Current TB2 can't developed more with it's current body... This is it's limit...
It's advantage was always the price anyway... A ''much better'' TB2 is the AKINCI.
Well, I don't wanna be rude, but if you paid for Rafales without Meteors and Scalps (You paid for them unlike F16s) than you got... how to say without being rude... ''overcharged''
PS; Russia might not be so different, just saying... Be careful and don't get ''overcharged'' again...
Size? This are jets, their most powerful side is their high tech avionics... And Russians quite behind of all EU in that matter.
PS; That's why some Pakistani F-16s kicked out several SU-30s of Indian Air force out of the Pakistani Airspace without even sweating... You know, ''AMRAAM Dodgers''...
That makes sense... This F16 without AMRAAMs, sitting ducks as fighters anyway... But why no Rafale? This are good fighters, with METEOR anything better than what Russia could offer...
Egypt probably has most weird air force in entire region or even world... You can see French Rafales and Mirage 2000s, American F16s, Russian Mig-29s... Now are they gonna buy Mig-35s and Su-35s?
In peace time, you can find spare parts, no problems but it will be a nightmare in a total war. And...

This is the Turkish intention. Same will apply Somalia and our other brother countries I hope. Of course it will be via invitation, and resources will be used for the said countries... No more resources for the colonists...
Short answer is; no. Long answer is; noooooooo.
Jokes aside, we are not european, we are not asian neither, we are Turks. The only thing that really matters.
I don't drink. Did I hit a nerve? It is funny because This example I told was the my less violent solution, I went more violent for some other problems in my university years...
You live in Turkey I know, perhaps you experienced a realty check from one of my brothers, who knows...
We are a reflection a mirror that you will see yourself, my friend. We must speak accordingly how others treats us. In that case, if you or any other nations - individuals on the earth cross the line, they must get their answer. This is the realty check, maybe you didn't like it, god knows this...
EU sanctions... Nice joke. This same EU would have disregard Iran's sanctions in a moment if US wasn't the one who prevent them. They love business, EU is not a threat.
But even if what you say is true, like you said we will have cheap energy anyway. After Libya East Mediterranean gas will be...
Like I said in both ways it is a win win. Once we save Libya, we will rebuilt it and high oil prices will give them an advantage. Therefore an advantage for the Turkish Industry.
PS; If we look at to America's Number of patients I wouldn't say it will over in 2 months... China is in obscurity...
