This is the issue. Most navies when purchasing new platforms will seek to have weapon and sensor commonality with their existing platforms. This gives a significant unfair competitive advantage to countries which have been in the business for a long time. Turkiye needs to somehow break the...

Iran cannot afford a major conflict with Afghanistan. They now that if they commit significant resources to the Afghan border, Israel will have a golden opportunity to strike them. Afghanistan knows this as well, thus, the government is being very aggressive with the Iranians.

Anka 3 has still not flown. Seems it’s facing lots of issues, unfortunately.

Most likely no. They said they would try to acquire some earlier this year but I think we have a hard time finding a seller. Potentially they acquired some MANPADS from the Ukrainian black market. However nothing sufficient or capable enough to deal with the drone threat

People are speculating the country to be Hungary.

Another NATO member purchased TB2 from Baykar.

I am not a supporter of monarchy either. You are right, Afghanistan experienced the most stability during monarchs. However, the drawback of a monarchy is that the succession is fixed and risk of coups. I much prefer a 1 party system, as we de facto have with the Taliban. Risk of coup and...

No, I do not support the overthrowing of the Taliban. Let me tell you why. As many members (@Tabmachine etc.) have pointed out, Afghanistan has experimented with all possible sorts of ideologies for the past 100 years. All ended in disaster and with the leader fleeing the country or being...

They made blunder after blunder. throwing away a 15% lead. I started out the election backing CHP against AKP, given the economy. However, the more I heard them and their policies the more I got convinced that Turkiye has no alternative to AKP. CHP is simply not fit to rule the country.

Humiliation of iran if true.

Clear evidence that Anka was manipulating the numbers. It was very close (50/50) till 90% counted. Now suddenly 92% counted and Erdogan is 51.5% :ROFLMAO:

I think Turkiye is facing some tough years, however, the future is looking bright. The country is going through rapid industrialization with advanced technologies (championed by the defence and tech industries). Turkiye is taking a step up in the value chain creating global brands with national...

Exactly, iranians haven't actually done anything for almost 1.5 millennia. It been Turks doing the work for them - now they are just trying to change their history by claiming them to be Persians.

Please keep your bs for yourself. you say "thousand of years" while showing empires that actually controlled Afghanistan for a few decades. Afghan empires also controlled Iran, what is your point? Go back to getting your ass kicked in Ukraine.

I just wrote that it makes logically sense for RTE to start with a large lead as rural polling stations are counted faster than in the cities. In any election around the world, the most popular party/person in the rural areas starts with a large lead which is then eroded as the numbers from...

Could you highlight the difference. I have no idea what to look for. Thanks!

I am not certain about CIA's involvement. The news of a meeting is only being spread by Tajik separatist accounts which usually have no insider information. They claim all sort of things. That being said, a conflict with Iran will present an opportunity for CIA/Mossad/Azerbaijan/Turkiye. I...

They reached the same conclusion after claiming that KK was ahead the entire evening. No way your numbers are so different from reality if you're not trying to manipulate. AA's numbers are more logical with a large RTE lead in the beginning (as rural counting is faster than cities).

Anka was caught as a liar in the first round. Would rather trust AA's number.

These iranian man... Have you ever seen a country's soldiers cry like women during an armed clash because they lost a friend? There is also another video of an iranian shot in the ass at a hospital screaming like a woman. What's up with these guys?
