My own opinion. TB3 has 170hp engine and if it can carry 280kg with this engine, you can extrapolate what you can achieve with 225 hp and 305 hp engines and my estimates are rough but conservative. Also consider that you don't have to load same amount of fuel for every mission, you can cut down...

No matter what combination of aircraft you can have on TCG Anadolu it is absolutely necessary to take a weapons system to its full capability as it expands the envelope of Navy's capabilities and also it is offered as an exports product to foreign navies. So as a product it needs to have its own...

They can always modify the TB3 to make it work for new purposes as long as the modification does not change its major characteristics by a big margin. TEI is making the higher power engines based on the same original engine block geometry and to fit in the same nacelle space so you can replace...

Whatever the ambassador said, we do want to maximize our strength and our sphere of influence.

I care for the truth and not how things look on the surface.

Yes it hit the dirt but that dirt is a pile of dirt with like a meter of height, if it weren't there the missile could hit the white.

This can't be called a miss

Nobody wants to confront the US 101. Instead they play the long game and wait until the US collapses under its own weight.

You can't find the leader spirit just anywhere, instead of leading future generations some want to follow the previous generations.

I am an experienced seafarer, I spent four and a half years in the Atlantic, the Pacific, the Baltic, the Mediterranean. I sailed as far as to Hawaii, Alaska, Bermuda, Azores, Panama Canal, North sea, practically most of NATO regions. One and a half years as a radio officer receiving weather...

I read that large aircraft carriers can survive sea state 9. However from 60.000 ton to 100.000 ton displacement carriers gain like 55% more operability in adverse weather. While survivable is one thing operable is another. Different sea regions have different characters so you've got to know...

In this latest video I see some sea state 4 but we still need to see sea state 5 to chill.

I see sea state 3 at least at later sorties; breaking waves with white foam is no less then state 3. A state 5 sorti should be achievable without much risk. I wonder how much weather the ship will risk sailing but the TB3 can not fly. Like if the ship can sail at sea state 6 but TB3 can fly at...

TB3 will probably do adverse weather test sorties on TCG Anadolu after every other test is done as it will be the riskiest. Also full payload and adverse weather means the riskiest. I think TB3 should handle sea state 4 already and be looking at sea state 5.

They should put TOGG in games ha.

We call it heroism, and we call our soldiers our heroes. You are stretching my words, taking risks does not mean expandable, you don't want to face pilot shortage in any case so why waste pilots. The new breed of fighters can be made to operate with an easy pilot workload and you can train...

How many pilots, one? If the pilot will not take risk his life for the mission maybe it is time for him to find a desk job.

When you look at the history of ejection seats even Romania made ejection seats at some point in time. Thinking Türkiye won't be able to make ejection seats is absurd. It may not be 100% up to par but it can be 85% at least for an initial breed. Going into the era of optionally manned fighters...

Have you heard any news, what makes you think so? When you want to make 500+ planes you want to make your own seat. It can be a little lacking as it will be a new development but you can always improve and make it competitive.

I believe in single seat and double seat light sport aircraft (or Ultralight) helicopters and airplanes as they are more affordable and have easier regulations to comply with. Aircraft have similar operational requirements like automobiles but are more stringent. Airworthiness certification...
