Azerbaijan is not that resource wealthy, specially compared to Arab states, Azerbaijan's defense budget is only 2 bil with 1 billion going towards procurement, and Azerbaijan generally manages to do a lot with such budget. However Navy is expensive, a single Milgem or Istanbul class will cost...

There are few projects for increase and complete modernization of the navy. Coast Guard is already getting Sa'ar 72 which will feature Israel's latest anti-ship missiles, and Barak-8s, making it the only vessel in the Caspian with medium range air cover. Navy itself is considering a wide range...

you call Turkish foreign policy flexible? Turkey spent 2.5 bil on S-400s and is now asking US to deploy Patriots. That's not flexible, that's stupidity. One day US will get tired of Turkey switching its policy and leave Turkey to be by itself to deal with its problems. Erdogan's determination...

President has confirmed a large deal between Azerbaijan and Italian Leonardo https://president.az/articles/35891

Erdogan is a moron when it comes to foreign policy, here is another 180 turn in his policy and moving back towards US.

Except many countries use F-18 without an aircraft carrier, so Boeing already has experience making versions of F-18 not requiring additional equipment for the catapult.

why not? if countries such as Singapore can purchase F-35Bs, then India should be able to aswell unless US is worried about future S-400s in India

Why not just go for F-35B?

nightmare for who? the closest rivals of Egypt are Turkey and Israel, Turkey has 200+ BVR capable fighters and a powerful economy, if these relations improve with US, which I think they will with recent tensions with Russia in Syria, Turkey will get an additional 100 F-35s, and additional 12 B...

with the level of technology present in todays ship that would not be possible unless you also switch out radars and other sensors, also its not just anti-ship missiles, there are air defense missiles, engines and etc. The only way to reduce dependence is to invest into your own industry...

Except such policy doesn't make sense, all these purchases you have made from the West are still vulnerable to political pressure from US, and Western equipment, specially ships share many foreign components, even if a single country blocks sales of parts or weapons, your navy will be heavily...

will the existing Ataks be upgraded?

Syria is a proxy war, it only took a small Russian force to assist their side, with Iran, there will be a full US force dominating the skies and the seas. Russians can't do anything about that, and neither can China. Like I said, Russia will just enjoy high energy prices, why would they want to...

Lol what powerful countries? The most powerful one of them all would already be in the conflict, and the rest are allied with US, a blockade will just force those allies to enter the conflict along side USA, right now NATO ships are already in Strait of Hormuz due to harassment of oil tankers by...

you make it sound like that's such an easy task, do you realize closing the Strait of Hormuz will turn not just the entire region but most of the world against Iran? Closing the Strait of Hormuz is not a realistic card unless Iran wants to go to war with the entire region.

speed?
