Great summary of infos regarding countries and their intentions.
But I believe bloc 2 is not a real bloc, more a loose union. Here turkey has to act very clever. Gunboat diplomacy will play a key role but isn't the answer for every problem.
Yeah I also think that's a fair proposal. Both countries could live with this solution.
But you're right. Greece will not accept what is good for both countries as long as Europe is behind them and accept every utterly unrealistic demand from Greece. France is the key player here.
This will really be a great capability!
Considering how effective Turkish military used only tb2's, in combination with akıncı thiese drones will be a real nightmare for every enemy force.
Very objective and informative video about the problems in the Aegean. I posted it here because it's related to the problems int the Mediterranean.
Also his suggestion to solve the problems regarding territorial waters is not bad at all.
I have read akıncı can control several tb2. So the range limitations would be decreased significantly. Can someone confirm?
Akıncı controlled via SATCOM and tb2 controlled via akıncı as transmitter would be a force multiplier. Imagine several tb2 as vanguard taking out pantsirs to clear the...
He is so obsessive with Turkish defence industry. He should join the forum 😅
It's been a while but I can remember Erdoğan made a speech where he pointed out that turkey need ballistic missiles with ranges over 1000 km. After this speech I never ever heard something regarding this subject again...
Is kement already operational? Do TurAF already have Kement enabled SOM in inventory? Will our AWACS be able to guide/redirect Kement enabled missiles?
Countries which master network enabled warfare/technology will be the dominant powers in future. Turkey recognized the trend.
The comparison of single weapon systems in a fictive situation to make a biased comment is ridiculous and unrealistic. Success is the result of the interaction of every weapon system, sensors, soldiers on the field and more. Here everything (human and machine) has to play his part to be...
This should be a wake up call for the government to accelerate the naval procurement especially I class frigate. It's a pity that this ship is delayed for so long. Also there is no contract for the other three ships. Unbelievable if you consider the situation in the Mediterranean!
I also thought the same!
"several critical material problems" sounds not very promising. We need this missiles desperately in Syria and Libya.
I hope soon we will hear good news in terms of mass production.
At the first announcement there were rumours that there are 1 trillion cubic meters but Erdoğan announced just 320 billion. I was disappointed and didn't understand why he didn't reveal the whole finding. There was no impact to the markets.
Now I understand his strategy and it's a good one. To...
Hahaha I too. I was also in japan but the Japanese girls don't make eye contact on the streets. I think it has something to do with their culture. Or maybe I am just ugly 🤣
Hahahaha... Ahhh ok nowww I get it. Good one!👍😂
For me I like Japan a lot and also the concept of a leaderless warrior. Therefore I choose the name Ronin. 👍
Of course not. Especially not France! 😅
Most of the time the Europeans are busy to find a consensus. Very often they fail. Here are opportunities for a smart turkey to disturb the European unity.
Exactly. In the end Italy is a member of Europe. They have somehow the obligation to support Greece. But I think they also don't like expanding France in the Mediterranean like turkey. Therefore we should take the opportunity to put an edge in the European phalanx. Turkey should be flexible to...
I agree on all points!
Especially we should prioritize an agreement with Israel. In my opinion an agreement would brake the east med alliance. It would be a punch in the face of Greece. With a common base with Israel we would also lift the pressures from Europe. They wouldn't dare (at least not...
