    TR Air-Force TF-X KAAN Fighter Jet

    They are buying a 50.000 core new computer for simulations. It will be less than 5 full years before it flies.

    TR Attack & Utility Helicopter Programs

    They must be keeping the surprise element alive as it is supposed to be imminent now. IDEF21 should have the answer.

    TR Indigenously Made Firearms & Medium Calibre Weapons

    This is one persons experience. I am a big fan of Canik as I once wanted to include it in a video game I once attempted to develop. And in the last several years I keep watching Youtube videos of Canik pistols. I made a habit of viewing those videos every month because it is all positive and is...

    TR Indigenously Made Firearms & Medium Calibre Weapons

    Not all all people, Glocks are respected guns but they come with a bad trigger, plastic sights and their grip angle is odd and the price is 40% or so higher. Canik has built a respectable aftermarket over the past few years and there simple is not much that you can't find for Caniks. Canik will...

    TR Indigenously Made Firearms & Medium Calibre Weapons

    They are wiser than that as they take price into consideration and especially Canik TP9 pistols are no brainers. Canik alone sells like 330k pistols a year (2020 election year). They are well respected and many people ditch Glocks and pick up Caniks for their price and quality.

    TR Defence Exports & Updates

    Situations change overnight. If you want to change the situation to your liking you need to be in the game. There is no falling out and distancing yourself when you have the means to make a difference. We don't want the Persians to have the upperhand, we don't want the west to be the master to...

    TR Defence Exports & Updates

    We don't want them to rely on someone else instead of us, as happened so far. It is always better to be in the game rather then watch from the sidelines.

    TR F-16 Özgür | Hürkuş - Fighter Trainer Aircraft Projects

    No, it is not worth it. Unless we go for smaller UAVs rather than large manned planes. A 4-5 ton VTOL UAV carrying small precision weapons will be perfect for our navy and offshore bases.

    SSB visual shows TF-23 sporting mach 2 speed. :love:

    A little underdressed for that mission, a better fit for presidential escorts.

    Turkey has gotten past that stage and now admired by our expats due to superb governance and brilliant results seen everywhere.

    Possibly a sabotage under the disguise of a drunken failure.

    TR Air Defence Programs

    It would be fantastic to have a good info-graphics that shows where each potential element of our future air defense system functions. I guess nobody has the full picture yet (?)

    An İstif Class escort would be a better fit than an Ada Class.

    FYI: Gurbetçi means expats (expatriate), particularly Turkish expats in Europe.

    TR Air Defence Programs

    Probably not just yet. They have a new leadership and probably a bigger vision now. Turkey needs a fast CIWS beside Korkut and Gökdeniz and the gun is the bigger part of the project. Adding Aselsan into the mix down the road shouldn't be an insult to Aselsan, after all they are both public...

    TR Air Defence Programs

    They should of course give their best but if it is ground based they can as well employ multiple units to target the same target and double or triple the firing rate if they hit a bottleneck in packing all the power in one unit.

    TR F-16 Özgür | Hürkuş - Fighter Trainer Aircraft Projects

    I think the Hürkuş project was also a learning project for TAI. An easy piece of project that they can experiment with rather than deliver quickly. I had once met the person heading the project on an occasion. He said that they developed an airfoil from scratch for the wings and that the F35 had...

    TR Casual Discussion Çay Bahçesi

    I lost my ID card today and found it back in an hour. I had placed it in my pocket carelessly because I didn't get to wash my hands after a leak job for a test at a clinic. I suspected that I dropped it on the street and went back looking for it in half an hour. I looked and looked and came by...
