you don't need such a budget to build a mid level drone that will be built at most 200 units. what a letdown of a company.

New T70 delivery to the air force. See the lack of "Purplehawk" color scheme, new low vis roundel being applied on it and the flir on the nose. Anyone can make up the model?

6 to 8 TFSA militants died when their ACV was hit by an rpg at close range in 2020. ACVs don't have any real armor. They are made out of aluminum, which burns like a volcano when ignited.

Poles have open credit lines, a strong economy and allies don't embargo more than half of the stuff they want to buy. We've asked for SAMP-T for more than a decade at this point. It's a big country, we will never have enough air defence assets to cover it and our commitments elsewhere. 11 is a...

These are massive systems, each battery costs somewhere between 40-200 million dollars. They can't be built over a month. Current projection is 11 "batteries" of Hisar and Siper to be delivered to MSB by 2029.

More than likely just a twin 35mm turret like Korkut's without AKR radar as it's part of a system. You can actually see the AKR right behind it on a different pedestal.

From İbrahim Sünnetçi's interview with Aselsan CEO Akyol: "We have finished the first of the payloads for the HavaSOJ, which will now be flown after its implementation at TAI."...

From İbrahim Sünnetçi's interview with Aselsan CEO Akyol: "We put GÖKDENİZ into inventory last year in the field of air defense. Now the 4th export contract has been signed, the 4th country. You can also see it here. We have now patented the members of the family in air defence as 'Skydome'...

From İbrahim Sünnetçi's interview with Aselsan CEO Akyol: "While flights continue with the MURAD AESA Nose Radar, production is also ongoing. We have already started their production. So there are only optimization issues from now on. And all the important functions have been implemented...

"Iraqi top court dissolves three political parties for being linked to PKK. The Judicial authority’s decree, upon the request of Iraq’s National Security Advisor Qassem al-Araji, ordered the dissolution of the Yazidi Democratic Freedom party, the Democratic al-Nidhal Front party, and the...

I wonder what could they be. New batch of Hisars would be the most expected I think. Maybe something bit more special? "DEARSAN Shipyard will produce 2 warships for the Turkish Navy. The cost of the two ships is estimated to be in the range of 300-400 million dollars."

From his visit to Egypt. "Turkish Foreign Minister Fidan’s warnings towards US and Europe today were very uncharacteristic. "The owners of Israel must now take Israel by the leash and stop it. The region is no longer in a position to tolerate further Israeli provocations.”

holy shit, can't believe it worked. RIP to martyrs.

Oruçreis already have a Phalanx at the back, in total 2 autonomous CIWS with the Gökdeniz. Original plan was to have 2 Phalanxes.

It's one of the Mekos. It shows where the starboard quarter Sea Zenith would be. This is a CGI Levent model added on a real photo.

Fidan is in Egypt today. His plane landed in Arish in the Sinai and will presumably visit Rafah first.

"Turkey blocks Gaza Flotilla from departing Istanbul, the organisers say" Thank god. This is the same group from the 2010 incident with IHH being a big part of it still.

Literally more subclasses than any other contemporary. Ufuk needs siblings :sneaky:

True true, all 7 are to be built private. Can't be the F-516 from Anadolu as well, first block was delivered in november 23, probably outline is just now becoming visible. Navy deserves and needs a tall ship to go along with Savarona, won't change my mind... Could probably employ something like...

Wasn't Khaibar launched in 2022? I remember seeing her much more "ready" than this. Bridge design also looks like Istif. But also true that 3 Istifs shouldn't be here as they are built by TAIS. Could it be the 5th Istif perchance :love: Isn't TCG Akar still in service? Maybe A581 to replace...
