Meaning not much? 1bn is basically peanuts. If anything this shows they still don't see it.

"Possible Start Date for the Construction of MUGEM is 2029" "The National Aircraft Carrier Project (MUGEM) started this year with the Preliminary and Contract Design Directive given by the Turkish Naval Forces Command to the Design Project Office Directorate within the Naval Technical Command...

I don't think this ramp is fit for amphibious ops, too high, unsure though. Very interesting solution however, I agree.

Water tank on the FMTV and a fuel tanker. They are setting up a new small base wherever that convoy is headed.

Derya is a beast, one of the largest in the NATO. Portuguese Navy is much smaller and don't have flattops to support. STM's similar PNS Moawin is 17k, while Yzb Güngör Durmuş Class ships come at 9k. Checking the specsheets, Durmuş Class carries a similar load of diesel and JP-5 to the Portuguese...

And it's confirmed. 2 AORs will be built for Portuguese Navy. First high tonnage naval vessel export to a EU and NATO country. Both ships will be built by a private shipyard in Turkey, under STM. Ships will have 137 meter length at 11000 tonnes, capable for sailing for up to 90 days without...

Spanish have been talking about industrial cooperation for a while. If a sale happens, this can be as low as some Spanish subsystems in the Spanish version(other than what they already have) to as high as a joint production of the aircraft under a system where TAI still holds the IP. Hürjet's...

"Gökhan Uçar, Vice President of SSB: We are currently discussing a very big project with Spain. They want to participate in a very big project of ours. Serbia also wants to participate in a very big project of ours. The British want to work with us a lot." These don't mean anything by...

Doubt it for now.

Per MoD Güler's latest words last week, 2 RAF Typhoons will visit Turkey on Dec 18, after joining a joint exercise in Qatar and land directly at Mürted/Akıncı. https://tolgaozbek.com/savunma/iki-eurofighter-18-aralikta-ankaraya-geliyor/ Reading into this a bit more, I'm puzzled and this visit...

A deal was also signed by Anadolu with an "unnamed African country" to supply to 2 LCTs in 2 years in 2023. https://www.defenceturk.net/anadolu-tersanesi-afrika-ulkesiyle-ihracat-anlasmasi-imzaladi

Meanwhile, second Istif class frigate TCG İzmir's construction continues. And I believe one of the new LCT's can be seen on the right. Unsure if it's for export or DzKK use.

I hadn't noticed that, see Istanbul's light ASM load. Presumably only 8 in a 4x2 configuration instead of 4x4. And judging by the safety circle/rectangle around the gun on Hisar, are we sure if the gun make a full 360 degree traverse when on standby position and not hit the emplacement behind...

Göker uses a single MKE GDF-003(single version of Korkut basically), so fire rate should be similar to that, 550-600 RPM. Unsure if Korhan comes with MKE's 35mm revolver gun or not so can't comment. Takes less space, but I fear even with ATOM its fire rate is too slow for quick bursts. Makes...

New lighter SPAAG design from Aselsan? New 3D Kalkan 050-G 4 faces S band search radar, standard Akrep 100-G fire control radar, single 35mm gun(MKE's revolver type?), Vshorad missiles on the sides, and a jammer on a telescopic mast. "Yerli milli" Skyranger, looks like.

You got a quote for that claim or are we just spitballing here?

Most up to date infographic on the Cenk family of radars. Cenk-300N is the new name for Arda for FACs. 500-N is the x band multi function radar, 600-N is the s band long range search radar, while the 700-N is the IFF radar. These three make up the Çafrad suite for the TF2000. - And more...

Possibly not, but there's a high change Kaan will fly opposite other 5th gen fighters. It has to go toe to toe with them. It being ours and local does not mean much when it has to win both for us and for export users even in its block 10-20 variant.

Yet they did, repeatedly in both Idlib and Aleppo.

Well, that was sooner than expected. Trump is on his way to wreak havoc on Iran and he will ask us to take a side this time with no ifs and buts I fear.
