    Yup, like the other delivery from august. That was about 1 Siper and 3 Hisar Os, 1 Korkut battery and plenty of EW systems I think. But, the other issue is of course missile production to match the system production. Steel Dome is basically a catchall from the smallest Kangal on a Kirpi to...

    The continuously elusive 800hp Akıncı-C engine is GE's H-80? Avio is Europe based with Italian subestablishments taking the lion's share. I can easily see if Italy orders Akıncı, it could be with H-80s. "General Electric announced in its 2024 company presentation that it is conducting a...

    Very interesting, this. "The US-led International Coalition forces took over the protection of the Industrial Prison in the center of Hasakah city, accompanied by helicopters, without giving any reason."

    It's the same for TAI and private shipyards that build military ships as well. It's been like this for the last few months; before then, basically everywhere was horrible quality.

    TR Air-Force TF-X KAAN Fighter Jet

    It isn't, but it was also never was a set list. It frames American fighter aircraft since 60s, that's it. Calling Kaan a Next Gen fighter is suitable. It doesn't matter if it's in service or not, it's a next gen fighter in development. If it's cancelled tomorrow, it will be a cancelled next gen...

    TR Turkiye's F-35 Project and Discussions

    Barrack's latest to Bloomberg; can be read as an update on the Turkish F-35s "They were part of the F-35 program, they have four F-35s in hangars in California, and Turkey was a major part of the airframe production." First time hearing 4 F-35s instead of 6. Also dispels the claims that there...

    Plan is a big word. They only requested a budget for a single ship so far. In the future as they need it, maybe, but nothing for now.

    Not at all. They used to have plenty of frigates, 50 Knox and 50 OHPs served in USN between 60s and 90s. USN always saw frigates as escort ships, to escort convoys that would carry vital materiel and manpower between US and Europe against submarines and surface raiders. Now in Pacific, they will...

    5% by 2035 is simply not good enough. We're not getting a carrier we can deploy or 8 AD destroyers with 5% by 2035. Re NATO military spending, Turkey has a special place and is out of sight of Trump; because unlike other members it's mostly self capable and has a large army, even though it's...

    That's another, larger point of contention. All those plans to enlarge and modernize all forces with more expensive, larger and more modern platforms, but defence spending still not hitting even 3%. We can only hope that the people who ask for, design and build these things also have an idea of...
