    Chinese drones hunt Turkish drones in Libya air war

    The last 2 posts are misleading the conversation. The news is that the opposition rebels are getting Chinese drones for themselves while the government has Turkish ones. It's more of a political view point rather then a technological comparision. UAE vs Turkish funding etc. No need for chest...

    Turkey’s S-400 vs F-35 dilemma in 2019

    Turkey would prefer (imo) her airforce to be top notch but also to have a decently deterrent defense system in place. At the moment the SAM's are very old but they're being replaced. Turkey is not ready if a full force CAATSA hits her. In 5 years or so though, it won't effect us militarily -...

    Turkish Naval Programs

    Any details that you can give regarding this? Oh? I was under the impression that a batch of 4 were the only ones to be manufactured. Are we planning more batches?

    Altay & Turkish Main Battle Tank Programs

    The only question that it fails to answer is "why is the project running so late at THIS STAGE of the programme". The other questions are answered fully and with details not really heard before. So i think your dismissal doesn't apply here.

    Teknofest 2019

    From what I could find on the internet Bournemouth air show gathered only 700k people in 2018. So they actually used the maximum number of attendees the festival ever got to compare. I'm more impressed now that I've seen them do this. It's such a great move creating Teknofest. We finally have a...

    Turkish Directed Energy Weapons

    Hmm, this is a very clever use of laser systems (the downing of the UAV). What would be even better is to have groups of these vehicles, lets say 15 or so in every group. Create the software so the lasers on every vehicle can be synchronized on the same spot. 15x the speed so you could use this...

    Turkish Geopolitics/ Foreign Affairs

    Here's the article in full (it's behind a paywall) ; he Turks are nothing if not fighters. Ottoman invaders got as far as Vienna in 1683, to the terror of Christian Europe. Fast forward to Gallipoli in 1915-16, where the Turks repulsed a huge Allied landing, one of their commanders being Kemal...

    Turkish Industry, Science and Technology

    Probably a type of laser weapon - I remember Aselsan doing G2A tests using lasers. OR maybe the railgun projects have mature a bit more and this is that.

    Turkish Aviation Programs

    Is that an Atak - 2 mockup? It looks good enough to be a prototype from this picture. Also, damn - that's a beast.

    Turkey says S-400 procurement 'done deal'

    The US is behaving weirdly for the last couple of years - even before Trump. They've managed to alienate most of the world and even lose Turkey. In the long term this is going to bite them in the *** - it already led to the EU forming their own army (PESCO) which will inevitably lead to less...

    Turkey’s S-400 vs F-35 dilemma in 2019

    Both, Turkey want's an exception for the S-400 for the time being. If she's satisfied that her membership is valued in NATO that would probably be the end of it. If she feels that NATO barely tolerates her (S-400 or not) then Turkey will seek the least resistant path for full independence from...

    The first phase of the MİLGEM project ends

    Does anyone have more in depth knowledge about the TF-2000? Like what's the current status of the project - is it under design or are they waiting for the radar and other tech to catch up before they design the ship. Also, related, whats the status of ÇAFRAD atm? I remember tests being done a...

    TF-X Turkish Fighter & Trainer Aircraft Projects

    Yep, my bad - i meant the Hürjet. I was hoping smaller jets could use the landing strip to take off but it looks like that's not possible, too bad :( Shameless plug :) But I've done a very basic comparision on the combat radiuses of some fighters with the T-FX ; The F-16 and F-35 because we...

    TF-X Turkish Fighter & Trainer Aircraft Projects

    I want to derail the conversation a bit to the Hürkuş. Now that the specs and expectations from the T-FX is more or less intact, it's becoming increasingly obvious that this is going to be a big bird. Since we're not going to be able to probably buy and F35B's, and even if we did they will...

    Turkey’s S-400 vs F-35 dilemma in 2019

    I wonder how effective the transfer is? If it's about the missiles being used that will be a huge boon for us - the radar systems, while still being useful, we could do without.

    Trump: Turkey was not treated fairly

    You know that's actually pretty clever of the US (while still being a huge dick move nonetheless). Instead of letting Russia create rifts and headaches between your partners - you outright make it very costly for them to sell their equipment - which will lead said equipment to be rendered way...

    Assadists kill/injure several Turkish soldiers in Idlib/Hama

    Well quite literally the US has stationed her soldiers on the battlefield to be used as deterrents and is daring everyone including Turkey to touch them. Yes, we're independent on some issues - but even if we were 100% independent no one is going to attack the US unless their country is already...

    Assadists kill/injure several Turkish soldiers in Idlib/Hama

    It sounds like we're both saying the same thing here right? I'm not sure I agree with this part though, every imperialist country in the war is against any action Turkey makes in the area, by this logic how can you define Turkey jumping in bed with other imperialists? You COULD say that...
