    TR Altay Main Battle Tank & Related Programs

    No, one of the important thing that Armies strive for, is the simplicity of C2 and management. What you described out there, will only complicated C2. Not only that, by imposing additional complexities, it will create extra vulnerabilities in the operational framework and kill chain. In this...

    RWS moves/rotates on its own. The engagement cna be fully automated. And airburst smart ammunitions is quite effective against swarm drones.

    TR Altay Main Battle Tank & Related Programs

    The M230LF with the ability to fire smart airburst ammunitions for counter-UAS role has been mounted on Abrams X. When integrated with APS's radars, it will be able to shoot down small FVP drones and quadcopters efficiently. Plus, it also enables the tank to perform IFV role.

    Yes, but the counter point to this, is ubiquity of AI enabled target recognition, and GPS independence terrain based navigation.

    What do you mean 'liberated'? If you are neutral, why using politically loaded langauge?

    F35B is better suited given Turkish carrier doesn't have CATABOR.

    Don't encourage him, he is been politely patronizing me.😡 Jokes aside, yes and no. Trade-wise BD is highly depended on the West. It is No secret, but the only way they can meaningfully leverage that is through sanction. Which obviously not gonna happen. (Any other rmethod is not working &...

    Insights Into The United States' Indo-Pacific Policy & Outcomes

    It is nothing new though. They have been saying similar stuffs as a diplomatic manner. Actually, so far all the respected people I talked too (who knows regional geopolitics far better than me) told me, USA has a change of regional policy (South Asia) in alignment with its greater Asia-Pasific...

    Yes, those attributes will make the platform better and more enhanced. But I still don't see how not having those makes Current Altay obsolete. You may call it less efficient but not obsolete. Because, many of the contemporaries will be very much in use and backbone of advanced armies in 2030s...

    TR Altay Main Battle Tank & Related Programs

    It probably doesn't matter how many times you explain it. I figured, most of us (online defence enthusiast) can't visualize the battlefield in its entirety. The biggest problem is, we look at the operational picture primarily through the lense of the weapon system/platform's specs and how it...

    TR Sensors and Detector Programs

    Those are slightly two different Band though. The higher the frequency the shorter the range afaik. Numbers of tracks is good for chenk but I am a bit disappointed with fighter detection range being 160km only. (Chances are, against a 1m RCS target. I expected 250-300km detection range)

    TR Air-Force TF-X KAAN Fighter Jet

    Single engine TFX would carry the same risk as 2 engine KAAN. I.g. F35 isn't any less sophisticated than F-22. Unless Turkey want to develop a very much downgraded version. Then it won't be proper 5th gen anymore. And some countries do have alternative. Pakistan is planning to induct J-35...

    They didn't. Spain kept it even after the deployment period ended. Italy deployed a new system. German, dutch & US Patriot deployment period ended. (All of it was predermined) They could have extended the deployment like Spain but they didn't because they had different threat assessment...
