They still have their veto. Unless they revert their veto, Turkey is not joining the SAFE scheme.

Future is here and Baykar leads the way. Great way to start a sunday. Yes!

Doubt it. Retrofit has been going on for the last 2 years, with first 8 aircraft already being retrofitted over the time. We haven't seen any DIRCM units on any of the aircraft. And whose DIRCM would we use anyway? Yıldırım is not ready. Made a check on twitter, saw this chain. What SOC 3...

58 customer satellites in one photo. Wonder which one is supposed to be Fergani's tug.

They could just not spend millions on donations to US politicians to boot Turkey out of JSF; but they did that. There's nothing suspicious about anything. Israel worked for more than 5 years actively to make sure Turkey didn't get F-35s and it is still working actively to keep the laws that...

Our own Constellation program 🤭

We could actually. I do not subscribe to this viewpoint. We have facts from recent history. We have a country that refused to sell us aircraft with lobbying from regional rivals like Israel, UAE and Greece. F-35 is this silver bullet that is either a huge gamechanger or it's basically a poison...

I think they want to conquer Çanakkale for the new papal state.

Literally everyone that can get them on earth wants F-35s. It's simply the best fighter aircraft ever built, its capabilities are unparalleled. That's not how that works. Fighter aircraft unlike pagers are not COTS items you buy from Hungary based Mossad shell companies. That's on Iran to be...

Nope, no DIRCM on them. - By its nature it shouldn't be that big of an upgrade; it's not even called as such, but wish we had some info. Maybe a block increase, maybe software; just nothing.

Still don't know what that retrofit entails.

Looks like Barbaros MLU finally started for the second ship already. Salihreis is the lucky one.

But there's nothing to indicate any loss of power from the aircraft. I kind of agree with general's statement: "Today's HAL Tejas Mk1A crash in Dubai. Sadly, the pilot lost his life. RIP. It's a situation similar to the crash in Poland. Meanwhile, our F-4 pilots narrowly escaped disaster in...

Aircraft can leak oil, I vividly remember the US aggressor F-18s leaking oil on the ramp like drunkards. Some say that was not oil but water instead, also possible. Regardless, it's an active duty aircraft of the air force without known issues. Tejas is many things, but it doesn't just lock up...

Looks to be pilot; even if aircraft gave in midway through, too low. RIP.

Back to Erdoğan statement from 2023: 2028 for KE with TF6K makes sense.

All other f-35s by their nature are "downgraded" F-35s compared to Israeli F-35Is.

HISTORIC TRIAL FOR BAYRAKTAR KIZILELMA: LOCKED ONTO AN F-16, SCORED A DIRECT HIT IN SIMULATED FIRE! Türkiye’s first unmanned fighter aircraft, Bayraktar KIZILELMA, has carried out yet another historic test in the sky. In the test conducted with the participation of two F-16 fighter jets of the...

Indeed, Akrep-1000G is multifunction radar capable of undertaking search duties as well: "AKREP 1000-G is a radar system developed with Active Electronically Scanned Array (AESA) architecture, capable of both rotating and stationary operation, performing search and precision tracking...

Yeah you're right i think. Only İzmir will probably be delivered within the timeline. They weren't saying all ships would be delivered together but back to back within few months of each other, still, delayed.
