    On that I agree, at least for now. Let me put it this way, it has less to do with decline of the West and more to do with the rise of the 'Rest'. and I am optimistic that our development can be achieved within a relative short period to catch up with the West. I probably has 50 years of my life...

    In coming decades Turkey should Prioritise Middle East and North Africa, South America and (specially) south east Asia for its trade initiatives. Market size and the economy of Indonesia, Malaysia, Bangladesh, Thailand, Vietnam will multiply in next 2/3 decades. (Around 650 millions people)

    Those aren't delusions. It is just that, West's decline is not what people think in their mind when hear about the term or how fast it would be.

    That sounds absurd. It doesn’t matter if Turkey has more advanced AAM than AIM-120, because ultimately it can only be integrated with OZGUR jets and few other block 40. (that Turkey has source code of) Majority of the F-16 still need to use US weapon systems.

    I think at this point what we need to understand is that, TurAF nor the potential adversaries will evaluate KAAN's capability on its exact RCS value compare to its peers. (Like F-35 or F-22) There are three level of war-fighting in any domain. *Tactical *operational *strategic The only 5th...

    Still, i think it is possible. $20 billions seems to be official estimate. https://crsreports.congress.gov/product/pdf/R/R47493 However, i find it hard to believe Turkey would move forward with such absurd numbers. Instead, 32 Typhoon for $6 billions and modernization of remaining 45 F-16...

    I strongly suspect, F-16 that didn't undergo Peace Onyx III (PO-III) programme can be upgraded to ÖZGÜR. "Interestingly, the air-launch of the BOZDOĞAN missile was performed from an F-16C Block 40 aircraft, which did not receive avionic upgrades under PO-III and F-16 MSM Projects. The...
