F35 is a fine aircraft IF you use it like the US wants you to (purely defensive and against Russia), a scenario that probably never will happen and so you will have an expensive aircraft that is never used in battle. Probably they will turn a blind eye to bombing missions against terrorist. But...

Design of Otokar Cobra II is solely from Otokar itself. The base (chassis) is from AM General (I think licensed)

upgrading leopard 1 while we have leopard 2? Sorry but I see no logic in that.

Nope, I do not think so, even Leopard 2A4's popped up like melons against ATGM's. Won't even want to think about Leopard 1

Some people forget that also engine parts are somewhat standardized and when you build a new engine you use those standardized parts as well. It is like designing a circuit board and claim that it is copied because all resistors, capacitors and IC's look exactly like on other circuit boards.

Well this is the MTU 883 engine Considering Turkey needs engines for the Altay (that is already designed) and her older Leopard 2A4 tanks it is obvious that the engine layout size etc. has to be same / similar. So they'd probable look very close too (and of course MTU 883 serves as a good...

FCS change is most likely related with this

One TB2 crashed and Armenian got them

I feel an excuse coming up why we do not have to build Altay

SMASH nedir?

Are you sure, or is this a guess?

Ain't US embargoing too?

Do you know "tribology" ? It's a science and engineering of interacting surfaces in relative motion. It includes the study and application of the principles of friction, lubrication, and wear. Like air friction you have also water friction. At the Dutch university they were researching for...

Cavitation tunnels for universities is nothing special. I myself was part of a team building a similar water tunnel at the Dutch University of Twente

Agree completely, Turkey should have from begin on certified her planes with different engine options. Anyway a good lesson for us in future plane and helicopter projects.

Yes but the plane would have a re-certification, everything is possible but takes again time. Maybe a year?

Nope! You cannot just change the engine. Technically possible of course but you would not have it EASA certified

How to export them without engine? Did Canada not put a total embargo?

Advantage maybe yes, but at what price?

That's what I mean, things based on hearsay is never the right way to do it. I like to see full environment impact report feasibility reports calculated break even point (when the investment pays itself) expected income and expenses report You see everything around the canal is so vague it...
