FNSS or Otokar? I can not imagine either Otokar or FNSS wishing to give Turkey military might. Add Vestel to that. LOL

I don't know what percentage of construction projects goes to pro Akparti businessmen but it is understandable that they feel that they will be treated reasonably when they get the tender and that's why feel attracted to participate. The fact that many projects go to that way does not...

I don't know what it is. Turkish constructors have been second after China in the global market for many years. I should say that not every situation that will arise is foreseeable and there has to be some flexibility to enable projects to move forward. People don't want to be presented with...

There are nice words that can be favored by people but the notions behind those words can be manipulated and used by ill intended outsiders towards weakening the nation's interests. Good thing the nation can tell what is good and what is bad for the national interest when the going gets tough...

I am always in favor of a strong Türkiye which can realize our full potential and defend our interests as well as our friends'. I stand with the Erdoğan government which is the only government that can maximize Turkey's interests.

Conan the Barbarian was the first fighting game I ever played. I am not much of a gamer but my brother is / became one. And I led him into computing / gaming.

Tübitak develops N95 and N99 mask filter material.

MAP shared here. This thread is the Cartography section where you can share maps.

Most of the stuff that goes on at Technofest are entry level student stuff. However this year there is the Helicopter Design competition which has the potential to bring out innovative stuff that can serve real purposes. Turkish industry has kept working on the acquisition of existing technology...

I remeber seing it at a trade-show in Istanbul more than 2 years ago. Who could say that it may be of critical importance going forward I would have a closer look if I knew.

Apparently it is one of the engines studied for the development of TS1400 turbo-shaft helicopter engine. Probably with the combustion chamber common with the now matured TS1400 but the compressor and exhaust are of the type for a jet engine. It sucks air from the front and exhausts the...

He is definitely not talking about minor changes. He explains things to non-aviators so he oversimplifies. A supersonic plane's wings have to be short and swept like a fighter jet's wings. And the nose of the plane has to be pointy to minimize drag. So expect something of the shape of a fighter...

I would like to propose a space surveillance radar to track satellite and other spacecraft movement. Considering that several nations have now founded their space forces we should watch out for space-borne hostile activity as well. Also Jamming spacecraft activity should be one of the...

If you move to east of Marmaris instead of Datça there is unobstructed airspace and the second stage falls in the Indian ocean. I don't know where the second stage falls when you launch into Blacksea. The second stage has been mentioned to fall. I am unaware of the second stage being left in...

We don't need to go that far as to merge nations. All we need to do is make close relations enough to watch each other back and increase wealth. A military pact and common policy in foreign relations is good enough to maximize common strength. Like a tighter knit EU. Or EU with military...

There are Uzbekistan nationals and Turkmenistan nationals living and working in my neighborhood in Istanbul. Another decade and Türkiye can be the pillar nation where other Turkic nations can lean on. It is all up to Türkiye's realization of its potential and strengthening itself to support...

While we still have the F16s they will perfectly do the multi-role missions considering the precision munitions we now have. We rather need a speedy interceptor for close range interception. I would rule out bomber roles and concentrate on interception and close range air dominance. This plane...

I don't know which way you exactly need to shoot to get to orbit but from what I know it is better to shoot closer to the equator along with the other criteria of watching where your litter will fall. From this knowledge a Datça launch seems to be a more favorable option than a Sinop launch...
