shelved waiting for foreign financing because Ukraine has no money to finance that program.

When a +18 tape spreads on social media the first question to be asked is who released that tape, who benefits from it, and for what purpose it is released?
