SpaceX’s frequency of launches guarantees price competitiveness. Reusable boosters is a bonus. In September of this year they launched 10 rockets, last month it was 9. With universal busses, small universities with small grants can now take up a Starlink mission rideshare for their cubes.

Turns out still to be named Pars V and X moniker is just a placeholder until the official launch.
Much bigger turret ring also points out to bigger turrets down the line. Pars V is a Boxer equivalent in size and mission profile. We might see plenty of interesting stuff in near future.
Latest iteration of Pars is finally revealed. Dubbed Pars X, surprisingly.
What’s the Pars IV next to it is though, i wonder. Never seen that before.

I don’t fully buy these evaluation scores and we don’t have a table for what’s what so too early to come to conclusions. K808 being so lower than Lazar is interesting to say the least but Pandur pricing makes sense.

Beringer makes wheel assemblies and more importantly brake systems for light vehicles like aircraft and motorbikes. Baylar also uses(or used to use) them.
Aside from this being too early to say anything, an in production diesel engine like PD-170 failing in flight doesn’t mean much for a...
4 drones lost in last six months. While not losing pilots is good, this still a loss of at least 50 million dollars in 2 Ankas, an Aksungur and a TB2. Hope it’s not a sign of something.
He’d have a very tough time. I am yet to see one single destroyed or even disabled armored vehicle. If they were penetrated, no aftermath footage came out.
Also haven’t seen any documentation of dead Israeli bodies inside Gaza. Still very foggy.
Let’s wait a bit before jumping into this bandwagon. Current Turkish policy re Palestine seems to be Palestinians staying in Palestine. Looks like US wants some percentage of Gazans to be transferred to countries in the region and is offering free credit to sweeten the deal. However nothing yet...

This is a religion of close to 2 billion people with hundreds of different procedures around the world. This is neither explicitly banned nor is it the strangest one I’ve seen over the years. There are thousands of muslim Israeli soldiers, we know this. This being a bs propaganda photo doesn’t...
Eh, Greeks thought 90 Scalps they had would be more than enough for a crippling blow to Turkey for over 20 years. ALCMs are are highly advanced, highly capable and very expensive missiles and presumably with lower than average shelf life. If a big purchase is made, that would mean we are on war...
