And how is Türkiye preparing? No EFs till 2030 and no F16 modernized yet?

Storm Shadow cannot be carried in the internal bay of the fighter jet. A radar like ERIS will detect the plane from a long distance. Even the missile itself is easier to detect than SOM-J, which is small, stealth, but still powerful enough. The idea is to carry it with a stealth drone like...

Agree. TEI is too sluggish. Baykar will be a very large company in the future. We are talking about an engine that Hürjet can fly with, it is not about 6.th generation engine, so no need for specialization here.

The concepts should be driven by the Turkish army. Not by some profit oriented CEOs who are just following some popular trends in bizarre ways. We have limited resources and time. We need to come up with the most impactful ideas. Turkish army officials need to spend more time with the industry...

if they use KTJ-3700 which is almost ready for Atmaca land version, it can reach up to 400km. KTJ-3700 is almost the same size as the currently used KTJ-3200, so I'd be surprised if they dont go this way. SOM-J should rather have 500km range to be a strategic weapon.

Your EDIT part tells a sad story unfortunately. But in my "scenario" I am already allowing a few years before NATO will effectively dissolve, or Israel is able to convince Trump or the next american president. If we use this time with utmost effectiveness, we may have a chance even against the...

Although I support this fully, no government with election concerns would do it. Because the costs of obeying Israel and US would seem much lower to them. If Türkiye renounces its regional ambitions, in the short term, Turkish economy may even perform better. Ordinary people would like this. In...

They would be much better protected with what? Patriots, THAAD? Iron Dome components? David’ Sling, Arrow? I dont think the protection of air fields is much better than the Israeli cities. Maybe some additional layer of point defence but that wouldnt be effective against ballistic missiles...

I think similar to you. People who have read my previous messages would know that I am urgently advocating the mass production of most effective weapon systems in the next couple of years, we might not have much time. But I also have some questions I am not able to answer. MUGEM will be built in...

US can bomb Iran to stone age if it wants. What damage Iran was able to inflict to US and Israel, in a military sense.? The only thing holding back US here is oil prices and its implications for US elections in November. I hope our decision makers do not think like you, as it will be a big mistake.

Just because Türkiye got a bit stronger militarily and improved its relations with some african and arab countries does not mean ottoman empire will be reestablished, not even in a symbolic sense. I am not a big fan of ottomans as they did not favor Turks enough. And they were very lenient...

Because Israel is paranoic. Neither Pakistan nor Türkiye is a threat to Israel. Yet Israel would attack countries around it just because they openly criticize its actions. For instance, in Syria Türkiye just wants to have a stable and prosperous government, and yes under some Turkish influence...

Israel cannot let this regime survive, because then the mullahs will get the nuclear bombs from North Korea. Even if US retreats, given the pressure on oil prices, Israel will continue until a more docile Iranian gov is established. There is no turning back now. And the next target is Pakistan...

It is very telling that in the letter you are presenting, azerbaijani Turks are asking Aliyev to get help from ISRAEL!!! Not from Türkiye! They already know very well, with our low risk approach there will be no help from Türkiye. Some humanitarian help yes. But no other help, no weapons etc...

That is my dream all along! But kind of pity that we are saying we should protect 30 million Turks there from 5 (?) million kurds?! What those Oguz Turks are doing? Why they are not getting armed? I dont think our current gov will do anything there, so this will remain a dream.

Well, this is what I read from mainstream media including our own TV channels. When they report from Tel Aviv I see an unscathed skyline, no smoke, no damaged buildings. But even if we assume Israel keeps things secret, similar picture in Dubai, Doha etc. If there was a large damage there we...

can you explain what is a lie or false information in my message?

I listened to Carney as he was talking about improving relations with other countries and he said very positive things about Türkiye and mentioned specifically cooperation in nuclear energy. With Trump in power, Canada is desperately seeking to diversify their trade and defence cooperations, so...

No "real" damage was inflicted neither to Israel (only one building was hit with 9 causalties) nor to US bases so far (only 6 soldiers dead). Whereas I am sure they decimated most of Iran's military capacity by now. Only few hidden missile batteries and some drone facilities probably remaining...

They won't give us that much time. Even before the strikes to Iran began, ex prime minister Naftali Bennet said Türkiye is the next. Michael Rubin posted on X: 2026 Iran, 2036 Türkiye. But as I said, they won't wait that much. While we should prepare for such a war like there is no tomorrow, we...
