    In the end, much much larger. Many Turkish projects will be Europeanized. For today, we don't have any info, these are all MoUs.

    Not at all, these are all numbered from the day they start their production. This particular bird with the number this and that was slated to enter JnGK inventory at least 2 years ago. T70 deliveries will continue for some time, probably 4-8 more are to be delivered. Problem is more not entering...

    Adding on this, it will be real, real hard to ascertain real stuff from fake and/or misleading stuff. It's real scary trying to comb through Indian and Pakistani bot farms and clueless idiots to fact check. We ask all users to work their common sense when posting. This is not twitter, not...

    Not just "instrumentalizating" it, there's so much more to do. Actually these are still just the baby steps on our way to make it a product. Just below that Anmdt spoke about those as well in the past months.

    Or not. 3 more take off and landings from PT-4 and 2 takeoffs where both birds landed back in Keşan, bringing the total to 21 landings and 23 takeoffs over 5 days. This time I believe this rounds of tests are now concluded after both aircraft went back to their home base.

    That looks like an Oscar class SSGN, it's about 4 times heavier and have twice the length compared to the planned MilDen, so Milden definitely won't have two sets of tubes on the sides of the sail, lacking a double hull. As it will be shorter in length, placing them on an angle is a misuse of space.

    Then even dropped their used external tanks over Turkey on the way back, it was a political crisis at the time. "Immediately following the attack, Israeli Prime Minister Ehud Olmert called Turkish Prime Minister Recep Tayyip Erdoğan, explained the situation, and asked him to relay a message to...

    TB3 doesn't need an EOTS like TOYGUN. EOTS is for fast moving aircraft as it's really hard to turn a protruding ball while going 600kmh. TB3 don't have that problem so AF-500 is enough. Anka-3 possibly wouldn't also need it if it wasn't for the low visibility requirements.

    Brings the total over 4 days to 17, including the first night time landing. With the closing words of Selçuk, makes me think this round of tests are concluded and Anadolu will be going to Aksaz.

    I have no doubt in my mind that all the claims of police overuse of force and torture are founded and true, if this is what they do when cameras are rolling. I believe we were talking about "decency" earlier today.

    We'll still only have VTOL UAVs unless ship goes 60kmh in reverse. For any anti pirate or security missions you have a helicopter onboard and VTOL UAVs with 6 hour endurance and 70km comms range, which means about 250km range if you can control it from the helicopter. More than enough for any...

    Ship speed doesn't matter, wind speed, more importantly wind speed under the wings matter. Ship superstructure blocking it will make the wind speed much slower. What's wrong with VTOL drones?

    Maybe, if the ship is going in reverse. -

    We didn't talk about it much, but Anadolu was in the shipyard for the last 2-3 months and drydocked for about a month. I believe this was her first drydock since she was launched in 2019?

    By Baykar posts of the last 3 days, after Anadolu's long visit to the shipyard was complete and she sailed again, in the last 3 days TB3 made at least 13 takeoffs from and landings to Anadolu.

    Some nice high AOA maneuvers at 10 seconds mark but surprisingly still no footage of the supersonic flight. It shouldn't be that hard... A Samsung phone in an F-16D chase plane would be more than enough...
