    TR Missile & Smart Munition Programs

    But here one must ask: what is the unit cost of an Eren and a Shahed-like drone? If the missile costs more than 40–50,000 USD, then it is an expensive proposition, not to mention the additional costs of launching the drone, logistics, maintenance and arming an Akinci or Aksungur drone for a...

    TR Air-Force EF Typhoon

    I would consistently limit the proportion of German hardware in the Eurofighter Typhoon to a minimum. Whilst it cannot be avoided entirely, any additional integration unnecessarily strengthens German influence over maintenance, software, approvals and future upgrades. The aim must be to keep...

    TR Missile & Smart Munition Programs

    The ATMACA still has a range of 250+ km; it may even reach 270+ km. In fact, a range of 300+ km is essential in order to launch these cruise missiles as Navy Version from Ships and Submarines near Northern Cyprus at specific targets in the Middle East (ports, bases and ships on Coasts) on...

    TR TF35000 Turbofan Engine

    The situation surrounding the TEI TF-6000 and TF-10000 remains strikingly unclear. Whilst there is talk of hundreds of test runs for the TF-6000, reliable technical details or clear milestones are still lacking. We have seen a few short test run videos, but that is all. The situation with the...

    As far as is known, the SOM family is currently being further developed to achieve greater ranges – presumably using the KTJ-3700 engine or a specially optimised variant as the SOM M cruise missile, which is designed to fit into the TAI KAAN’s internal weapons bay. SOM M In parallel, it is...

    What is the range of the SOM J? Given that other cruise missiles in the same class as the TAURUS, Joint Strike Missile (JSM) and the SCALP EG/Storm Shadow have a range of at least 500+ km.

    Live Conflict Israel-US vs Iran War (2026)

    This is not only unlikely, but borders on a deliberate denial of reality. If the situation were so clear-cut, there would be no conflict with the Palestinians, which has been escalating for decades. The systematic marginalisation, discrimination and, in some cases, deeply inhumane treatment of...

    Live Conflict Israel-US vs Iran War (2026)

    That may all well and good, and I don’t want to be too harsh in my judgement – the Iranians are certainly overdoing it really, they are not entirely blameless in this matter – but the conflict hasn’t come out of nowhere; you really do treat Muslims in your own countries like absolute dirt. That...

    Live Conflict Israel-US vs Iran War (2026)

    I have a question: how likely is a false flag attack from Iranian territory? Iran could indeed attack Turkey deliberately, but I cannot understand why a country that is currently being bombed would want to bring a third, very powerful party into play in order to finally bomb it back to the Stone...

    TR UAV/UCAV Programs | Anka - series | Kızılelma | TB - series

    Too expensive, don't forget these are disposable products where the loss is factored in. Even if it only carries payloads of 4-5 tonnes, that's enough. It's supposed to take over some of the missions, not all of them. A total of 12,000 lbf with 2 engines is enough to carry these payloads; the...

    TR UAV/UCAV Programs | Anka - series | Kızılelma | TB - series

    It's time to develop a turbofan version of it as a strategic bomber, with a payload of 5-6 tonnes and a flying speed of 800-900 km/h. For this, 2x TEI TF 6000 or AI-322 engines are sufficient. As AWACS drones, it would also make sense; Turkey needs at least 2-3 more big AWACS Aircraft. 6-8...

    TR UAV/UCAV Programs | Anka - series | Kızılelma | TB - series

    That's flawed logic. Take a closer look at Turkey, despite its economic currency problems. Its industry and supply chains are interconnected with Europe, the Middle East/Far East, Africa, Russia, China and the USA. There are many Spanish and European banks, investors and industry corporations in...

    TR UAV/UCAV Programs | Anka - series | Kızılelma | TB - series

    The problem is that the moment a nuclear programme – whether official or unofficial – is launched, virtually all international pressure would be directed at us. The entire Middle East, including Israel, as well as Europe, the United States and Russia, would most likely oppose it, both...

    Live Conflict Israel-US vs Iran War (2026)

    This should be a lesson to every country. Iran has been completely discredited and dismantled, and it is only a matter of time before the next top targets are eliminated. The country has nothing to offer, and they have gambled too high in Syria, Iraq, Lebanon and the Red Sea. Turkey must...

    TR Turkiye's F-35 Project and Discussions

    Okay, but why do we need these F-35 aircraft strategically and militarily? There is no question that Greece and Israel need them, and the likelihood that they will use them against us to exert pressure is real. But what do we gain from this? Israel's QME is guaranteed by the USA, which means...

    TR Turkiye's F-35 Project and Discussions

    Assuming we get the F-35, I wonder who we can use it against? Greece? The US would probably shut down both countries' aircraft... before a conflict arose, and would even sell it as de-escalation. How clever and forward-thinking they are as Americans...😂 Against Israel? 😂😂😂😂😂😂 I don't need to...

    So there is nothing official, and we can assume that this is fake news. We have not made any statements in this regard, let alone held a meeting between the Turkish and Moroccan defence ministers, which is usually how strategic matters are clarified. Therefore, the truthfulness of this report is...
