It will be the first ever flying wing to reach mach 1. Or, it won’t have a flying wing design.

Retired ships are not going back into service unless we become Iraq in 1991 in the next year. 2 Ay class boats that didn’t receive any modernization were retired in the last few years and are just waiting to be scrapped.

Argentina is looking to buy a second hand submarine from a European country. Could be Swedish, Greek, Spanish or even our old Atılays. Being a past Type 209 user, Poseidon or Atılays would have a stronger position. Wonder if Aselsan’s foray into Argentina also includes a refurbished and...

That was a pretty good show, i think i left it after season 4 tho. Gotta restart sometime.

T70 is not “özgün” tho. And I’m thinking all the signings should be already done for that program.

My thinking is that no other single TAI helicopter project is in such a state to require 50 million dollars worth of avionics anytime soon but the T625 which should now be completing its tests with gendarme and getting ready for serial production.

Finally an update on T625 production. Wonder what is the project length for these deliveries. “ASELSAN received an order with a total value of 48,760,000 USD from TAI-Turkish Aerospace Industries for the supply of avionic equipment within the scope of the Unique Helicopter Project.“

Aselsan is many things and you probably have a point in utilization but Aselsan is not a private company. It mainly does what SSB tells them to do. Aselsan does everything from gun optics to long range radars and everything else in between. It’s a company like none other and it’s more akin to...

They most certainly are not. Basically, yes.

Turns out, baklava has its limits…

Finally signed after all those months. LMS Batch 2 calls for 3+5 ships. Per Malaysian sources, all three ships will be built in Turkey by STM. Per STM’s model and the naval news piece by Özberk, vessels willcome with Korean K-SAM VLS and Korean AA missiles and with Cenk-S.

Might be a new name to an existing product. Everyone’s asking the same question.

How are we sure the STA deliveries are complete? This tweet just copy pastes MSB’s weekly briefing. I do agree that deliveries are going perfectly and most of the 300+ vehicles are delivered, but I don’t think the program is yet complete.

Every component of the İhtar system can be carried on S70.

I’m pretty sure now that we are also selling Tolun to Saudi and even Egypt.

Don’t even need kinetic countermeasures. FOBs are numbered, say 100 at most. We already have dazzler and radar combinations that would make quick work of any camera in the sky. They’re just not deployed in sufficient numbers. Today it was a camera, tomorrow it will be a mortar round.

Missed the livestream but watched Scott’s breakdown now. That was as exciting as an actual movie. What an awesome achievement. Give a house to the person who designed the hinges on those flaps.

Maybe I misremember but isn’t this the third iteration of these? Real time testing, love it.

SF-260 is a basic trainer, while Hürkuş can be considered an advanced trainer and can also be employed on Lead in Fighter Training(LIFT). Hürkuş is closer to an F-16 than SF-260.

Erdogan is one of the names that make up “Turkey”. And no, he didn’t, never in that tone.
