Thanks for clarifying one more time where Canada stands At this point. Most people, are not aware of the fact that Canada and USA kinda interwoven at defense of North America. Guess wait and see is the name of the game. Oh, and btw, you’re right. His first term was not as harassing as his...

Among all 4th gen jets, it’s the cheapest solution, sure, but Saab offer supposedly involves a local production by Bombardier. And it also includes the production for Ukraine as well (maybe to sweeten the deal) which when combined would‘ve require a substantial investment initially. But all...

The decision on Canadian F-35 was around since early this year. Bu Grippen came out as a candidate recently and I agree that it’s hardly capable of fulfilling some tasks of F-35. Nevertheless, haven’t seen any legit claims on this deal from Canadian side. Exactly 👍

I’ve recently seen this at some media outlets and social media but I only take it seriously because of the poster, Mr. Arda Mevlütoğlu, a well respected defense analyst. “By the way, @saab is in talks with Canadian Bombardier for the licensed production of the Gripen. The Gripen was being...

Due to recent TurAF C-130 crash, my X feed algorithm brought this IAF PC-7 crash post. First of all, I hope crew is OK ‘cause haven’t seen anything regarding their situation. The poster seems so aggravated and his claims put the plane into ’flying coffin’ category. Couldn’t help but wonder...

Kozan Erkan: “May Allah never let anyone sink this low. Someone with a military background wouldn't make a post like this. It's highly likely work of unqualified staff Dendias assigned for social media. Nevertheless, it didn't befit the Greek Air Force.” I feel the same way. I’m not raged or...

Former USS Tang (SS - 563) Decommissioned from Turkish Navy inventory (S 343) back in 2004 and now a museum ship in İzmir, Turkey

We should also take into account the political and even strategic concerns of any given country as well, I believe. Like one man’s food other man’s poison, you know. Turkey, for instance, parading every step of its projects with a lot of fanfare, if you ask me. But I also can understand the...

I must admit, i don’t follow media influencers. Some, I’m only aware of, some vaguely have an idea about but the gist of it, I can’t say I care what they say. Carlson’s shift surprised everyone (yes, I’m aware of this one) but from where he stands it’s not (technically) very much far from where...

“Mustafa Kemal was not a socialist. But it seems that a good organizer is a highly understanding, progressive, good-thinking and intelligent leader. He is waging a war of liberation against the robbers. I believe that he will humiliate the imperialists and defeat the Sultan with his wound. (V...

Ok, thanks for the clarification @Nilgiri

So let me get this straight; the Dutch took over a Chinese owned company which 70% of its core production materialized in China with the hope that they‘d (Dutch, not Chinese) pass the US scrutiny just fine. And Dutch also hoped/believed that they’d continue to be the sole chip distributor with a...

I can’t see that happening as her husband was born outside USA and only a naturalized citizen.

This is a big deal really

I thought, this was an exclusive collaboration deal between BAE and TUSAŞ

Not desperate but as it scares, leave its allies alone and sometimes dump them in favor of another, one by one its irritated allies will stay away from US weapon systems.

Krallll! and I love you too Gurbonov 😇 Aslan Galatasaray Aslan Karabağ Hadi Fener Hadi Samsun Hadi be!

Beautiful. I filtered country of origin as Turkey and waited for Göktürk to move above Turkey. Nobody showed up. Only a ITUPSAT1 passed over Turkey. Turns out it was an İTÜ satellite and it was launched from India in 2009. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ITUpSAT1

And again, that Australian panelist looking at the world through his rose colored glasses and saying that they will achieve stuff and deliver it shortly and cheaply!

I really admire the optimism of the Australian panelist.
