BMC CEO: "Armor systems will be further strengthened in Altay T2 and the turret will become unmanned in T3. Later, unmanned turret/chassis autonomous Altays will come"

Please do not go for politics, i dont think it is because of election as i remember our army allways loaded tanks to ships in this position. We have to show pipi of tanks to say look we are here, you know... So Altay is new born baby for TAF of course we have to show that pipi, look it is my son!

Mr. Kozan also mentions that Altay barely fits(I am paraphrasing) but it is a easy fix that could be done without a problem.

But isn't there difference between operating LHD and LST? In LST, should be ready to land on soil as LST board to the beach. On the other hand, Tanks are loaded to a landing craft before the landing. Like this

What is election propaganda, Making and LHD and loading it with tanks, or what.
Mate I have no problem with that
I just asked why do they think it is a propaganda video

My take on the matter is clear and that it is the president's right to promote his achievements just like how the opposition promote his failures

They had a point that the barrel was way too elevated but that is fine if it is just for propaganda video as I truly thought that the Altay couldnt fit through TCG Anandolu gates, that is it

True we will wait and see how they manage in the future... but even if they transfer Altays from LHD to LCT i think they will go same way.
