    PKK burning down France and Europe

    I call all French nationalists and patriots who love their state to the streets. For those who are old enough to remember the arsons of the FLNC: even they had some ethics, but you will not find an iota of it in these pkk terrorists. Take care of your country, otherwise tomorrow it will be too...

    For unskilled workers, this increase of 100% on an annual basis will provide significant relief. 455 dollars net salary, which I think is the highest minimum wage in foreign currency in the history of the republic. Adjusted for inflation, it should be equivalent to around 350-360 dollars 20...

    In the corner of trivia today: Izmit is actually the name of the central district of Kocaeli. Kocaeli provincial borders include the districts that are extensions of Istanbul, but it is the industrial zones and factories that make the province whole. Kocaeli actually means Izmit, but the...

    Hurkus can use 20mm cannons. It has a very high maneuverability, climbing ability and angle of attack. It has roughly twice the cruising speed of systems such as AKSUNGUR, and its stall speed can be as low as 70 knots. In other words, it can perform both rapid deployment and air patrol at very...

    Like Neil Amstrong's first steps on moon. But this time, it is not about the beginning of man's space adventure, but the first steps towards an age of machines that can think and function like humankind.

    Ofc. I just wanted to say that there could be such a possibility, at least theoretically.

    It is possible if the weapon bay length is over 4 meters. Considering that Som-J's total length is 3.9 meters, I think the answer is clear.

    In this elephant walk footage, the payload (excluding the pylons) is about 1600 kg. This shows that AKINCI-B/C can theoretically take off with 7 TRG/IHA-230, may be 8. One or two under fuselage, and others at under wing.

    A rocket cruising at an average speed of 4 mach to a distance of 200 km takes less than 150 seconds to meet the target. Bringing this strike capability to UAVs could open a completely new chapter in air-ground missions. Personally, I think that the Air-launched TRLG-230 could lead us to see many...

    The integration of TRG-230 into AKINCI is a great achievement in every respect. It also opens to way forward that going to ALBM capability next years. AKINCI continues to be a game changer.

    I guess there is no open source information with Roketsan, so let's give an example from a very similar US counterpart so that it can be better understood what will be gained by making the artillery rocket air-launched: HIMARS M30/M31 GMLRS rockets strike their targets at the speed of Mach 2.5...

    The operational combat radius is about 3 times that at least. More than a year ago, the Bayraktar AKINCI flew for nearly 14 hours with a payload of 1,360 kg. During these endurance test flights, 7500 km were also covered in a single sortie.

    We are finally making guided artillery rockets air-launchable. The total warhead impact diameter of 6 TRG-230s is around 300 meters by 55-60 meters, which can destroy an entire military convoy in one sortie.

    At the end of the 90s, NASA managed to reach an altitude of 60,000ft with the Rotax 912 (with a three-stage turbocharger capable of providing sea-level air pressure at 60,000 feet altitude) in the Perseus-B project.

    I see this hand and raise: KE/ANKA-3 wings following a dozen or so JEMSAH, and as third layer, 5th generation fighters flying in a completely passive mode. The 'real' fifth-generation jet's concept of operations could make it virtually impossible for an adversary force to reach it.

    What I am curious about is whether the fuselage and wing of the ANKA-3 were manufactured as a single piece. As far as it has been officially announced, it is now official that it is a stealth flying wing UCAV. If we are manufacturing the entire aircraft structure as a whole, the ANKA-3 may...

    Both MIUS KE and TISU will use variants of the same engine. This will be a huge advantage for air force logistics. Imagine TISUs flying with KEs in formation. There is no better symbol for the start of second century of the Republic.

    I listened to a few discussions about the minimum wage today. There is an expectation between 7800-8500 tl, which corresponds to somewhere between 420-460 dollars at the current exchange rate. This means that on January 1, 2016, the highest minimum wage level in the history of the republic in...
