    Abdulhamit II was a mediocre ruler. He was not a magnificent ruler AKP voters like to believe he had many shortcomings and failings and he has some success stories. The empire lost territory as big as 2x Turkiye in his rule. He was also not as evil as CHP voters portray him. He tried his best to...

    Live Conflict Military Operations Syria

    Even if this is true it is meaningless. Erdogan changed his decision right in the middle of the operation in the past and stopped the ongoing operations. The US will threaten him with something when the US feels the Turkish Armed Forces advanced enough and he will stop where the US wants...

    We shouldn't compromise we should go for a complete 30-40km deep(depending on the geography) safe zone from Afrin to the Iraq border.

    F-35 has rivets too if you look at its close-up shots. F-35 uses special rivets which create a smoother surface compared to normal rivets. After fastening the rivets a special filler/putty is applied on top of the rough areas caused by rivets to make the surface silky smooth.

    This is not the only solution there are many ways to improve range. Bora is produced with old technology. Roketsan has better rocket engine technology nowadays. A redesigned rocket engine with the same diameter and length can provide a sizeable increase. Reducing the weight of the missile by...

    It seems like its placement is wrong. It should be placed on top of the Nif mountain (1400-1500m) just behind the İzmir. Yes, it is. https://www.translatorscafe.com/unit-converter/tr-TR/calculator/radar-horizon/ A radar placed at the top of a 1500m mountain can pick up a target at 100m...

    Yes, the aircraft carrier is a thing I can confirm that %100 but not in the short term. There won't be any AC before 2030. I expect the first welding ceremony in 2027/28.

    Germany eased its stance now the first REIS class will be delivered this year but the trust in Germans is vanished and SSB started the nationalization of the whole propulsion package fuel cells, main electric motors, and batteries. This is a clear answer to Germans. Sonar development has been...

    Japan is showing interest in the Tempest project so Japan might join the Tempest. Japan is also working with RR for the engine of their 5th gen fighter. Tempest is a 6th gen fighter that is planned to enter service around 2040. We can handle the Tempest project schedule.

    He is also talking about the most respected universities like Cambridge. You should listen from start to finish. Even the most elite universities are prone to academic degeneration and decadence.

    If Japan is on the train IMHO no need for Sweden for the Tempest. UK and Japan bring real hi-tech capability, Turkiye has its own capability and cost-effectiveness.

    Why you are always thinking in binary? The missile launcher should have an incorporated laser designator but the system should also have the capability of external designation. This is a really simple and easy thing to do. 1x 1km rifle mounted designator per team 1x or 2x 5km handheld...

    Why shoot and stay still? Laser illumination can be made by various assets UAVs and UGVs are the first to come to my mind. There are also many gadgets like rifle mounted and handheld laser designators.

    Trusted laser guidance is a good alternative to PLOS it is cheap and reliable. Producing a 1km range laser designator will be a piece of cake. I think our 90mm 1km ranged ATGM should be laser-guided.

    I think we should tone down and assign two reviewers/reporters to Sweden and Finland. We should get routine update reports from assigned staff about how Sweden and Finland are addressing our concerns. Of course, this should be a never-ending process like the EU process of Turkiye.

    Yeah, it is a bad deal unless we can find ways to arrange a deal behind the back of the problem country Germany. UK, Spain, and Italy can be reasoned with but Germany is a deal-breaker. Also, tranche 1 is a shitty fighter. If we got them we have to upgrade them either to Tranche 3/4 or with a...

    No, it won't take weeks. It will take a few days and won't need a shipyard. A navy facility that has the ability to supply and replenish navy ships will be enough. I got the info from the Navy sources. No official announcement yet and may not be announced as there is a possibility to do it with...
