It seems Baykar has big ambitions in Italy. BAYKAR CTO Selcuk Bayraktar: With the sale of Piaggio Aerospace to Baykar, our -manned- aerial vehicle activities in Europe will begin. *** Manned and unmanned aircraft of various classes, both civilian and military, in parallel with a business plan...

Yes, there are certainly very compelling dynamics at play and the political structure in France is very populist, they can continue to exclude the Turks by risking to be paralyzed against overt moves by the US, rather than to bring the 'some' lobbies into a certain framework. Both situations are...

According to a report prepared by 5 senators from the French Foreign Affairs and Defense Committee who visited Turkiye, TR wants to give support the 6th generation fighter jet program “FCAS” The US moves that point to isolationism and its desire to re-evaluate Canada and Greenland issues in...

Although I have not been able to verify the source, It is speculated that until the reorganization of the Syrian air force is completed, the Turkish air force will temporarily deploy 2 squadron size air force to protect and support of Syrian airspace. If this news is true, the bases will...

Another excellent post. Thanks Yasar_TR üstad. *** IMHO, my shortest categorization mentality is that submarines are an offensive element, while surface platforms are basically for area dominance. Submarines can paralyze a navy's logistical links or maritime trade, and in some specific cases...

While developing our own ramjet-propelled anti-aircraft missile, the presence of the Meteor missile, which is a reference in this field, in the inventory of the Air Force will definitely be a plus factor. It is not only the balancing of the Greek air threat, but also the training activities of...

And this terrorist will receive an MP pension until he dies. Currently, excluding other social benefits and social security expenses granted to parliamentary pensioners, the minimum is 111,000 TL. If he has a pension from another institution, this figure may be over 200,000.

With the Ankara Declaration, Turkiye, Azerbaijan and Uzbekistan reaffirmed their unequivocal support for each other's sovereignty, territorial integrity and inviolability of international borders. A very detailed and strategic declaration on foreign policy coordination and economic integration...

Greece needs to stop thinking that it owns every system it buys with its ass and decides to whom it can be sold.

I think the best solution was to build two ports, one terminal north of the airport and another in the Saros gulf, and a direct and express railway. But this type of mega investment is not economically feasible as it would not generate urban rent and moreover we cannot forcibly close the passage...

New achievement unlocked: neo-mughalism :) So this leaves only Greater Azerbaijan for the return of the 3 gunpowder empires era. It makes me laugh every time these orientalist idiots, especially the turkophobic ones, make up elements out of their ass. The irony is that the author's foster...

While US companies are at each other's throats and China is pushing the sector with state support, the EU region is currently a bystander. In our country, unfortunately, despite the fact that it will affect all industrial and service areas, it is of interest to a very limited circle. The T3...

Big contracts with Saudi Arabia and Pakistan are likely to come within the year. Pakistani defense social media is speculating 2034 as the possible date for the delivery of the KAAN for the Pakistani air force. I wonder at what stage are the Jinnah class design activities? I have a feeling...

Once vertical launch capability is achieved on an air-independent propelled attack submarine under the MILDEN program, nuclear propulsion is all that remains—a politically sense, when considered in conjunction with the Navy’s expansion vision after reaching deterrent power projection. If my...

TB-3 is almost a tailor-made solution for Trieste and Cavour. While some Europeans tend to make this pride issue, the Italians are now taking a more pragmatic stance and it seems they are sincere about strengthening defense cooperation, which will inevitably produce positive results in favor of...

In a way, I think we can also see these developments as Italy's desire to revive the piaggio p.2hh. For Baykar, Italy is in a position to create favorable conditions for it to become a major unmanned systems supplier in the EU market. The collaboration between Leonardo and Baykar has the...

I am really looking forward to see how the concept of USV-FAC teaming will evolve. FAC missile boats are by nature an attack platform, so low detectability is among the main criteria. I'm thinking out loud: could USVs work like the weapons and sensors traditionally carried on FAC? In other...

INTERVIEWER: “Why did you revoke John Bolton's security clearance, sir?” TRUMP: “Because I think that was enough time. You get a job, You want to do a job. We're not going to provide security for people for the rest of their lives. Why should we? I thought he was a very stupid person but I...

In Piaggio's stalled UCAV project, Leonardo was the project partner and the most important system supplier. I think this should not be an ordinary visit, but a meeting to discuss possible cooperation. If Leonardo and Baykar came together, they could meet the armed and special purpose UAV needs...
