Americans are pressuring Pakistan too, it is not only up to Turkey to make the Atak deal with Pakistan happen.

Yes ,we should ask italian side leonardo to push us senate about the sale. One of the biggest winners in this deal will be italian side, since the provide still quite considerable amount of componenets in temrsof cost. Additionally,US engine producer should make a press too.
However, US is trying to side with indians !! indians have support of israel lobby and many senator try to make india another power against china!!

I say all the time what I think. This behavior of us against Pakistan is due indians' Israeli lobby . US senators can not decide which is right for their country. They act per lobbies requests not per their country's good. India is in the side of Russia and bought s-400 for example. Additionally, Kamala Harris mother is indian. She is there by Israeli support also.

At this point I am not sure we need T-929, at least a manned version. Need for attack helicopters is decreased with the use of UCAVs. I think we should consider developing unmanned version of attack helicopters.

My friend using helicopters is not a easy job you need to see your environment very good using a unmanned helicopter is a both bad and unnecessary idea

Attack Helicopters are still crucial in modern battlefields for close air support, anti tank and escort missions, the incidents in Ukraine are just telling us one thing that the Russians have crap countermeasure-systems, really bad avionics and last but not least outdated doctrine.

As a Infantry or Tank member a Attack Helicopter is one of those things i wouldn't want to face in a war.

An intimidating T-929 with a 30mm cannon and tons of deadly ammunition! This is the chopper Turkish Army has been longing for. for decades. So does the Navy, especially after the Anadolu. T-129 is and will only be an interim solution for Turkey’s Armed Forces!

T-129 has a future in the arsenal of a military force in search for an interim or affordable solution. There are other alternatives though, look into this one;


EDIT: Sorry bro, replied to wrong post.

Turkish ATAK II is suposed to make her first flight in March 2023 (10 months from now)

Ain't it strange that we only have seen a mock up and not an assembly line like that of Hurjet?

How long does it take to assemble a helicopter (same with TFx that is suposed to hangar roll out in March)

Industry 4.0, 5G net, digitalization and and a huge 3D printer makes things much faster.
