An army whose officers rob banks needs to reconsider its spending. https://www.ekathimerini.com/news/1199576/army-colonel-charged-with-multiple-bank-robberies/

European history cannot be written without the Turks. Popular European historiography only considers the Ottomans, but in fact we are much deeper than that, we mixed and fused. As once Charles Bronson said, "Blessed be my God that I am a Turk." (The real name of Charles Bronson, one of the...

PLET equipments successfully deployed! At this stage, the March 2023 target is becoming increasingly realistic. Pipeline End Termination (PLET) systems are typically used in new construction where a pipeline terminates or needs to be jumpered to another location, such as an FPSO, refinery...

After the region formed by the Cudi and Gabar mountains was cleared of terrorism, oil reserves of 150 million barrels were discovered. - Melih Han Bilgin | General Manager of TPAO It is claimed that once the oil reserve found in Gabar Mountain starts to be operated, the region will be able...

If we define the Hurjet as a low-cost light attack type and the MMU as the main combatant representing the highest capability point, I think these two programs will represent two classes, not two aircraft. In other words, I predict that both programs will fork and produce variants with serious...

It may not be politically/geopolitically correct to drill in/near territorial waters in succession. But, in a way, I would like to think that these last drilling activities are prioritized in terms of the speed at which they can be brought into the economy due to some findings, rather than...

The Azerbaijan Turkish Army and the Turkish Armed Forces are conducting joint exercises on the Aras River, the natural border between Azerbaijan and Iran. In the video, there are footages from the river crossing and engineering part.

I have only tried to describe a typical task load and its representation. Of course, many other ideas can be generated. What I am trying to say is that if the Hurjet LCA variant emerges as an aircraft with a lift capacity of about 5 tons at a cost of around 18-25 million dollars, it could become...

The KAI F/A-50, which has the similiar propulsion system as the TAI Hurjet, has an ordnance lifting capacity of 10,000-12,000 lb. This indicates that with the lightening of the aircraft structures in the Hurjet program, the Hurjet LCA variant can reach a payload capacity of 4500 kg, perhaps 5...

In 1934, Shah Pahlavi of Iran visits Turkiye. The meetings were held with great sincerity and in a spirit of brotherhood. Another video from the same visit. The two leaders of the East speak Turkish to each other.

If you are interested in rare historical videos like me, we can create a common thread by sharing examples here. As the first post of the thread, I wanted to start with the newly restored footage of Gazi Mustafa Kemal Atatürk introducing the Shah of Iran to the members of the parliament and the...

The average sea crossing between Baku and Turkmenbashi is 250 km. What needs to be done is very simple, the capacities of Kazakhstan Aktau port, Turkmenistan Turkmanbashi port and Azerbaijan Baku port should be increased immediately and the number of these train ferries should be increased...

"The first freight train from Turkiye to Uzbekistan within the Turkic States started its operation. This is an important transport project implemented by our Member States based on the decisions of our Organization's Samarkand Summit and the Transport Connectivity Program."

I really don't know what kind of division of work there will be. But, my guess is that Turkish naval aviation (for fixed wings) will enter a rapid development process through drones. On the TAI side, there is already a feasibility study for a naval LCA over on the Hurjet. Maybe it is not...

TAI TISU will be a stealthy penetrator-bomber if our predictions are correct. More precisely, while the KE is intended to be a drone with a close engagement capacity with an emphasis on agility, TAI TISU will focus more on stealth. In short, we expect it to be in the form of a flying wing...

Right, I apologize for the wrong photo. I hastily took a photo from google images, but even when you zoom in on the photo, it already says tb-2 on the tail boom. The reason I added Çaldıran was because the tail structure was the same as the De Havilland Vampire. In another thread, a friend of...
