The Hürjet project has reached a very advanced stage. With a planned delivery date of 2025, the testing and verification phases of the aircraft avionics should already be at the completion stage. So, almost all of avionics incl FCS, communication systems and related equipment, human-machine...

If I am not mistaken, the Chinese have made very serious progress in this regard. China approved commissioning of thorium-powered reactor this year.

The new generation of ejection seat systems is one of the most extreme electromechanical systems in the world. Their design, operating procedures and the fact that this top-end engineering can be reliably used again and again under the most extreme conditions is a marvel of engineering. There is...

Turkiye should apply for the return of these artifacts with an official letter. These artifacts were smuggled during the Ottoman period. The act of smuggling was against the Ottoman state and Turkiye is the legal owner of the Ottoman financial debts to the UK and therefore the legal successor of...

In fact, initial work started 60 years ago and the Akkuyu site was identified more or less 50 years ago. But we could not move for decades. We were also one of the first countries in the world in terms of research reactor. Nuclear research in Turkiye started at a similar time to Korea. But 50...

I think these generational distinctions are worthy of further discussion, and there are some gray areas. Geometry is OK, maybe there may be some problems in new gen propulsion systems, but even in the structural part, not to mention the tons of parameters marketed as the innovation of the fifth...

Yes, there is also this issue. In fact, what you have underlined is probably a more important factor than what I have written. So we can say that our hand is not weak actually. Turks can find jets, at worst they can go to some alternatives even if its combatant capacity is lower. But these...

Another important detail is that the French and Canadians were pushed out in all three tenders. By extension, Korea also seems to have been excluded due to the consortium model. Russia, followed by China and, apparently, the UK on the SMR model, will take a big piece of the pie.

In the EF consortium, the UK in particular is taking a firm stance. Spain and the Italy also support this stance. Because all three countries have a good understanding of the value of the Turkish air force and a more coherent understanding of the geopolitics of continental Europe and the...

I don't think there will only be downscaled variants. With the dual TF-6000, or with again single engined if a mid-thrust class engine emerges later in this engine program, an aircraft with a much higher MTOW and possible operational range than the current ANKA-3 is definitely in the planning...

In addition to this, question 2: Can this (speculated) possible cooperation proceed as a parallel project with a private shipyard or public private partnership, independent of MILDEN? Lets say STM-TAIS-Navantia.

The Sarallar gang has been smashed. I congratulate the new minister, he is doing great things, he is one of our ministers whose name is on the way to becoming a legend in the history of our country. Years later, gangs and mafias began to be fought effectively. Not only the Black Sea mafia, but...

I apologize to the forum, but if the package of 250 planes does not include astronomical increases in the business share of Turkish aviation companies, and even more so, the location of one of the final assembly production facilities in TR, then it is a big idiocy. We are building an airplane...

The S-80 was probably the project that pushed Navantia to its limits the most. In fact, the Australian LHD project was more acceptable compared to the technical and planning problems Spain faced in the production of the S-80. I don't remember all the details, but I remember that one of the main...

Rampus Autonomous High Tech Underwater Rampus, a versatile reconnaissance and operation vehicle, is built with advanced technology, capable of carrying out all your operations up to a depth of 1000 meters on a predefined route, by remote control within range and autonomously outside the range...

Current developments indicate that we will enter a period of rapid product development and testing for SDVs, UUVs of various types and missions, and coastal type midget*(I mean high-tech anti-surface/underwater platforms not steel dump) submarines. When it comes to SDVs and UUVs equipped with...

Medium altitude test and flight with landing gear off. Step by step towards short take-off tests. When this beautiful bird takes off at 100-120 meters, it will be the first item on the agenda of many western defense blogs and fanzines. Cheap and fast production, ultra-versatile range of...

With respect and gratitude... Atatürk's immortality is related to the fact that he was more than a great thinker, he was the father of a nation, the leader of a national awakening. A great leader who dedicated his whole life to his nation, not only with his ideas, but with his flesh and blood...

A holocaust is taking place just south of us. Israel chose this, they have passed the point of no return. İMO, cooperation with Israel in the region from now on will be extremely damaging.
