I think this is just the beginning, so they are ok with taking a hit on payload to orbit in order to learn re-entry and landing. I think the following rocket will be much bigger and probably in the medium lift category given the company’s ambitions

I believe it to be plausible. Aselsan is an R&D focused organisation and like TAI have a hard time scaling production. Baykar is a mass-production focused organisation.

Could also be that they are unhappy with Aselsan not being able to scale production fast enough. Maybe the EOTS is a bottleneck and they are solving it by doing it in house

They must be getting something important in return to make such a pointless plant in Ukraine.

Cruise missile? what?

Apparently it was hacked and redirected towards Ukraine (like Iran did with the US drone). The russians quickly shot it down. Doesn't look good at all for Russia.

They only start offering these systems when they know Turkiye will soon have its own alternatives. They are trying to kill Turkiye's domestic projects. Don't fall for their scheme. Stick with the F-16 until KE, ANKA 3, Hurjet and KAAN is ready.

The most North Korean truck in the market. Damn it is ugly.

In Istanbul the next 10 days. Any non-obvious recommendations of things to see and places to eat? 🇹🇷

Az MoD started posting videos of heavy equipment training again. Every time they've done that intensely has been before an operation.

Roketsan is being painfully slow. Hopefully Fergani Space can accelerate things.

A 50 ton launch vehicle would be able to deliver approx 1000 kg to LEO if comparing it with Firefly or Relativity Space. That would be a good start!

T-625 delivery? 😯

I think Armenia is preparing itself for a round 3 of proper beating. In recent weeks, Putin and the Russian government have called for the corridor to be established. This week, Minister of Foreign Affairs of Azerbaijan stressed that the corridor must be established. Today, Aliyev stated that...

Maybe more destroyed on the ground. RU hit the airbase where they are located with cruise missiles after somebody leaked a photo of their location.

Apparently KAAN is very high on the agenda for Egypt during Sisi's visit.

First F-16 destroyed. Ukr media announced the death of a F-16 pilot. He was killed while performing a combat mission. Edit:

RU sources: RU forces has entered the town Myrnohrad from the south. Taken the village of Lisivka and preparing to enter the village Vodyane. Ukr sources: RU forces entered the town of Ukraine south of Myrnohrad and west of Lisivka. Collapse continues.

I believe this is optical illusion due to the sun.

Selydove a town of 25K inhabitants (before evacuation) is being reported abandoned by Ukraine after 1 day of fighting. Russian troops are being reported in the town center.
