    As tensions rise with China, Australia is ‘not so safe’, warns former Malaysian PM Mahathir

    They are generally from the higher quality folks compared to wumaos, which we may or may not have a specimen in this forum. The root of the issue is Han elitism/supremacism.

    TR HÜRJET-Advanced Jet Trainer/ Light attack aircraft

    They may uprate the payload capacity later (and take a hit on range) if it calls for it (either on original model or variant). You will notice right now there is a design point picked with a longer range than T-50 ~ (2600 km vs 1800 km) so that would determine the projected payload capacity of...

    TR Air-Force TF-X KAAN Fighter Jet

    Yes these are all part of the data handling optimization done downstream. Computation capacity and time are resources like any other and aviation wise are heavily limited by mass/volume budget on top....compared to say what naval and land AESAs have available. Thus you need robust ELINT...

    TR Air-Force TF-X KAAN Fighter Jet

    Yes any AESA radar by default has a passive (receive only) mode. People sometimes assume PESA means the whole system is passive only...but that is not the case. It is very much has an emitter mode too, it just comes from a separate radio transmitter that is split up...hence the array itself is...

    I would imagine it is cooperation with Japanese heavies like Mitsubishi, so should be even better. LT has a long term partnership with Mitsubishi in boilers and steam turbines for example.

    I have a feeling its related to true number of casualties at Galwan from their side. The field officers etc apply pressure upwards for recognition of those under their command sacrifice.....it eventually accumulates at the highest level due to downward squelching originating from there. Let...
