I'd like to see something official. Many Czech firms, first of which CSG did undertake many contracts as subcontractors, even as main contractors for Roketsan. It's possible that this was a reexport or something like that.

This week's weekly presser by MSB was done at Çiğli, where Hürkuş were supposedly sent last year. No mention of it in the presser and they instead showed a KT-1 as a backdrop. Failure of a program honestly...

Syria hasn't been a threat since 80s. The idea that YPG was a vice against Baath Syria is absurd; it never was.

This have layers. Re US; buying an aircraft from US needs congressional approval; so acceptance of the near entirety of American political system. An aircraft with ITAR components, so an aircraft that's under American export restrictions require US State Dept approval, so an acceptance of the...

It's very much possible that he's talking re simulations they made. Suffice to say they've made thousands of simulations to date. TF35K is not yet lit.

Commando training for 3rd batch Malian and Nigerien troops.

Not at all. KF-21 have tens of subsystems sourced from US and other countries. A Turkish user got triggered and made a massive list last year on twitter. I'm sure many of this will be nationalized in time, but many others simply won't be as that requires gutting the aircraft and making a new...

That should be a trailing cone for further testing.

Finally!

This is what some Brit pundits have been saying today indeed, but British procurement and development issues are pretty much endemic. Would you be surprised? I wouldn't. But we need to say, this is not UK stopping development or anything like that; it's them confirming they are not expecting...

One idea could be that this is like a workaround FMS. These vehicles are delivered to TSK and then will be delivered to partner nations in Africa etc. Aside from the very non idea camo, as stated Hızır is not a TSK standard vehicle.

Exactly this; noone intelligent follows mario nawfal of all people. there are not "real" people.

Shitty camo schemes, third rate vehicle. Previous Hızır deliveries were made to border units with EU funds; these ones instead are armed and lack cameras. Wonder what are they for.

Re Hürjet, possible future interest of Japan to replace their aging T-4s. Looks like TAI also offered Hürkuş back in 2024. Japan had selected the T-6 Texan instead. A dark horse to succeed the JASDF T-4? What is this "supersonic" trainer aircraft that could break the South Korean dominance...

See the post from last year:

There were some recent talks about Omanese EFs being almost ready to be delivered. About that.. 🤭 "Trump says the US will "blow up" Oman if it doesn't behave."

Reported overflights, dogfights after 2 years, shows of force and Güler's recent bayram message from a barracks in Edirne. Seems region is going hot again. https://www.ekathimerini.com/politics/foreign-policy/1304807/aegean-tension-as-turkish-warplanes-violate-greek-airspace/

Doesn't really track tbh. Syria is upgrading from Toyotas and as you said regional neighbours are helping with financing because we need a stable Syria, they are dealing with ISIS cells everyday. M113s and ACVs are ancient, but they are still active vehicles in active use. And the 8x8s and...

After Amazon and Cobra II, Syria also started operating Nurol NMS, and with 7.62 Sarp. Syria is now operating armored vehicles from all three major Turkish 4x4 builders. Makes sense as these firms are one of the best in delivering in time. We'll probably see a FNSS venture into the country in...

Huh, MMT-76 in Georgian service.
