This also mean cheaper Flight Hour than F-16 by attacks on PKK Camps, Armed Anka, T-129 and armed Hurkus will make the Fight against PKK more cost effective ! I read in WAFF that armed Hurkus will be also used to Hunt small Ships in the Aegean with improved UMTAS Misssiles.

Turkish Military need to become Capable to defend it's interest in the eastern Mediteran, meanwhile anounced interest to exploit Gas and Oil Fields around Cyprus. There is a Threat when it comes to Oil that also the US or Europe can come in to Play, for this Reason our Air Force and Land -...
In 5 Years the first Altay MBT will enter in Service, this mean for Cyprus and our southeastern Border our Tank Force must rely on mostly outdatet M-60 A3 and M-48 A5 MBT. In my opinion it could be a good interim Solution to modernize around 200 + M-60 A3 MBT with Add -On Armour, stronger...
Turkic People had foundet many great Islamic Empires and islamic Slave Dynasties, in there Sphere of Influence like south - East Europe and Indian Subcontinent Islam was widespread !
Nationnalism is against the Teachings of Islam ! In Islam all Muslims are Brother no matter if they are black, white, asian or european, The Universe and the whole World does belong to Allah S.W.T. There is no Race which is superior than the other, all characteristics and the Color of the Skin...

If Azerbaijan aquire Altay, Turkey could directly Support it's brother Country by Supplying Amuntion in Case of War ! I also Hope Kazakhstan, Turkmenistan and Kyrgizstan follow to aquire Altay !
Buying some AV-8B Harrier could not make Sense as far turkish Navy does not operate any LHD or Light Aircraft Carrier, the LHD will enter in Service in around 10 Years. In this Time F-35 B is ready to enter in Service !
The small redesign to incooperate Booster Engine is for all Surface launched SOM Variant neccesary ! Look at the Tomahawk for example the are Variant with Different Ranges, the Block II TLAM-A can reach 2500 km. Without an indigenaous Engine we can dream about reaching such Ranges !
BGM-109...
Turkey does not have Intention to built Aircraft Carrier like the french Charles de Gaulles, which is Capable to carry up to 40 Fighter Jets. Turkish Navy seek Capabillities for limited Strike Capabillities far away from turkish Shores for example Balkan and arabian Sea. Not only the LHD alone...
If the Engine will be ready in four Years, this mean Turkey is relying in this Timeframe on foreign Engines ! How is it possible that in 2013 SOM-ER Variant with 1500 km and in 2014 with 2500 km Range will be ready ?
