Construction of first FAC55 will start this year.
Bro, TTFAC is not FAC55 anymore. It has changed a lot;

- Foremost change is the propulsion, switched to CODAG from COGAG,

- Then displacement, it was increased by some margin, TN has requested expansion.

- Maximum speed was lowered etc.

I think we will see the design in the second quarter. Some of the engineering jobs are finalized in Q1.

Which weapons will it have apart from Atmaca? Which radar or other type of electronics will it use?

Thats what i tought. Now i have it confirmed :) What does that mean?
Means Turkish type Fast attack craft project.

It is just the project name, once those ships are build they will probably get a name like XXX class FAC. The project name is a general one as the tender to select the type of FAC has not been done yet, there are several shipyards proposing their own models.

FAC55 is the model of STM


General mood in the Turkish navy is to make as much as possible indigenous Turkish, only special items like engines and turbines are usually foreign albeit there are also works going on to have a family of Turkish engines designed build. We seek also "independence" in engines, but that will still take a while until we are were we like to be.

Damn, that's a disappointment. Was really looking forward to a high speed FAC.

Are we then expecting something along the lines of french Combattante FS56 ?

Malaysia's 6x6 armored vehicle tender;
IVECO Defense announced that it will participate in the tender with VBTP-MR Guarani
FNSS had previously won the tender for 257 8x8 armored vehicles of the Malaysian Armed Forces

I don't know why there's even a competition, false hope for Italy :)
Because if you Do not know there is Always Corruption. I mean when there is "Defense announce about procurement" then Companies which have products come "as the tender" to find you and talk with officials and ALWAYS there is APPROACH to BRIBE them. IF they succeed then Phases of procurement is just steps which need to be done but Bribed persons already know who is the Winner

That is why it is not Only to have product not Only it is competitive and Better, But other side of coin as Cheater with Corruption decided many times countries military fate

More like Ada-Class i might say but it is evolving :). And it is somewhere between 45 to 50 knots, topping 55 in calm seas with ease.

Earlier requirement was 55 knots at sea state 3.

Hard to speak exactly about the maximum attainable speed before they conduct towing tank experiments but it is gotta be fast.

Probably Mig-29.

According to savunmasanayist LGBs will be integrated into Chengdu F-7BG. This one came as a surprise to me as we have integrated LGBs to Russian fighters of Azerbaijan but never did an integration study on a Chinese fighter. It seems like defense ties with Bangladesh is deeper than I thought.
