They drop flares more often now, prolly based on intel. If there was an attempted shootdown we'd see a missile go up + I doubt they'd be so quick to rush back in. The attack heli that was shot down happened in border area, somewhat away from clashes, aka deliberate attempt to draw in and ambush.

Think IS is doing similar action to Mosul, give up easy fight on countryside and draw in for urban warfare. Although Mosul is ofc way bigger. Won't be easy. I still hope they flee towards Raqqa and do their final stand there.

So what type of bomb is that? What would GBU equivalent be?

How are they able to clarify the jets are Turkish and not general coalition jets?

They rigged a handgrenade to a phantom and tried to fly it in to barracks. Multiple Syrian groups have experimented with tying light diy loads to phantoms and dropping them from above the battlefield. IS is using boobytrapped drones as a diy UCAV and multiple Turkish soldiers were wounded by...

They need to spread that stuff out immedately, multiple civilian drones have been brought down in recent weeks. Pretty sure they're gonna use them to attack with mortars as well.

I read that the Republicans won on all three fronts though, the house/senate/congress(?). So it's more internal power curbing rather than democrat vs republican.

It's not about corruption for them, it's about power. It's about doing business. They've got this 'mahalle' mindset and bring it over on the worldstage, acting like damn fools and only embarrassing themselves. But they and their followers think ''wow, he said one minute!!''. Have you ever seen...

No one is perfect, everyone is corrupted in one way or another. But notice how I in my original post I said that there is a difference in 'needing to equate x elements' and destroying them. I grew up in an environment pure Kemalists would probably hate, and despite the fact that everyone around...

This is from yesterday; - Reports of another airstrike on a different group in Tunceli, results to be determined during area inspection I guess. - Few attacks on outposts with some killed and captured (low numbers), 1 soldier kia because of mortar attacks, looks like they're trying to optimize...

Necessary evil? Please. Big difference between trying to equate kemalist elements to prevent coup and trying to neutralize them for your own good. Only difference keeping us sane in the region were and still are the kemalists who care about the country rather than their own pockets! Sometimes...

This OP hasn't failed yet but AKP foreign policy is and has been fucking shambles for years. And if they continue to do their magnificent ''strategic thinking'' they're going to **** this OP as well.

Me thinks US wants to pressure IS on all ''three'' fronts, that is in Mosul as well as Raqqa area's. However they know that directly moving on Raqqa is not easy and will bring on more headache in the long term, which they've consistently ignored cause they prefer to work with the PKK, and thus...

Operations in Sirnak, Bestler-Dereler area, ~20 killed in last days as well as ~1300 kg anfo captured. Official statement made by governor. Also interior ministry has started to give weekly updates about operations, in addition to military doing daily updates.

BTR's are in use by the Jandarma, afaik they mostly get used in/near bases and 'traffic stops/searches' and not so much on patrol/active duty.

SF officer was killed due to mortar/small arms fire, not atgm hit. Different events.

Didn't they both claim it? It could be ISIS trying to take advantage of inner termoil, especially after that bastard leader of theirs told them to attack inside Turkey. Keep in mind they also claimed they killed the civilian fire chief of Incirlik (American) but nothing came of it.

Beyler, yurtdisina ikinci kara harekati yapacakmiyiz?

Hahaha, it's from an international/NATO(?) training exercise abroad couple months ago :). After this he lets them climb inside via his knee
