Helicopters are ready to be delivered tomorrow but there won't be any delivery of Gokbeys without the required EASA certification.

ACE is mostly related to design. You can design an ACE engine with directionally solidified turbine blades. On the other hand, CMC is the real deal. It is a generational leap from today's standard single-crystal blades.

We should ban the eagle of Germany and Austria. IMHO this is the best answer.

He was fired from Tubitak SAGE.

This is due to the state behaving in an utterly irresponsible way. Temporary refuge seekers always get away when they commit a crime. The heaviest punishment is deportation and most of the time they were released after 1 night in detention. Mob justice is wrong but what do you expect when the...

It is really good to see EASA tests are progressing smoothly. Hopefully TS-1400 can pass all EASA tests this year (EASA should send experts for tests more frequently) and TS-1400 mass production can start in 2025.

The US recently delivered more than 10k JDAMs to replenish IAF stocks. IAF is ready for an operation against Hizbullah. There is no winning against IAF air superiority. Hizbullah must hit back as much as possible to hurt Israel. This way the Israeli government will come under immense pressure to...

Aselsan is working on 30mm and 25mm products similar to Gökdeniz. 30mm might be a good alternative to the current 35mm Gökdeniz, especially for the smaller platforms.

The West certainly came to accept the reality that we are here and will be in the foreseeable future(it was a bitter pill for them to swallow) but the West will do everything to keep us at a manageable size sometimes in an outright hostile way and most of the times with underhanded tactics.

F517 TCG İzmit (I class frigate) it seems like there is good progress so far.

That is the biggest bullshit I have ever heard. Fatih district alone should have something like a million foreigners.

It doesn't work that way. If armed forces act as a unified structure no one is dumb enough to fight against it and there will be a successful coup but most of the time armed forces also fracture into two or more cliques. In that case, armed militia/people can change the tide of the conflict.

Yeah somewhat. He is a journalist. He must have heard the news from the Turkish side. I guess Turkiye can provide 4x Hisar class OPV+4x I class frigates for somewhere around 2.5 billion euros depending on the package. The price tag should be around 150 million for Hisar class OPVs and 400...

Big if true. The Navy of Bangladesh will be a force to be reckoned with if those projects become a reality.

He is a qualified guy there is no doubt about that. He is nothing like the zoo manager who was appointed to some division of Tubitak in the past but there are two things to take notice. 1) He was "vice director" of the helicopter division of TUSAS so he is promoted ahead of people that outrank...

It is not that easy again if you increase pulsewidth it will take a longer time to create and send pulses, it is a delicate balance. Aselsan uses foreign-sourced oscillators. Aselsan has been working on doped sapphire and quartz crystals inside its advanced materials research center (the same...

You guys are chasing the wrong ghosts. Rensselaer Polytechnic lobby removed Temel Kotil. New SSB head has been appointing Rensselaer graduates left and right since he took office. https://www.linkedin.com/in/prof-dr-haluk-gorgun-98670818/?originalSubdomain=tr...

So you are saying Russian radar has equal PRF to Western radars? I would love to see the Russian oscillator that enables above 100 kHz PRF. IMHO even the 100 kHz assumption is overestimation for the Russian hardware. For comparison Korean AESA radar will have 150 kHz max PRF. By the way higher...

It is a wonderful simulator and a state-of-the-art training facility. I have seen it up close.

If all else fails for Israel. The US will intervene, and you can be sure of that.
