Improved version = Designed as a drone mothership from the start. TCG Anadolu is a LHD. BTW military also wants to power military bases and forward operating bases with SMRs in the (distant) future.

It is planned after Milden. Milden is slowly heading to the prototype production phase. SSBN really depends on SMR. Turkiye recently announced grants for scientific projects and studies for nuclear reactors. We have a long way ahead at least 10 years to see a prototype reactor. BTW those...

Conceptual studies are underway for a nuclear propulsion submarine. According to early conceptual studies, a civilian based SMR will power the sub. Turkiye wants to acquire/develop SMR tech for civilian and military purposes.

It should be pretty clear why. You can find rotax anywhere in the world. Some customers might opt for cheaper COTS rotax engine.

No. Not that I know of. Anyway, Tayfun is a continuation of Bora. It will take years until the Tayfun family will be completed. I also expect a Tayfun-ER with a 1000km range with a reduced warhead.

Pakistan has successfully conducted a flight test of Ababeel Weapon System -Specs - MIRV-based MR BM Range: 2200Km TEL, Solidfuel Warhead: 3-8 MIRVs (3RV of 500kg, 5RV of 300kg, 8RV of 185kg) Total Payload:1500kg

Selçuk Bayraktar is not a prophet and not every move he makes is a correct one. It is wrong to visit a US carrier while the US is an open ally of PKK and on top of that, he was posing like a clown to the cameras. He should have rejected the invitation with dignity. If he wants to be a political...

Crater doesn't tell the whole story. JDAM has airburst mode that creates no crater in the impact zone.

If you think this warhead can level a hospital I have a bridge to sell. Aprox. half of that warhead is not even explosive. Wiki says its warhead weighs 175kg but only 90 kg of it is explosive. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fajr-5 The total weight of Mk84 is ~2000lbs only half of it is...

TPAO will drill 2 exploration wells on land near Antalya/Kumluca and Antalya/Demre. Those wells are related to the current ongoing offshore drill. It is done to see whether geological formations that show promise for hydrocarbons continue on land.

Those small intercepted artillery rockets don't carry enough explosives to destroy a hospital. This was probably the job of BLU-109 bunker-buster warhead. IDF is talking about tunnels under the hospital.

Yes, there should have been secondary explosions. I have zero doubts that this is an IDF attack. Hamas has nothing that has enough destructive force to cause damage at this scale. This is probably done by a munition with an enhanced explosive warhead filling like PBXN. I doubt Hamas has any...

It is an Israeli air strike Hamas doesn't have any weapons that can cause damage at this scale to a hospital.

I expect 1/3 of this to be a purchasing budget. It seems like big contracts are on the way. This looks like a war budget. Our purchase budget>Greek complete defense budget. From this point on, we will see the difference the national defense industry makes.

It won't work. China mostly nationalized chip production including national lithography machines. The first Chinese DUV machines have been producing chips for some time(trial procution), more will be delivered in 2024. China successfully made its own 7nm chips. Chinese national EUV lithography...

Israel demolished over a thousand buildings with airstrikes so far.
