    They signed a G2G contract, it's not yet clear which design will be supplied by which company. Just that it will be built in Turkey.

    Every single C919 order save for about 20 Singaporean and about 3 Laotian aircraft are from Chinese airlines and leasing firms, about half of all total orders are from Chinese banks. They bet on financing and then leasing the aircraft abroad once the certification outside is done. It still has...

    Of course, E-Jets use PW engines. To be clear I don't think this is about a new or joint IP for a new project but TAI taking part in some part(from built to spec to print to build, maybe even license building) of E-Jet production; with possible future dealings in military sector. Political will...

    Looks like the long mentioned Embraer E-Jet partnership with TAI might also come together with a THY buy of E-Jets if it happens. I don't really see how that really would work unless it's for AJet, but let's see. "What makes this matter significant is not just Turkish Airlines’ search for...

    This was quick. Before new LSTs are even awarded, one of the Bey Class LSTs was reclassed as a cargo ship along with old 140 class LCTs instead of a landing ship and other is removed from service altogether.

    Our last entry into WC was 2002, before that it was 1958. We never had that magic honestly save for individual talent and greater camaraderie in 2002. Lineup was shit for this match and Montella is out of his depth. Australians used a very simple tactic of all hands on deck defending trusting...

    Debatable honestly. They have talent sure, but hardly a "team".

    Sea Launch used a modified oil rig to send out many successful missions using Zenit rockets over a decade. There was one explosion aboard during a launch about 20 years ago but noone was injured as all launches were done remotely. Using an active duty ship as a space launch vehicle would make...

    There was a plan to retrofit the old Garibaldi as a space launch system called Simona. Those plans of course went nowhere.

    We should strap the FIFA president who gave the cup to American continent to a rocket and throw it into space; how am I supposed to watch a match at 5AM. No excitement whatsoever sadly.

    Nope, most probably just a flyby. This is not even Hürjet's first formation flight with Stars. First was in 2024.

    So Akhisar will also be announced as an AJÜ like Dalaman before it and there will be a transfer of some capability there, but not clear if command structure will be carried over just yet. That's probably because it will be, but it's not yet officially announced. Most fun thinbg is, I think we...

    They were getting overhauled, I believe they would have a wingbox change as well and we know that few months ago TurAF technicians flew to UK for training. No timeline is provided, but work is being done concurrently on the airframes. We should remember that wingbox replacement is a very very...

    Greece will pay 600 million euros for 3 C-390s and a "first logistical package" by the way. C-390 is more expensive and if we ordered fresh built C-130Js we would have commonality with ex-RAF C-130s.

    Çiğli AFB, 2.th AJÜ along with Air Training Command and Air Technical Schools Command to be moved to Manisa Akhisar. Weird thing is the news being broken by the AKP's district official. Strategy wise, probably a safer location.
