    Iyi party forced a postponement on the Swedish NATO ascension. Today, at the meeting of the Foreign Affairs Commission of the Turkish Grand National Assembly where the proposal on Sweden's membership was discussed, we, as IYI Party commission members, announced that we would withdraw the...

    Interesting language on the piece. This would be the first time it came out that Turkey had an official request of EF-2000s.

    Finally a presumably disabled tank, I'll take it. Second is an M60T from Syria :( Those Namers are battered but I don't think they're disabled. I think Israelis now control the area.

    TR Military Operations in Northern Iraq

    Complicated but gist of it is that Iraqis, KRG and we left them to fend for themselves against ISIS. PKK and US basically worked together for a time there. Turns out, huge mistake on our part.

    There are other birds in the sky other than Greek F-35s. Comparatively low cost manned platforms will be here for years to come.

    TR HÜRJET-Advanced Jet Trainer/ Light attack aircraft

    With 4 WVR missiles and 8 SDBs Hürjet too could be a potent light fighter. Tech and munitions are already available.

    This could be an interesting partnership. Per Dzkk needs, we are currently set to have 8 P72s and and 6 P235s in MPA role. As well as about 25 UCAVs. Meltem 3 program was downsized about 10 years ago to include 2 GP variants so there should be 8 total instead of 10. Both aircraft are also set to...

    30 years on and only solution our state can come up with is that Hezbollah can be the antithesis of PKK in Turkish Kurds. This will fail badly, like before. Generations will be lost to this nonsense.

    TSK more than likely have some ideas of what happened. What will they publicly share is another question.

    Live Conflict Israel-Palestine War|Regional Escalations

    None look destroyed tbh. And chasing it, it looks like photo was shared by Israelis themselves. It’s so weird, this. There is still not one destroyed or heavily damaged Israeli tank captured on camera. It’s absurd to think there are none damaged and we know there are tankers dead. But no...

    That oil is sold to many countries. Iraqi parliament illegalized business with Israeli companies last year, effectively banning the trade.

    Same was said about the possible T26 transfer and everyone first thought it was just bad journalism. Turns out, the offer was pretty real in itself. people should learn to expect the unexpected when it comes to Turkey i think. Let’s wait few days to see anything real comes up.

    TR UAV/UCAV Programs | Anka - series | Kızılelma | TB - series

    Point of the video was clearly to show the proximity fuze, not warhead. Issue with this is that they are pure war systems. They are nothing special, you just put an RPG round on a drone and call it a day. That’s no way to run a business and make a profit if there is no war around.

    TR Missile & Smart Munition Programs

    You are right in light infantry brigades. They have their own atgm squads as part of the platoon. But if you look at Stryker BCTs and their 3 rifle companies each, each 3 rifle squad in one Stryker each have a single Javelin with few reloads. That’s 9 squads with 9 Javelins per company, which...

    TR Missile & Smart Munition Programs

    LAW is light, and this is a huge advantage for commando roles. RPG have one big advantage over it. At least 10 types of warheads for many roles. Both however have abysmal track record against modern tanks. Turkish infantry is greatly lacking in single troop(tek er) anti tank capability. RPG...
