Wasn't Hürjet assembly supposed to start in June? We are at half of June, no sign of it yet.

Yes less VLS but these ones are Quad pack'able: 48 missiles

There are 3 version announced 2x 222 hp 2x 450 hp 2x 750 hp but only one load capacity announced. It is evident with different power levels you will get different load capacities. So do not bite yourself on the 1350kg external load specification. Is it still 1350kg with 2x750hp? Don't think so

How do you know? Do you know the real specs of Akinci, or just the minimal design specs

Difference with F35 is that F35 is multirole with primarily air to ground function TFx is multirole with primarily Air to Air function Their designs differ in max speed, flight height etc.

How much is the worth of the deal? How much does Indonesia pay????

No, not pricetag but capabilities! There are 2 (main) matters You have to see that Turkish defense industry made an enormous growth in the past 10 years. When was Milgem developed? It started in 2008 (if I recal well), the tech level we had 13 years ago and now is not comparable anymore...

What exactly are we looking at? Rain drops?

As much as I critisize sometimes BMC, I agree to the fact to use BMC trucks for our projects. Why use Mercedes, MAN trucks while we have our own company.

Well keep fingers crossed, I hope for my country that huge cashes of oil / gas can be found But at same time I'm sceptical, we've seen these type of "news" before, coincidentally whenever Turkey is in the wake of a huge crisis we magically find oil and gas everywhere, that turns out to be gaz...

Rubin was a pro-Turkey jewmerican until the "one minute" episode, later he turned anti-Turkey I should better say he is not pro or anti Turkey, he is pro-Israel

No VSTOL is very short take off and landing STOVL is short take off Vertical landing Hurjet cannot do vertical landing with some modifications, the design has to change from scratch. A complete new design aircraft would be needed. I do not know if it is possible though to modify the Hurjet...

They have conflicting interests. We do not have problems with German companies, they are eager to sell us what we want. Our problem is with German politicians, they want to block whatever they can (and they do, it is not MTU decision to stop engine deliveries)

Bence VTOL olamaz, VSTOL belki

Submarines are different, they are financed by German banks. And payment is over a long period If Germany cancels the subs, than there will be no payment to the German banks, is a shot in own foot!

Drones like TB2 though vulnerable are usefull any time, they are good scout's with high resolution day and night camera's they can take out supply logistics, they can take out tanks and give CAS (Close Air support) to ground troops. It is always better to have them, than not to have them

That's a bit strange to put it this way as Tubitak is not a production company but an R&D company / institute. Tubitak develops, companies like Roketsan, MKEK will produce. They are not competition but cooperating companies.

Good news comming soon tweets Polish defense minister (I wonder what news :) )

So are the Aksit's! Mahmut Aksit is prof. dr. and CEO of TEI. A nephew of his is professor at a Dutch university (prof. doktor engineer Mehmet Aksit), I've met and spoke with him on several occations. A very brilliant professor who has finished 2 Universities if I remember well, he is leading...

Hard to say, to be honest I do not think that the UAE exports much so the bulk of the income has to come from the UAE army. To a certain extend that can suffice but a company that cannot expand will in the end crumble (South Africa's Denel is a good example, a very good company suffered when it...
