Those are people who want to run their own show rather than helping Turkey.
They also do damage to Turkey's policies stirring public opinion towards non-government opinions.
I've never trusted them, they do what they are doing to gain support for their work, and the supporters can drive them...
These old timer heads are rotten eggs who are good for nothing. Their hidden masters pulled their strings to extract the last bit of juice out of them. They are voicing the wishes of the invaders of Turkey who made Turkey the loser wanting Turkey to stay the loser. They don't want Turkish...
I don't see why they made such a design.
It has no merit as far as eye can see.
It is a bicopter but the wings are curly and there is no shaft running from one motor to the other.
In such designs like the V-280 Valor and the Ospreys each engine can drive both proprotors and provide redundancy in...
They better be done with classic airplanes soon and move on to the next level.
We are falling far behind the world in the eVTOL aircraft area.
There is no national policy and the existing designs are nothing but toys.
You can not wait for someone else to invent it for you.
Italians used similar systems, I have seen pictures of it already.
The difference is our TCG Anadolu is a multi-mission ship and keeping it fully armed at all times is not suitable.
Siper can be used this way without losing any of its capacity.
I certainly do not suggest a land based system to be deployed on board the ship.
I suggest launchers to be attached to the starboard side where the castle is outside the bulkhead.
I have seen some ships like that, probably Italian ships but they maybe permanent installations. What I am...
Probably a good way of both arming TCG Anadolu with air defense missiles and not arming it is making the air defense add-ons portable. You only deploy the rocket launchers if the mission at hand requires it and keep the ship intact if not.
Given the weight ballpark value of 1200kg a wingspan of 15m is required for the TB3 if the design features of TB2 aerodynamics are to be carried over. However considering the runway length and whether the plane must take off under its own power or to be accelerated by cable a design change to...
With Turkey's self reliance policy the paradigm has changed completely.
We will not rely on Germans or Israelis or Americans or the British for our defense. Even tiny Israel won't settle to rely on outsiders for defense. This makes our past arguments obsolete. That who makes us stronger against...
It will probably be another half decade before fully indigenous products are made. Nowadays we are still playing catch up in most areas in an effort to meet our national needs and make some extra cash taking opportunities to export our products. What matters is whether we cut the reliance on...
Probably a cable attached to the bow going over the ski-jump can be neater hiding the machinery somewhere at the fore marine deck. It can even be an endless cable running continuously rather than back and forth. This will use the front of the runway emptying the back end for landing.
"ludicrous drive mode" is Tesla Cars' fast acceleration mode, not that I am a fan of Tesla. With this I mean even a simple, fast electric car can drive this plane to take off speed as the possible additional acceleration margin is not huge if any. The car will not travel the whole runway and...
TB3 with 1200kg take off weight can either take off on its own power or a low profile electric car can push it to take off speed in ludicrous drive mode. In any case it shouldn't be a problem for it to take off from TCG Anadolu.
