There are inbuilt software safety for export versions. Which restrict the use in ways that exporter country may not prefer. But you can't downgrade the hardware and also call it true 5th gen. For example, there was a official talk of USAF buying off Turkish F-35s with some additional software...

Except that is not how it works. USA do sell its latest product, I.e. F-35. Which is no less than F-22. UK, Italy & Japan is planning to export Tempset. S-500 isn't an upgrade of S-400. It is different system. Neither replaces the other. And Russisa did try to market S-500 to India. But more...

That is right. SSB already singed a $2 billion contract last year with Aselsan and TAI for Ozgur ii project, that also includes block 40/50. with delivery set to begin from 2025-2027 for block 30s, and 2028-2030 for block 40/50.

Yeah, I found it later. Sounds like a hoax.

Won't that require changing the State's name itself? Afaik, no country has ever done that.

The reason such 'horrendus death unleashing' won't work with Iran because then it will throw the kitchen sink. And it simply has the ability to overwhelm the local American defenses. Which will result in significant destruction of US interests across the region. Then USA will have no choice but...

This isn't realistic.

That is actually very true. J20 in this context does not make PLAAF decisive. Instead of calculating 1vs1, the main idea is to avoid the enemy strength and strike his weakness with friendly strength. IAF in this scenario using Brahmos, Pralay & future SSM systems can practically saturate those...

Seriously, which Air Force school did you graduate from?

You seems to know a lot about them.🧐

Morocca and USA relationship is deep rooted in significant historical ties. (Look up the history, very interesting) Hence, Morocco (for good reasons) will always keep an important aspect of its National security tied to USA.

Thank you. That is what I was hoping to hear. Low frequency Towed sonar is indispensable for effective ASW. If I am not mistaken HIZIR had low frequency passive array, should it be enough to listen for Submarine at a more significant distance than Mid-frequency hull mounted active sonar? Or...

Guys, stop overhyping. Nothing is gonna happen. Just enjoy the show while it last.

@Rooxbar are you around today?

Yes, so I am aware of this basic concept of primatology. But don't know anything about Gimbutas's works. (I know somebody who read her. Maybe I will ask him for a crash course.) For now, I assume it to be about the return of ancient 'neutral' environment and women having the mate choice...

You are right 120D has foreign users. I was talking about D-3 which resulted from F3R program. And so far it hasn't been offered for export yet afaik. C-8 also incorporate the advances of F3R program.

Just having GaN tech does not necessarily makes it best though. GaN offer wider bandwidth and efficiency in terms of cooling due to higher voltage tolerace. Which is good but from my understanding, radar's performance is more impacted by antenna gain, reciever gain, better beam directivity, &...

Technically yes. But it is indeed the best one out there today. No other fighter has better radar than F-35. And continue to be until APG-85 comes along in 2025.

SABR uses 95% of APG-81's technology. RBE2 is old yes.

D-3 is only for domestic use afaik. C-3 is its export variant.
