You are missing something crucial. Turkey has the only large Nato or Us allied navy without integration to a system like AEGIS / PAAMS / APAR. We are part of nato but not exactly part of a large and deeply integrated international network for stopping ballistic missiles and air defense which...

No 10 lhd and 5000 kaan

Arleigh burke are also 2 billion a piece. Putting multiple siper system equivalent on a huge ship will obviously cost a lot. But we do need at least 4

Extreme strategic mistake

Im pretty sure US did use sm3 to kill drones before, they dont like to take risk trying to reduce risk with sm2

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...
