It has been "inside Turkey territory" since 1453 and rest assured will not belong to anyone else for a long time. And middle of ocean? Looks like someone slept through his geography classes :crazy:
One should ask himself/herself a few questions
-- What is the "news" in this article if there is any.
-- Who does this article target for audience
-- What is the purpose
I don't get it. How are high school kids supposed to hunt drones? Is the government going to be distributing AA missiles to schools now or perhaps sophisticated EW equipment? Also don't you guys think that the techniques emloyed to hunt/hijack into drones should be kept secret? If it really is...
Exactly, idiots probably don't know that companies like Aselsan, Roketsan ...etc were created after 1974 arms ambargo on Turkey. Aselsan specifically started with with less than 20 employees assembling walkie talkies. I guess they can't believe the long way we have come and I can't really blame...
Turkey has developed it's own alterntive for hellfire named UMTAS. In the latest exibition a modified version dedicated to be used on UAV were shown. Also AFAIK Cirit missile can be used as a cheaper/lighter alternative.
I don't have 30 posts so cannot attach pics directly but here are some...
The two differences I see is that the cockpit window is concave up in Shahed-278 and concave down in Bell. Also the addition of horizontal stabilizer near tail rotor. Besides these details they look identical to me too.
As far as I know US refused to sell MOP (Massive Ordnance Penetrator) to Israel which is needed to destroy some of underground enrichment labs so I doubt israel can launch a successfull attack all alone.
Looks like some of our persian friends including those pretending to be Egyptian are dislexic and cannot read ... Where did I see the exact same trolling ?? Oh yes in the main ANKA thread.

I think this is a very short sighted comment.
1-First of all, this ship can only carry so many troops. You can't even invade a 3rd world country with a few hundred marines. If you think this ship will be used to conquer any distant country you are very wrong. The most it can do is act as a...
I am by no means knowledgeable on this topic. However, AFAIK PAC-3 can only intercept missiles in terminal phase, that is, the last ~30 seconds of impact with it's limited range. In order to protect istanbul or Ankara, the missiles will have to be engaged in midcourse or earlier phases which...
I am afraid that is boloney. Turkey does not operate patriots. As far as I know, there isn't a single personnel in Turkey who is trained to use these systems. How long do you reckon it would take to train 2000 Turkish personnel to operate these systems? Even if they pass through a few months of...
Not all 737s have winglets. I know for sure the -600 series (and maybe -900) don't have them either.
To quoate a link which I cannot post here (< 15 posts):
The Wedgetail AEW&C design is based on a hybrid 737 airframe, combining the -600 fuselage and -700/800 wing.
So it may as well be an...
A literal translation wouldn't make any sense but a loose translation is as follows:
My brothers are always with me, within friends
Is there a friend not with me in every breath I take
It actually does :) Their intention is most clear from the footnote
"Dostlara selam Olmedik hala yasiyoruz!" which translates to "hello to friends. We are not dead but alive!"
These kinds of groups live on publicity. What they do is deface websites and submit them on internet lists for...
They might very well be Turkish. Internet is full of these "script kiddies". I administer servers for a living and god knows how many times my public servers come under attack (sometimes several hundered/day). From the looks of it, seems like buch of kids trying to make a name for themselves. I...
TR.1 I think you are confusing UMTAS with cirit. UMTAS is an anti-tank MISSILE designed to take on MBT's and as you have mentioned, it can lock-on a tank's infrared signiture.
Cirit is simply a 70'' ROKCET with a semi-active laser guidance, not infrared. Target can be "designated" from many...
Captured terrorists say as soon as they hear the sound of cobras, they stop whatever they are doing and start running for their life. These cobras, even without a single bullet, save lives.
There is a branch of TUBITAK named BILGEM (Bilisim ve Bilgi Guvenligi ileri teknolojiler arastirma merkezi). I have also heard of a "genelkurmay elektronik harp daire baskanligi" but can't find any info on it.
