    Turkiye should strengthen its autonomy within NATO, but this should not be in progress as Russia's interests. Turkiye has shown that it will remain neutral on this issue and this actually more than enough. This tension is basically a familiar form of power game in the region that benefits both...

    So, without even needing a catapult, you can carry it in a case behind a pickup in a simple metal frame, set it up in minutes and launch it over the same pickup. Asymmetric loitering system :)

    I would say it is very difficult, practically impossible. Anyway, I don't think that Mr. Yazıcıoğlu will be in such a situation at least in the near future. As for the other issue, MHP, IYIP, Zafer etc., they formed nationalist block votes in various segments. Some of them appealed to the...

    Mehmet Kemal Yazıcıoğlu, the son of the late Governor Recep Yazıcıoğlu, who was probably one of the most beloved civil servants in recent Turkish history and remains one of the symbols of the bureaucracy after all these years, was elected mayor of Tokat with 55% of the votes. If Recep Yazıcıoğlu...

    Autonomous drones with AESA radar and IFF interrogators in their avionics package, capable of engaging in close air combat carrying air-to-air missiles, will radically change all doctrinal approaches in combat aviation.

    The T-625 should have already started to be derived as a light-medium naval utility/ASW helicopter, similar to the AW159 Wildcat concept. It may not be as heavy-duty as the Seahawks, but we could have solved this by inducting it into the inventory in much larger numbers. Ministries can wait a...

    TR Development Road (Dry Canal) Initiative: Turkish-Arab logistics and economic development vision

    The planned (or at least speculated) Turkish naval base in Qatar, which can be considered as the next big step after the Qatar Turkish Joint Joint Force Command, can also be seen as part of this grand vision. In time, the states of the Arabian peninsula will also be integrated into this railroad...

    TR Aircraft Carrier and Amphibious Ship Programs

    Due to the escort requirement of two LHDs (and one Carrier If all goes as hoped), I believe that by the mid-2030s, the combat fleet will need more than 24-25 destroyers and frigates. Not only by Carier task forces, but also the naval forces will expanding their footprint with other activities...

    IMHO, for its own geopolitical and socio-historical reasons, Turkiye cannot develop an alliance based on complete and total sincerity with either the US or Russia. In order for Turkiye to develop an alliance with these countries, it can only proceed by accepting their dominant positions from the...

    Another historic milestone. We owe a lot to the team's determination despite all the difficulties along the way. I wish the derivative marine variant for navy ships was being developed simultaneously.

    I love the flexible payload approach in the design of this ship. Although we have seen some changes in the superstructure, especially in the main mast, the design approach has never compromised this. The current one has almost the capacity of a mini-LPD. Multiple containers capacity and power...

    I think the key statement in this post is that 'for the first time our F-16s have refueled with the A330 MRTT'. I hope we will see hundreds more, but of course not with a French Air Force plane.

    It would be beneficial for the relations to be more cordial for the KSA to take the step to realize the 5-ship MILGEM project, which was canceled at the last moment when all the details of the agreement had been agreed upon, and which also offered the possibility of co-production, which no other...
