    Too early to say. Maybe you are right. But we could see direct escalation.

    The way I see it, those are clear warhead impacts. As for the damage assessment, it is near impossible to know now.

    Not only Arrows. As you well know, they also have David's sling, Patriot and THAAD battery (US operated) as well as AEGIS destroyers in position. In time we will get a better assessment.

    Live Conflict Israel-Palestine War|Regional Escalations

    I guess only thing we can concur so far, is that Israeli Air and missile defense has failed partially. Whatever the number of casualties (if any) or the extent of damage, the penetration seems higher than the last time.

    @Chocopie could you make a compilation of all Hyunmoo missiles' photos in order?

    The way I see it, these systems' effectiveness are conditional. They have excellent utility in shore locked Aegean, Mediterranean and black seas combined with other naval and air assets for Türkiye's strategic context. But then if a country like Bangladesh bought these, it doesn't have much...

    Technically after SIPER block 3 I don't see any reason why it couldn't be done. ASAT+plus ICBM interceptor into one. But TSK has to analyze the strategic imperative first, then proceed.

    That is not entirely due to Turks' geniuses. Neither exclusive to them. Early Islamic empires had a unique structural set up that allowed unparalleled upward social and political mobility for freed slaves and their descendents within a generation. Ottoman system also had similar characteristics...

    I will go with the Abbasid first.

    Interesting. It is already 30km. SM-6 has 33km. How SIPER block-2 with conventional control surfaces goes above that? From what I read, at those altitude atmosphere become much thinner rendering conventional control surfaces ineffective.

    That is largely irrelevant when your foreign policy is historically and currently firm on supporting Israel. Minority opinions understandably does not reflect here. I am more interested in how these states behave in the end on international stage.

    I don't think so. It would probably be like AIM-120D with 60% to 80% increase in effective range over current Gokdogan. (From 100km to 180km)

    Australia and Canada are colonial settler states stemming from the same origin. It make sense that both are largely identical to modern day UK. Also one could easily see why these countries vehemently support Israel. Culturally, it is very similar to the West. Plus it serves the core...

    They are making a longer range version of Gokdogan. That is independent of Gokhan.

    They should rename it the Axis of Hesitance at this point.
