    Georgia to further strengthen defence capabilities in 2021

    Curious if Russia would rather deal with a Georgia equipped with American weapons or Turkish weapons.

    Highly likely. This can put Göksungur to the top of the food chain of Turkish UAVs but we don't have much supporting evidence.

    It is highly likely that the engine in question is this engine; but no specs mentioned.

    List of the 5th Generation Fighter Aircrafts

    I will have to take the first firing date announced by the maker of the engine in consideration which is 2025 (?) to base my guesses. This engine comes after the makers have gathered experience in making engines. So the timeline may have been shortened somewhat. It may sound optimistic but it is...

    List of the 5th Generation Fighter Aircrafts

    I guess we will get to see TFX in use in small numbers as early as 2026. And with indigenous engine as early as 2027. If not earlier. Just a feeling.

    In a good way. Technology allows to have control over what's going on. As long as you can control it more and diverse population means you can have your hand outside of your country. Which every capable nation have done. Look at the US, UK, France, Russia and many others, whey have been doing...

    TR Propulsion Systems

    A smaller engine than a full size fighter jet engine like the TS1500 or TS300 would be a good testbed to work on to experiment towards exotic applications due to its smaller size which will mean easier handling. A VTOL UCAV derived from such an engine could be the Turkish version of an F35B...

    So now we have a name for the indigenous turbofan for Gezgin cruise missile. I had also heard the name TJ1600 as a jet engine but it is not mentioned in other news. However in one post TAI mentioned the number 34 as the number of projects they worked on. Which I believe includes several other...

    Being descendants of the Ottoman Empire that had accommodated 72 nations on its land what is too hard to achieve for Turkey.

    Nothing we can't handle about immigrants. You need to get outside of your comfort zone to achieve things. We didn't go through WW2, he have saved our stamina for slow wars. As we have ridden ourself from social diseases for the most part the matters of today are easy peasy.

    Analysis Wasting resources in the Turkish defense industry

    Drone development is not all that resource consuming and the rewards are high. Plus, success is not guarantied. So we need more companies to make sure there is success. They will pivot to other branches of the field like flying cars and robotics where we still lag behind. Until we have a big...

    We should let other nations implement vaccination at full scale before we go ahead with it. It is okay.

    COVID-19

    Good thing you are not is charge. You find gold but you think it is tin. Does it ever occur to you that you will pay all that money to Germany and the US while there are 15 vaccine candidates in development in Turkey. You would have wasted all the nations money.

    China is different from other nations. They still have communism and they can force their people to behave in a certain way. For a smaller and democratic country like Turkey we have a more limited set of policy tools.

    Turkey's First China-Bound Freight Train Enters China's Northwest Port

    No, I don't. I am not a fan of foreign brands investing in Turkey, especially those who will only do assembly job. But some will outsource the work to local makers and the other will export from Turkey and make money for the country. I think someday iron curtains between countries may be pulled...

    Dude you have no clue what is going on. Just the other day the completion of development and the delivery of a capable indigenous helicopter engine has been made. Being on this forum you would be expected to know better but really you have no clue. You are comparing Turkey with nations that have...
