Japan has shut down many of their nuclear power plants after Fukushima Daiichi incident.
I think they are down to less than 40% of their prior nuclear power capacity.
I wish a Molten Salt Thorium Reactor power plant were built instead but seems like we are half a decade away from that. So yeah, if you can't build your own nuclear power plant somebody else will.
Alka is big and bulky at its existing iteration. They are supposed to be making compact versions of it for easier deployment. But still you don't want to deploy such futuristic weapons just anywhere.
Optical AI trackers can be useful instead of radars. Tesla motors is using optical processing for collision detection rather than radars. Imaging infrared or visible light processing can do a good job for slow flying objects. If the object is detected at a close distance a smaller caliber gun...
Small caliber CIWS would be a good solution to Iranian Shahids.
25mm MKE and the new 50 cal Canik M2 QCB and even lesser guns or 40mm grenade launched from automated towers should do the job I guess.
They can't believe it really happened.
You guys remember discussions of whether the main bulkhead of the TFX can be made with domestic means or not, likewise now there is no talk about it anymore.
At some point Greeks will realize that maximalist claims only serve foreign interests and not of Greeks' and stop risking their security for the benefit of foreigners.
If Tayfun is placed on a ship or a sub, even a lesser sub that won't go deep it basically expands our reach to most of our surroundings. Looking at the missile's modest range and size if it can be launched from a bomber it can cover a region as much as you practically want.
152 is the number of days to pass before which
Kızılelma will fly
TB3 will fly
Hürjet will fly
Atak 2 will fly
TFX will taxi
Other planes and helicopters within a year.
We just need the engines, planes are already near their completion.
Mr. Kotil has his hands full otherwise we could pressure him to be more precise about a new UAV.
It goes back and forth between a full grown bomber and a man portable model drone in size as it seems now.
No we can't, they have a big punch and it will hurt us too.
Better be it in Libya or Syria or somewhere in Central Asia where we are facing Russia and Iran.
