Then this must be something else and not PKK specific re how they view things. Maybe a new designation.

Looks like an M48 Patton with original 90mm gun.

Totally. For one, let's not talk tout selling Kaan to Pakistan before the damn thing is even flying. None of this is yet really clear tbh. No matter what is the outcome, TEI will be a big part of the development of the engine. Whether it's by itself or via TRMotor with Kale, which TEI now owns...

Created a real political crisis out of those marbles. This has been brewing for years. British point on this is clear, they don't let go of anything. Greeks are right on this. Parthenon marbles should return. This is actually one of few venues where Turkey and Greece both see eye to eye. Brits...

I was just coming here to post this too. Interesting layout on Milgem+. Bow mounted Levent? This indeed looks like an enlarged corvette or export. Taken by Xavier Vavasseur.

NLAW's top attack mode is different than Javelin. It's fired near the enemy vehicle, flies over it and detonates with a proximity sensor. It can also be used with a regular fuse for direct attack. Basically:

Prediction line of sight or PLOS NLAW uses falls somewhere in between tbh. It's not unguided, but it is also fire forget, you can't add deviations after fired like you can with SACLOS guidance. It's cheap too, 1/5th price of Javelin.

Only in Turkey you would see 2 local replacements for such a niche product. Good luck to both companies.

Not a possibility. 18 launchers with 118 missiles are to be delivered. https://defencesecurityasia.com/en/karaok-roketsan-missile-malaysia/

Altınay's ASIST replacement is dubbed the Kuşkapanı/Birdtrap. I like it. Its acceptance tests were completed aboard TCG Istanbul.

Akbaba also mentions Karaok sale to Poland being already signed. Haven't seen anything regarding this so just keeping it as a possibility for now.

Not sure. Serial production was to start already but those guys aren't army guys so doubt these are acceptance tests. We also don't know when was this shot, but Karaok is set to enter service in 2024.

Sunday candy. Karaok test, 3 in 1. Ohhh

I was thinking about researching about this for some time. Geopolitics and force posture of Bangladesh. Will take a look hopefully tomorrow.

Nigeria and Turkey to sign billion-dollar defense industry agreement. No info on specifics for now.

This is not a one off incident. There is a reason why Turkey was put in the grey list by FATF for money laundering with few African states, Bulgaria, Syria, Vietnam and UAE. Multiple international narcoterrorists made Turkey their homes to escape from Interpol for nearly a decade. After the...

1326 is one of two of UAE's ELINT/SIGINT platforms dubbed Project Dolphin. They are to be a class of two G6000s. they were being converted by UK based Marshall Aerospace. 1326 in 2019 before delivery...

YNZMA vehicles will have the 35mm Korhan turret both for tracked and wheeled AFVs.

2400+ vehicles to be procured. 2200 ACVs to be replaced, 650 of them AFV variants. It'll take more than a decade to complete this program lol. These modded ones would probably be donated to allies or sold on the cheap later on.

That's too much hassle and would mean a KC135 with the basket adapter cannot refuel F-16's or E7s in flight. Adapter works for singular missions but not at bulk. Thing is, The underwing pods used for this role are made by Cobham. If we place this order, they would sell us a nice number of pods...
