I think Pakistan is doing the right thing. Make sure the refugee camps or whatever is not on Pakistan soil.

I am very curious to how PAF is going to solve this. F16 is truly a workhorse and likely the most reliable airframe out there. Maybe Türkiyes Özgür program could be a solution after certain time has passed. Considering how we've managed to integrate some of our munition on JF17.

I am looking forward to seeing how this is going to be handled. Considering TEI has experience assembling there could be a division of work, so we assemble half in Türkiye. Let's see.

A Greek F16 crashed, but pilot survived. I don't remember that being forbidden from sharing. Only if there has been death.

Türkiyes financial situation. The spendings may have increased due to how the economy was managed in the past, but mange acquisitions have been delayed or shifted elsewhere. The longer these spendings can be offset/delayed the more money the government can inject into their projects. No easing...

I don't believe this government will spend any additional money on defence even if our GDP increases as mentioned.

It's amusing how everyone is into football 😆 I think Messi is great too as a football player. And that is the only thing that should matter in sports along with sportsmanship.

If we ever get them sure, let's make sure to have them upgraded to newest standard. But like it was so nicely pointed out. F35 should be history for us, and only use able for training, gauging its capabilities compared to our fleet of F16, EF, KAAN in the future, but nothing is set in stone...

I understand what you are saying, but unfortunately our defense industry is no way able to deliver in those 2 years. We need KAAN up and flying and doing missions with those engines. So we can "buy" some time.

Interesting how cancerous UAE are.

Istanbul like many other big cities has grown on top of old stuff. Istanbul with it's population of more than 14 million is bigger and has grown and changed more than anything. Sure if you dig you can find old stuff, but that will never change the fact that Istanbul is a giant metropolis...

If China finances it. They will probably have Chinese prisoners do the labour. But if Iran finances it, you can have Pakistani and Iranian labour force do it. And they will likely spend the money in Iran and Pakistan.

I believe it's very important that Pakistan expands on the trade routes and also tries to work on a gas/oil export pipeline with Iran and China to bypass the issue of Hormuz as we've seen. US Blockade is just as hurtful to Iran export as it hurts the neighbours.

I prefer believing that the seeker found the vessel within it's range mid course or terminal phase and adjusted accordingly and hit the boat. That alone would make Tayfun a very useful missile.

I'd really like it if Ukraine would send some of their drone specialist to perform against our AD systems, and get their input on how we could improve on them. It'd be really awesome if we could deliver some Tolga systems to Ukraine.

This isn't good. I think it's necessary to identify any external forces pulling strings.

I think digging a trench wide and deep and flooding it with water would be an ideal way to create a human made boundary. Ideally all the way from the Sea. if it's wide enough perhaps people can use it for fishing. Granted I am not thinking of any enviromental impact that may make it a bad idea. ;P

I think it's fine to go ahead with Canadas reactor. We were originally trying to get Canada, Japan, SK reactors, but our politicians screwed up things and they pulled out. I assume Canada is trying again because we let Canada managed the gasfield in the Black Sea or something like that. The...

Yes I agree that we need diverse group of aircrafts for different purposes. Unlike how F16 and F4 were pretty much the only fighterjets we had. These planes have different functionality and I believe that if we do not siversify our fleet. We'll be abusing them for everything. Especially because...
