Are the Turkish armed forces gonna join the African lion exercise, or are we talking about the delivery of weapon systems?

Greater baykar effect on the industry. Aselsan will get bigger. Not great for meteksan. Hopefully Sage survives.
Not a great fan of this. Hope I’m wrong.

I don't know if he will remain connected to Aselsan, because Aselsan will have a new president. Now he has to think in general...
he deserve it by making all important projects finish in 2023 as planned before as aesa radar, eots, stealth coating, irst, even the akkor and so on. I really want to see where he can take Turkish tech further, he is the guy that able to make the magic happen

That's what came to my mind immediately too, but might they sanction him too? Isn't entire SSB sanctioned

These US sanctions apply to the job position not the individual themselves. Demir was sanctioned as president of the agency and Haluk will be the same.

According to some Temel Kotil played a role in the departure of İsmail Demir.

Really seems like Demir was demoted. He is now the chairman of a steel producing conglomerate. What a step backwards for a man who did his job well for so many years. Quite sad

The Nigerian Navy signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) with Dearsan Shipyard, for the modernization of its flagship NNS ARADU (F98).
MEKO 360H1 is the oldest MEKO frigate in active service, in fact, the first MEKO built. If Nigeria plans to keep this ship in active service for more than 10 years, I think we should consider modernizing and selling Yavuz class frigates through Dearsan after similar modernization package.

Erdogan several times mentioned that Turkey will make 100% army technology in 2023, and they couldnt finish it as they planned, only Haluk Gorgin finished all the important projects. Engine is still not ready, even though many important steps have been passed. I feel like its the right decision as its normal that after some years being at the same job not being as exited as before, they needed new blood and focus on export. Also, they didnt give attention to chips making

It is ridiculous to say that Haluk achieved everything. For one, his AESA rader is delayed. Probably the most important thing they are working on
Delayed by how long? Couple month? you ask him to make Gan Aesa without ever making an aesa, plus ask him also make gan chips just because you realize nobody will sell it to you.
he make eots, irst, akkor, air defence and so on and all of them are almost ready. Dont get me wring, Ismail Demir did amazing job, but Turkey needs new energy and Gorgun proved himself so time to ink new energy.
