Thanks but still doesn't make sense. Baykar's TB2 sales alone in 2023 were greater than 1.6bn

What do they consider as "arms". Their number is vastly different that official statistics by the individual countries.

Turkey will supply 2 Assault Boats to Qatar.

Do you suspect the test was conducted as a free fall bomb?

Would you be able to see if it is a Kale engine if they had shown the ignition? If not, what is the point of your comment?

Obviously MX-15D is better than CATS. However, looking at Albania and their needs, CATS could have been viable if the price was attractive enough. It is important to get these smaller customers onboarded completely on the Turkish eco-system. no need to give wealth away for free to the canadians.

Damn. Albania is one of those customer Turkiye could have pursuaded to go with CATS

3x TB3 delivered to Albania. 3 more to be delivered soon. Delivered with CATS?

Interesting they went completely dark with KE's test campaign

He obviously went full retard. His army is nearly obliterated, his allies has abandoned him and Russia is advancing on all fronts.

Any idea how many prototypes have flown so far/how many will be built?

This claims that the domestic engine will power the deliveries of 2028(?)

Very interesting. According to this, TAI will start the production of KAAN in 2025 and deliver 20 units by the end of 2028? This effectively means that the first units will be delivered in late 2026?

German dogs. they can't even keep their current military running.

The JF-17 Block 3 is a very decent platform. If upgraded with Turkish avionics it can become even more lethal. PAF JF-17s are already using Aselsan's targeting pod. It s a perfect solution until Hurjet and KAAN are ready for export.

JF-17 Block 3 definitely makes sense for Azerbaijan. However, source is dubious - has made bs claims in the past.

There is no logic in developing a manned platform out of an unmanned platform. Within the next few years, AI will completely eliminate the need for a pilot. For KE, a pilot would be a limitation to perform aggressive maneuvers. That being said, there will be a period were manned and unmanned...

The beauty of domestic production and domestic supply chains is that producing and operating military equipment (incl. KAAN) is technically free. Turkiye is just required to take money from its right pocket and put it in the left pocket.

The post is speculative and most likely not true.
