I don't understand what you are trying to tell, be more clear.

Agree but some signals are there. Hurkus II is not for nothing being developed with composite body and navalized. And there you have Murat Özpala tweeting they are seriously trying to make the Hurkus take off from 200m with ski-jump

While I argued to myself Hurkus on LHD is absurd, things are slowly moving into that direction. First Murat Özpala's tweet, now Ibrahim Sünnetçi Hürkus II and Hürjet for the navy????

Sometimes I fail to find words for the stupidities in my country, will there be some who will call this "kader" too?

Even if the Hurkus 2 was made armed, than still I fail to see the plus of it on an LHD. Maybe the trainer could function as a trainer to train crews for the double engine Hurjet 2 (carrier capable, if ever such thing is to be build), anyway even that sounds absurd

Armenia goes from trench war to bunker war. We have to supply our Azeri brothers some bunker busters

Turn rate is almost of no importance, todays fighters work on see but do not be seen (stealth) and they shoot their missile from beyond visual range

Hurkus 2 could surprise us nicely if it had a Turkish turboprop.

There are no guarantees but both the GE F404 and GE F110 engines do not have property rights anymore (meaning any country who can could reverse engineer them at will). Likely hood that there will be no hinder in deliveries is high. So for the US it is not high sensible tech anymore to expect...

Signing a MOU does not really mean something, who knows something can happen and they can decide for urgent purchase. Tempest is to be ready when? 2040? Build the jet, proof it on the battlefield and it will sell like hot cake, no MOU can stop that

That's a dangerous assasment to make based on what you see. At IDEX you just see a mockup, the real version can differ (we know it from our own mockup's)

Who says we are selling critical technology? Do you have info that we do not? Please elaborate

Money Turkish drones made a good reference for Turkiye, it's good to take that positive wind and gain some inroads for our defense products

Just a hope, possibly on March 18 with the hangar rollout ceremonial of TFx

And if it is ugly, so what? Important is the usefulness ugly has her own beauty

They do, like those corvettes that UAE sold to Angola. Do you think those corvettes are UAE design? They got the knowhow and design with the Bayunah class, modified it a bit and are selling to Angola

Market penetration. Gulf states have even a younger defense industry than Turkiye, till a few years ago they could not produce much but are very eager like Turkiye to gather knowhow. In the past we could not deliver many things, those what we could they bought (like Otokar Arma). Now they go...

Both, Either you do not build in earthquake area at all which is difficult since all of Turkiye is almost earthquake zone. But you can never predict where the earth will rip apart, that part is just luck

A good constructed house / flat will survive even strong quakes unless of course it has the bad luck to be right on the fault line that rips open. There are 30m wide rips due in some areas, no matter how strong the building is there no any building will survive

Most of the collapsed buildings did not have a sufficient foundation. Here we see again neglect, no control. They build 5-6 store apartments' with no foundation. Mostly you see two types of collapsed buildings either buildings that collapse in one piece: no foundation or buildings that...
