So Guys what is the current size of Turkish Armed Forces I mean Army and Navy and Air Force ? Also do you have any future plans to increase or decrease the size ?

complete size of the armed forces is around 700.000 and decreasing because conscription periods are getting shorter and shorter.

It was 18 months then it became 15 months and now it's 12 months

Some cool photos form an Army Control Station near the Turkish-Iranian border line...

50 Cal. M2 HB Browning fire from the observation tower

Interesting, but they are still using the gool-ol' 30 cal. Browning M1919 A4 and A6 model MGs in some control points and stations from the the south-eastern parts of Turkey because of their fire superiority. (also in M48/M60 as co-axial MG)

@-DENO- we'll use those M1919A6s until the end of times because that's how long it'll take MKEK to make a new LMG

That outpost ( meydan), has builded 2 years ago. It is 3055 m high ( higher then uludag 512 m) at the top of a mount by the border iran. There is a pkk camp just 3 or 4 km across. last mount 3 times they had been visited by terorist coming from that camp, and they defended border lethal way. Terorists have lost many men there. But becouse they come from iran and just nearby an iran outpost, we dont hear too much about. One of the most powerful outposts of KKK. and frankly one of the most diciplined one too. ( if there is a hear that "some group terrorists are coming to meydan" ; commanders say : " no problem, we wish.." )
