    TR Air Defence Programs

    We of course could. But air defence is very expensive. As we literally have no idea how much the components cost each, we couldn't assume a unit price for Gürz. I'd think each of those Aselsan AESA radars come at least 1-3 million per unit. This will be an expensive piece of equipment. If the...

    4 AESA radars, a tracking radar, EO, 2 different missiles, 35mm gun with ATOM. This big boy might be the most comprehensive anti drone/cruise missile system ever. It will be very expensive for sure and I don't see us buying this anytime soon. Saudis however would love it for their oil facilities.

    Horrible wildfire in Rhodes would be a great showcase of our amphibious surface vessels' humanitarian capabilities. Ç Class Landing craft, Bayraktar sisters and even Anadolu with her helicopters could do some good work. Looks like people are trapped and there aren't enough vessels to remove all...

    Didn't see anyone share this yet. Don't know how if it's final or not, but interesting. MKE to supply 27.5 million dollars worth of spares to Brazil for their M109 SPGs. New 39 caliber 155mm barrels maybe?

    Well that is good news. Looks like deal also includes "increasing the capability of" FAMAE, which is basically Chile's MKE. Wording sounds like Aselsan will be a subcontractor to FAMAE, which I can't say I love, but good news regardless.

    It wasn't up to them. You should go watch Death of Yugoslavia and read the Dayton Accords.

    Turns out Turkish cargo planes to Libya have been increasingly using NATO/Italian airspace while still skirting Greece for some time now, thought it was interesting.

    Over the decades, they bought many Israeli tech, even trained with Israeli special forces on multiple occasions. Not sure about radars though.

    They are being built to defend our own. We already lost a decade of our potential to this kind of rhetoric. We no longer have the time to spare. There won't be a Israeli Turkish gas deal where South Cyprus isn't a part of in some manner.

    All this is true yes. But this will be a long war and with the current attrition, Chieftains/Khalids may just see action for a final time as well. That would actually be a nice little list if you have the time.

    Quoting from the Oil and Gas thread, Turns out, this was published just yesterday. We've seen this multiple times, yes. But for the first time in 20 years, there could be actual incentive for a change in the status quo with the Israeli gas connection...

    Looks to me that Israeli Turkish cooperation will only deepen As Netanyahu seeks to change Israeli judicial and democratic system for his own benefit.

    South Cyprus, EU, UN. Without South Cypriot agreement, looks dead on water to me. If Israel was to recognize N Cyprus, which I doubt is happening, it'd be a great start though.
