    Pilot ejects, is safe after MiG crashes

    I think India needs a better understanding of when to retire certain aircraft and also induct others. The crash rates still seem to be very high compared to other air forces. Especially NATO countries.

    Rumour that Turkey bought a carrier.

    I can see us using this for R&D for our LPD project. Maybe even a operational training ship. However i would like to wait for more info on this matter before speculating any further.

    Turkey soon to decide who wins the multibillion dollar contract.

    It is as a battery not as one vehicle. A SAMP/T battery includes: command and control vehicle, Arabel radar and up to six Transporter Erector Launcher (TEL) vehicles, each with eight missiles and a store of reload missiles. So actually 6x8=48 missiles and the system can launch 16 of them...

    Turkey soon to decide who wins the multibillion dollar contract.

    It would put weight behind the offer if they did. We should pick the tender winner in the next SSİK meeting. Currently we are still evaluating the submissions.

    Turkey soon to decide who wins the multibillion dollar contract.

    Chinese have not said anything about tech transfer of the HQ-9 if they are offering us their export version we might as well pick the Russian offering at that point. MBDA however has offered tech transfer. MBDA also is not a french company but more of a joint European establishment with...

    Turkey soon to decide who wins the multibillion dollar contract.

    Most people point to us picking the European offering the Aster 30 SAMP/T. MBDA is offering us full technology transfers which is what we are looking for the most. The Chinese destroyers look good but we have stopped buying our surface ships from other countries and build them ourselves...

    U.S.A can take down the sold F16 whenever they want

    Possibly. Even if we say did have access to the 40 and 50s we are not at such a capability to integrate anything into these as of yet that is a upgrade to say choosing the CCIP upgrade. We must balance being self efficient without compromising integration of the latest technologies. Only when...

    U.S.A can take down the sold F16 whenever they want

    The source codes are limited and that may not come with the F-35. Like cabatli said only F-4s we have full access to do whatever we want on. There are still limitations on F-16s.

    U.S.A can take down the sold F16 whenever they want

    We are not investing 11 billion that is to buy the aircraft. Which have since jumped to 14-15 billion for our order. Also the tech transfer will be similar to what we got with the F-16. Some parts production and being a international supplier to U.S. companies for F-35 parts. F-35 like the F-16...
