Arpan is the project to put 40 Panther towed howitzers on a 8x8 chassis. For now, it's only for 40 vehicles, because that's how many Panthers we have.
There were 2 different wheeled 155mm designs from MKE and Aselsan. Yavuz and Asya. Asya probably didn't move forward with development as we...
"We have signed a Memorandum of Understanding with BAE Systems to collaborate in the field of unmanned aerial systems and related technologies.
Within the scope of this collaboration, we aim to evaluate joint opportunities in the field of future unmanned systems and create new areas of...
No details yet, but should be interesting.
"After Leonardo and Baykar tie-up earlier this year, BAE's FalconWorks and TAI have announced a "strategic alliance" to "explore common opportunities" on uncrewed air systems. Interesting move that opens up some interesting possibilities."
40 odd Panter towed howitzers are being turned into self propelled howitzers with new FCS, now called "Integrated Panter". Too small a number and about 5 years late.

"Is there now a 'Trump plan' for Cyprus? 'The AKP always negotiates for Cyprus'"
It was claimed that Trump would offer Ankara "a package that the UN has been unable to offer for years" in exchange for the withdrawal of Turkish troops from Cyprus. Retired diplomat Solakoğlu approached the claim...
That would be be great, but it's more like ADSB data to be wrong as it usually can be. Let's wait for actual telemetry from Baykar before getting excited. Mach 0.9 is high transonic, It'd be a great achievement for the airframe's sturdiness.
Word reserve is carrying a lot of this post. M48s and M60s are still very much prevalent in active units in both 2nd Army and Aegean Army. Still plenty of mixed units with M60A3s in Syria as well.
I don't think it's realistic for the entirety of some 330 Leopard 2s to be modernized under TİYK...
Hah, after seeing above post i just went to his twitter to see what he actually said before seeing this. I love twitter. People forget that we are in such a small niche.
That's because of American laws and their transparency and accountability requirements. No other country gives out such detailed information on weapons sales.
