Doubt it. Ground effect vehicles are nothing new. You can make one at home yourself as well. No need to take an existing design and miniaturize it.

Probably, but we don't have the data to support that at hand. That's not necessarily a bad thing for the program. More hulls, more production, longer lifecycle for the program. More money as well of course.

It's possible to expect changes to the production model or even future prototypes but we do not yet know what will TF35000's dimensions be.

To return back to the topic. Claimed 500 turbojet engines per yer figure is a pretty nice. We'll need double that in the next few years for the army and the exports.

Well that went nowhere. They are happy with their KCK allies. What are we going to do about it? "Russia has suspended mediation in rapprochement talks between Türkiye and the Syrian regime."

Meanwhile in France. A Seaquest-S USV aboard a FREMM frigate during trials this week. Greece have also shown an interest to Seaquest USVs in recent months.

Indeed, later quotes I've seen only mention a long range radar, probably EIRS or TEIRS.

That remains to be seen.

For a split second I thought you were talking about the YN-ZMA deal... - This is interesting to me in few ways. We know BAE was always hands off with FNSS. They just acquired FMC years ago and didn't really touch FNSS in the last 2 decades. I don't remember a single product FNSS offered that was...

Siper deployed to İzmit? "ASELSAN General Manager Akyol: We positioned our long-range air defense system in Gulf of İzmit"

Spain's ambassador to Turkey visited TAI today and sat on the Hürjet prototype. That SASF livery Hürjet model looks beautiful even if the nationalist cross is a bit large compared to other Spanish aircraft.

First operational deployment of Air force T70, "Violethawk".

I'm on and off following the two guys on the right on the thumbnail for the last few years and Burak Özpek would literally fight you for calling him a KK supporter.

We cooperate with US, Russia and Iran too. We already do. And just like others, they are a threat too. But unlike US that can tank our economy, Russia that can cut our gas or Iran that can squirm us in Iraq, HTS threat by its nature is more ideological. They can destabilize the region further...

That have been the talk for the last week. Not clear if it will happen or sides agreed to it tho. It's getting tiresome to follow the tidbits.

West supports HTS as well. How do you think they managed to stay in their corner of Syria while ISIS was being bombed to oblivion? How did US did multiple anti ISIS ops without touching HTS? They cooperate. Of course it is. It's a fundamentalist holdout with nowhere to go with millions of...

Because it's Al Qaeda lite near our border whose leader and organization stayed alive until now because unlike their brethren they forewent their global jihad initiatives and adopted a more inward looking stance. It's still a bed of fundamentalism that will fester with millions of people living...

"On the other hand, the Turkish Air Force will also gain ramjet-propelled METEOR air-to-air missile capability with the Eurofighter Typhoon Aircraft. Good news is expected to come in a few days regarding the Eurofighter Typoon procurement. If the source code supply required for the integration...

"The first firing tests of the ramjet-propelled long-range air-to-air missile GÖKHAN, which is under development under the Prime Contractor TÜBİTAK SAGE, are expected to be carried out in 2025. However, in order to see the real performance of GÖKHAN, the MURAD AESA Nose Radar with long detection...
