    I am from Bitlis as my nick suggests, as I grew up in the region and I think I can say something about that. A similar peace process just brings destruction and terror once again. But, IF what you say is true (it is really pissed me off btw), there is only one "solution": disarmament without...

    There is no single example we have asked or GE stands the way of exported engines produced by TEI. Not so far at least But TEI can not have the rights of TF35000: By the time TF35000 is ready, there is a possibility that GE might become obstacle. At that point, if we try to nationalize TEI, it...

    From the Pilot: - Aircraft was sending over 10.000 real time data to ground - Test control center consists of 50 engineers from 15 different disciplines. They are able to follow the flight much earlier than I felt or saw. - They gave clearance to me every stage of flight - Following pilot...

    These words has melt my heart. As a former aviation employee and now an academician, I only add that it is such an important and historic breakthrough, I am of course Muslim but by no means a religious man, I took a wow 5 years ago for its maiden flight and dedicated an offering (adak) to hand...

    This news is most welcome. I prefer EF2000 ten times over F35, not for its capabilities, F35 is more capable; but because of diversification. We cannot %90 or so depend on Americans with F35 for next 50 years again And it is not only for political reasons, which all of us know; but also...

    It is not about Palestinians, it is about Iran and Israel. Fingerprints of Iran are all over on this picture. They are talking with Israel: "I will built my nukes. If you dare to touch me, you will never live in peace" Let's see how Israel respond to this conversation. Not to the Palestinians...

    President of the El Salvador, Nayip Bukele is one of the most successful leaders of our time, also a smart man. He turned the most dangerous country in the world (yes, more than Syria and Afghanistan in terms of killing rate) into a much safer, actually the safest in Latin America right now...

    Selçuk Bayraktar last year said Baykar has enough engines for serial production. Last month, he said KE serial production will begin in 2024, I assume they have enough engines for at least LRP. Without radar even Kaan will be useless but I believe Aselsan will sort it out. BTW, I want F35, F22...

    It is called engine my friend, we may not arm hurjet without US approval. Engines are coming for "training purpose aircraft" after all. Also it is not a given that US keep supply F404. If they dont, add 3-4 years to current timeline for twin engine hurjet with tf10k I am not saying KE is our...

    I do believe we need F16s, but it is getting more obvious day by day that it will not be approved before 2025 US election. In that case, first arrivals will come 2028-2029 earliest, 40 of them 2035!. Even if we let sweden join Nato, they may very well find another excuse in the future, blue...

    Our Military had to use other manned helos in Gabar etc. even for the slightest things, sometimes UH 60s. Actually I am very impressed. Even if 5-6 flight hours with full weight and carrying 200 kgs in a 200 km radius, is no joke. Kudos to our engineers

    Like it or not, KE is the only realistic option we have until 2030s. It can not take down F35 or Rafale on its own, but the concept is KE will be cheap and produced in numbers: 5 KE against 1 F35, in terms of cost, production and in the field. It is not impossible BUT, we have to come out with...

    There are a lot of overreactions I see. None of us know the terms of agreement and obviously PAF will not get F110 Kaan either. Is anyone thinking we will give them the source codes of Kaan to anybody? Moreover, Pakistan is a huge country with a nuclear weapons, yes they are failed today but...
