M-60TM is a further upgrade of the SABRA Tank. Basically, an up-to-date upgrade of M-60T SABRAs. On top of that we are replacing every fire control system on SABRA tanks. https://www.defenceturk.net/m60t-tanklarina-yerli-ve-milli-atis-kontrol-sistemi-volkan-m If we upgrade M-60A3 with...

No. I'm talking about something like Tulpar with add-on armor. That is over 40 tonnes in weight. A real tracked heavy IFV. A part of the 2900+ vehicles will consist of tracked heavy IFVs I don't know how many. Those will be similar to German Puma...

We are not talking about old M-60s here. We are talking about a SABRA level upgrade. Sabra can withstand hits from ATGMs. SABRA protected its crew many times with its add-on armor. I don't think a medium tank can take a hit from an ATGM and its crew survives to tell the tale.

No decision on that yet and I don't think upgrading all M-60s is logical .M-60TM weighs 56 tonnes while medium tanks weigh 35-40tonnes. M-60TM can be classified as a heavy tank. We also need to design a new turret for the medium tank because Cockerill doesn't sell us their turrets. Turret of the...

A life lesson for all. Don't try to interfere or break up a street fight or a fight between a husband and a wife.

AKP wants to turn Turkiye into a multicultural ummah with a light sharia rule governed by a Caliph. Things were going really well on that front until PKK wanted independence (PKK was emboldened by the peace process, AKP accepted PKK autonomy in peace process talks but PKK wanted everything just...

Well, the references section speaks for itself. It seems like HST will be responsible for the production of the power pack or at least the transmission part. X1100-5A4 transmission can be coupled with engines up to 1500HP and can be used for vehicles up to 63.5 tonnes.

Or this might be a good propaganda method to villainize the Turks.

Because opposition is also the same. When it comes to the hatred against the Turkish nations those work together.

Greece doesn't want YPG to be cut down in size. Greece wants YPG to be a constant threat to Turkiye. They are trying to protect YPG indirectly this is done with the blessings of the US. With this announcement of exercises, Greece is trying to send a message that when Turkiye commits to an...

Lol CHP kicked the mayor of Bolu, Mr. Tanju Özcan from the party. He is known as a hardliner against refugees and a good patriot who follows Ataturk's teachings. He won the mayorship of Bolu for the CHP against all odds(Bolu is a conservative city and one of the strongholds of AKP). This is done...

"Hüdavendigar"(Sultan Murad I) might have been a good name. He largely expanded the Ottoman state and won the Kosova battle. He founded the famous Janissary Corps. He was the only sultan who died on the battlefield. Another good name is the name of the son of Sultan Murad I Sultan Bayezid I (...

Greece is trying to affect Astana talks. Astana talks will be held on 14-16 June.

That number includes all the different types of batteries that will be produced in the battery factory. We don't know how much of that is li-ion production. Anyway, TR will emerge as a huge battery producer after current investments start bearing fruits.

Nothing will happen before the Astana talks that start today and will continue for 3 days.

This is another racist move against the Turks by the Erdogan.

We also have the export rights of the powerpack. IMHO it is a great success. According to the link, 53 power packs will be delivered this year. The first one will be delivered in June. Those power packs can also be used for upgrading M60 tanks without any change or additional engineering...

Yes, using MX-15 level FLIR for TB2 is overkill. Anka is fine with MX-15 though. Most of the time TB2 operates under 20k feet and closer to the target. There is no need to get insane-quality videos from 100+km with TB2. With a more appropriate EO targeting system, TB2 can be even more...

Not a very appropriate name for a sea vessel because of his treatment of the Ottoman Imperial Navy. He was also not one of the best Sultans. This is political. Some People will mindlessly attack the name of the vessel he will consolidate his base. It was named Alparslan Erdo changed it.
