They could have done it the first time if they really wanted, they just want whoever is there to play ball and be a good little puppet. So if threatening the existing one and leaving them defenseless doesnt work they just put the final nail in coffin and place new one

I thought F22 was a nightmare to update and has lacked significant improvement and updates until very recently due to both complexity and cost including F35 style helmet and such

This entire thing is a misconception. Engine thrust level not reaching 35000 is not what's holding the engine back. If we could make a slightly less strong engine much faster we would, but that's not the point. The first iteration of TF35000 may not even match that number but for any engine to...

Reducing unnecessary expenses and government spending is one way rather than selling strategic national assets, privatizing of which will cripple every aspect of life and economy like main roads.

There is talk of production in Canada as well, EF doesn't have that option. Partnership with saab could open a pathway for more independent fighter production in the future for Canada. So after gripen, they may co-develop the successor as well, bombardier, l3 harris and PW, CAE and others...

Idiots missing core Turkish demographic for sake of terror sympathisers will continue to lose

Properly effective VLO requires electrical continuity of the material. Selective application of RAM will only have modest results.

Yes the most stable destruction. There are so many gangs and mafias now we have flatbread mafia in mersin. Motorcycle gangs everywhere doing stunts right in front of traffic police on the busiest roads and streets of the city with no penalty.

It would be seen as an escalation, they can't without risking sanctions and losing at least half the value of what that gold is, or perhaps more

I mean since 7 are under construction, it could maybe make sense to sell one of the second batch, but selling not one but two from first batch after staff have been assigned is not nice.

Hurjet with IWB would be a complete redesign and would require a twin engine configuration so thats already far fetched. It would be a different plane

Im quite happy, delay by couple months is ok

Let's buy 12 omani as well on the side that would be nice from 44 to 56 EF. They can serve for training and spares

The more I hear about mke the more I feel they should not be involved with anything besides maiking some nato rounds

We can't really know this, and my answer is speculation, but I'd expect that to be around 100km give or take 20? But a few factors, rafale ew is told to be really good and it's rcs somewhat lower than typhoon. Typhon in turn has a larger radar than rafales which is much smaller closer to f16...

Trump claimed they basically kidnapped Maduro and his Wife

That's good news. Gökbey is good but 925's engine problem doesn't seem like it will be solved soon.

If we had given it a codename which we still haven't at least that would have stayed. Like T-23 etc. The name is also free, wonder if Germany would sue for Junkers T23 name in 1920. At least it would be then T-23S Saeta 2, and T-23A etc would be Hürjet, Like F35I is named Adir

Solid delivery plan. The new production ones will take a long time, but Qatari fighters could arrive as soon as next year and 2028 for Aesa modernized Omani fighters, that's pretty good. If we get 24 by 2029, further deliveries of the remaining 20 year by year is Ok
