That is true. Yeah, I remember that too. That is also true. But I think considering geopolitical angel and other broader possibilities with Turkish defence industry, TUSAS's options could be chosen at the end.

@Anmdt Couldn’t those Hisar based extended design ( the one was shared a month ago) be an option? Specially the one with 32 VLS. Or they still fall short and light?

Okay, that is interesting. But I found it on older F16s blocks too.

Army to procure 4 attack helicopter and BAF to procure 8. So, it is totally 12. Army's requirment wasn't heavy helos in the first place. That is exclusively BAF's requirment. T129 phase 2 is superior to older A129.

F119 has 8650 TAC.

AL-31 has MTBO of 1000 Hours. And total lifespan of 3000 hours. Which was increased to 4000 hours in AL-41 for SU-57.

I think I may have some idea. If it were to have increased range of 25/30 km like Spike NLOS or Akron LP, it would need to have extended Fins which will compromise its speed irrespective of seeker head due to its design philosophy, but will keep it up in the air for longer period of time by...

Are you sure? They flew it with Chinese engines in 2021 air show.

Inshallah, but I have fear relevant leadership from our side may lack the necessary will and proper planning. Usually, I am the hopeful one. But I don't think so. Turkish 155mm Firtina ii is too expensive. (Around 8/9 millions per units) When truck mounted ARPAN is ready it could be within...

Tourist numbers does not help with the bigger picture tbh. There are broader (not selective) online and off line statistics that indicates otherwise. And online opinions does matter. It particularly reflects the youth's opinions on certain topics.

Al Istikbal and Al Mustaqbal (not Mustakbil) can be used as synonyms. However, i agree this 'Future' sounds somewhat off.

Not really, such unification is unnecessary. Good economic and geopolitical framework like EU (if possible) is good enough.

India has somewhat comfortable and functioning diplomatic and economic relationships with majority of Muslim countries (Middles East, central Asia and South east Asia) on state to state level. Other than that, small Central Asian countries does not comes into limelight at all. However, this...

Good to know BD chose Boran over other options. @Isa Khan you previously suspected it. But I swear I wasn't lying when i said suppliers countries in the previous tender was only UK and Italy. http://www.dgdp.gov.bd/dgdp/AP_TEN/notice/373.pdf But now this one is definitely a new tender or a...

Yes, Istikbal (استقبال) means Reception but it also means FUTURE. (المستقبل)

Great idea to have in mind, but I think today’s operational cost-benefit analysis would render such concept practically useless.

Whatever her political views/actions are, only thing matters is she is not a Bangladeshi citizen. And there is nothing 'interesting' about half Bengali ethnicity. In Bangladesh the role of ethnic identity is not the same as it is in Turkey or middle east. Otherwise, we wouldn’t have established...

A well Articulated post. I couldn’t help but to comment on it if you don’t mind. This whole idea of clash of civilisations is unfortunately deeply rooted in Islamist Thinking all over the Muslim world. They just can't get over it. And as far as I understood from my observation, the fundamental...

This is below TOYGUN specs. For now KARAT IRST specs is not revealed yet. F-22 doesn't have any EOTS or IRST. Only F-35 does. F-35's old EOTS is 640x512 MWIR. Can identify and track targets from 90km. However, F-35 block 4 is supposed to get a new EOTS. (Which should exceed previous...

It would be interesting to comparatively examine Gokdemir's capabilities with HISAR O+/RF in details. For now, i can see one obvious advantages of HISAR O+/RF is duel pulse motors. Another one would be HISAR O+ IIR interceptor has 2x more range compared to ground launched Bozdogan. However...
