Basically yes. Modern aircraft and also the TFx will have electro optics to search for enemy aircraft without radar on (in order not to expose herself, same that F22 does). But that means you do not want to be spotted by enemy aircrafts electro optics either, so you need stealth in the IR...

It has to be 4.5 gen first. We simply do not posses the engines to make her 5th generation. If TEI manages to make suitable engines by 2030 we can upgrade to 5th gen.

Whoever the Frenchman killed it is obvious those are not just regular terrorists, PKK goes apeshit about it. Must have hurt!

TRG-230 guidance is: GPS / GLONASS / INS no illumination needed, just coordinates

Which wars? Can you sum them? By my knowledge only used extensively in Afghanistan and some use in Syria (only in taking out some ISIS operatives, not war). When we count the number of tank and AD system kills than MQ9 does not even come close to Tb2. Its really interesting how despite having...

Well with "it seems" you are already declaring your opinion and not something factual, I guess all the countries ordering the TB2 are a bit in disagreement with you. Quality does not show on photo's, it shows herself on the battlefield. On picture the French Neuron looks quite impressive and...

If this type of tailles drone of 7+ tonnes is true than we are talking about a drone like the US Northrop Grumman X-47B. And than we are talking about an engine in the class of F110GE129 (F16 engine) My guess would than be that TAI is planning like in the TFx to use the F110 engine in the...

Greek U-214 has the same propeller but without the vortex diffuser (I wonder whether the vortex diffuser can be placed later on as well, if so the Greeks have exactly the same propeller) But without vortex diffuser the Greek submarines are a bit in dissadvantage as the modern torpedo's like...

Yes you are right, I did not mean disrespect or any but to make the difference between Azeri and Persian (both Iranian)

I think the Azeri population and Persian population of Iran is too intermingled to separate, it would need a Syria like destruction of Iran to achieve such a separation. And such a destruction of Iran would be devastating for the whole region, a result that Azeri Iranians would never wish.

I doubt that the TF6000 engine can be ready that fast to be used, it would mean the prototype engine without stress test would be put on the TISU. Highly doubtful and dangerous. I would expect the TISU prototype to fly with Ukrainian engine first and in time switch over to the TF6000

Why do you make assumptions, find one single writing of me talking about replacing Erdogan. I am regarding the matters without a political label like you do, economy is extremely bad managed. Persons like you view any criticism as being for the opposition. Fact is that the opposition is even...

CHP as is has not even a cure for herself, Turkish political arena is worse than a slapstick movie

Half truths make the people believe, we have a truth that some gas has been found in the black sea, nice but now it is filled up with miraculous petrol finds (just giving the people the false hopes of economy that is down the drain will survive). It is a common played strategy (like the shale...

Call me old fashioned but announcements close to election times always have always an "I Wonder" part in it.

Why are people directly offended? I hope there is a real cache of oil found in Turkiye, we need it very very much. But it is also not the first time that the government announces miraculous gas finds prior to elections. Have we all forgotten the big announcement of shale gas in Turkiye prior to...

Exactly, with Blk 30 we do it out of embargoes not because it is financially the best solution

Well, with the blk30 we practically do this already. But replacing all single parts does not make sense, buying a brand new more modern fighter over time makes more sense. Do you want to use a 2000 model Mercedes of which you replace all parts or do you want to have a 2022 model?

Why canibalize? TAI can manufacture almost all parts and certain parts that are not produced is because it is cheaper to import them

Never put all the eggs in one basket! Yes our drones as bombers and fighters get more and more important, but do not make the mistake of neglecting the fighter aircraft force. We have to keep our F16's tip top as well
