Size difference between Siper Block 2 and Hisar-RF (basically Siper Block 1 when booster attached) is something.

This is pretty big for a single signature. 350 million worth of PGM kits. Should be at least ten thousand. "Agreements regarding the Guidance Kits procurement to meet the needs of the Turkish Armed Forces have been signed between ASELSAN and Presidency of The Republic of Türkiye Secretariat of...

I see all the fluff, but not much real stuff. There won't be hydrogen cell tanks, KF51 is a showpiece etc. Still the same thing. No scientific or tactical breakthrough happened to change the triangle in the last 6 months. Even our M60T1s are still one of the most technologically advanced...

40 Vipers and 40 EF2000s means 60 aircraft increase after F-4s are retired. That's nearly 25% increase in combat aircraft. Good enough for a stopgap.

Doubt it, that wouldn't have such an effect. Might be down to other priorities, to cut costs down to spend it elsewhere, like Eurofighters and Özgür-2.

As it was mentioned over the summer, current consensus seems to be lowered number of mod kits, likely to only cover 29 Block 50+s instead of 79.

Don't know the source for this infographic but by all means integrating Bozdoğan is much more easier than the radar guided Gökdoğan, must be an incomplete list. And Özgür-2 will include the new Tulgar helmet per previous statements.

African states are also learning that it's not TB2 that's special, but the doctrine it's used as a part of, with highly advanced C2I components and the highly trained light infantry units, supported by artillery, helicopters and most importantly political capital. Just striking targets with TB2s...

I believe an Özgür-like program by TAI and Aselsan to modernize Indonesia's F-16 fleet? That would be very interesting, not sure if US would allow it tho. Or they want to join F-16V family with mod kits/hulls made in Turkey?

“They launched from about 40 kilometers from the front, flew 100 kilometers past the front line of troops and then found these SA-11 surface-to-air missiles [on] 11 Buks, targeted them, called in HIMARS airburst rounds,” said Brandon Tseng, president and co-founder of Shield AI, the San...

"A meeting was held today in Azaz between the SMO Jabhat Fateh al-Sham and the Joint Forces. During the comprehensive meeting, disputes were resolved. Presentations were made for possible operations." "Local opposition sources in Syria: Next month, there will be changes in the control map...

Maybe, or something like the S-100. But by their nature rotorcraft have lower endurance.

Something's cooking.

Like any other, that is a venue that needs to be explored. Americans are unhappy with it. "...according to the service’s fiscal year 2025 budget request, which earmarks no funding for the 36 MQ-8Cs the service has acquired. “Operational employment of the MQ-8C will end in Q4 FY2024 and sundown...

While Indonesian and Malaysian Air Forces are small, they've historically used larger fighter aircraft, like the F-18s, or Su-30s. With the economies of both countries growing ever larger at nearly exponential rates, and with SEA starting to get hot, it's only plausible to expect them to order...

From the same exercise. - To add, "Anadolu Task Group" seems mostly stood unchanged since its latest activation back in May, again for Neptune Strike 2024.1 1 Ada Class, 1 frigate(G or Meko), 3 army Cougars, 2 AH-1Ws, 1-2 Seahawks and a contingent of marines. And to add again, we don't...

Putting the MWR radar there requires a complete modification of the rotor assembly, would basically create a new helicopter. Housing for the Longbow passes through the shaft.

Bad title, pretty okay video.

5kms from the border. Well that's it then, a year's worth of operations...

I think they're still betting on T629 to come online. Phase 1 T129Bs are good enough for the role and we have plenty for COIN. I think they fall on the middle ground in the wall of importance. And as TAI have customers for the platform, there's no urgency there as well. I think they'll...
