    Morocco were also nice enough to score one against themselves at the end to help Canada out a bit hehe @Knowledgeseeker

    There were some good david vs goliath scalps in this tourney so far, more than usual. I just wish it was hosted somewhere else. Too much FIFA + Qatar corruption, shenanigans involved.

    For time being (given I may not be free this weekend, but maybe a future one instead)... I will mention in any massively time + resource consuming endeavour (though time is just a resource as well, and quite likely the most important and nuanced one) in the human realm: When you have a series...

    Nice win over French Goliath by 🇹🇳 @Fachfouch Real pity you lost to Australia earlier, that was crucial game in final outcome for Tunisia to not progress to next round.

    "Could", "would", "should" w.r.t "breakthrough" stuff Asked and answered your honour: So you seem to not be understanding what I am getting at here when it comes to actual matured realisation and application of breakthroughs in the short, mid and long term final relevancy. Take any of the 3...

    This is an industrial gas turbine. There is even less weight/size issue than a marine one (which is then quite different to aviation where this becomes even more of a premium). I'm just waiting for 2030s decade when we actually have more "in operation" data on turboprops/shafts and turbofans...

    I will reply on this later in the propulsion thread with maybe a couple specific examples of underlying technology that folks may not know all that much about. There are key divergences in RnD as it relates to MTBO and other reliability matters just within the western ecosystem (GE vs RR vs...

    They would try retain it (in logistics chain) for later disposal if possible in the situation, since that is less evidence you leave behind for enemy to know your maneuvering etc later in their potential recon. But if not possible logistically and its very "hot" exchange etc, then its just...

    Yes TEI and GE collab is discussed in quite some detail in the propulsion thread at various places. Folks should really search and read things in there. The capital machinery + process control for example that Turkiye has in the eskisehir facility is a big leg up to how completely non-NATO...

    If you are satisfied with Russian level MTBO and reliability in the end, it just often more economical to import from Russia for vast majority of countries (that have technical experience but various geopolitical and strategic priorities and inheritances). Replicating that base level with say...

    For comparison, India FGFA (Su-57 supposed derivative) sunk in expense was at least about 250 million USD till India called it quits over workshare and further commitment/costs/ToT etc that were coming up. i.e the whole thing ended being exploratory and somewhat nominal. Similar to Turkey with...

    Honestly I didn't even know what the Turkish "stereotypes" were till the internet exploded into the reddit/twitter era of it now...and everything just becomes uni-dimensional in its own way for that because people are looking for simple hot takes to have some fun and smack talk online and so on...

    Its some guy with wild theories that is no longer posting here....no need to discuss much further. Indonesia will make its decisions as it sees fit regarding what it needs sooner vs later, lets see how it all shapes up, both are important in the end. Like madokafc says, the decisions are...

    Actually not for me. I knew a number of competent Turks in first school (in Singapore) and then engineering at university and then work early on. One Turk (professor) I owe much to, one of arguably the top 10 published research folks in thermodynamics here in Canada, explained at quite some...

    Probably busy finding a way to blame India for paying the Korean to say this....to go along with the larger "India is taking over the IMF!!" conspiracy theory he doubled down on and other weird stuff that gathers muster in the low IQ forum there whenever I take a peek.
