    200 USD Quadcopter shot down by 3 Million USD Patriot Missile

    As lasers or guided bullets are still not entirely developed and integrated - I guess this is why we still need AA guns in the 21st century :D ?

    Can Turkey become a "Superpower"?

    Thank you for your analysis. This was exactly my point. I see Turkey as the pioneer to have the ability to unite Turkic and some Muslim nations. That's the reason why I made this poll. As I see around 90% of the people who commented here didn't even read my thread post. Nobody is asking if...

    Turkish Peace Operations in Syria (Operation Olive Branch) Updates & Discussions

    No, the overall picture actually looks much brighter than what you have described. Because you have also fallen in the traps of demonizing any policy made by Erdogan. That's why you can't stay objective in any matter. I thought you were more reasonable. Yemen is not our borders, and we didn't...

    Turkish Peace Operations in Syria (Operation Olive Branch) Updates & Discussions

    I don't agree with your analysis. I think you forget many things in your analysis. In the initial plan, surely the replacement of Assad was the plan, but this plan would not be achieved singlehandedly, since you would have Russia and Iran on your neck at the same time. This is why Turkey tried...

    Can Turkey become a "Superpower"?

    We must think much deeper than of which you said. I don't like this thread to become a Syrian war thread, we already have one. But I must just mention, Turkey do not support SAA or YPG, we only suppport some brigades within FSA. We accomplished great things as creating a buffer zone between ISIS...

    Can Turkey become a "Superpower"?

    This thread will not be about Syrian war and Turkey's role in it I will reply shortly to your question. NATO didn't have any interest in stopping the criminal terrorist Assad, who slaughtered more than 300.000 of his own people. Erdogan did, many times, invite NATO forces to intervene and stop...

    Can Turkey become a "Superpower"?

    Thanks for your honest opinion, but my question was not whether Turkey is a superpower or not, surely it's no superpower as I stated. I was asking if Turkey possesses the potential of becoming a superpower (not in the near future) but in 30+ years? I stated some arguments on why I think Turkey...

    Can Turkey become a "Superpower"?

    I'd rather say both Russia and Turkey realized that there were no point in being enemies, since it reduced both countries economies and security - especially when NATO countries are against both Turkey's and Russia's strategies in Syria.

    Can Turkey become a "Superpower"?

    The majority of Turks doesn't want to join EU any longer. Polls reveal that around 68% doesn't want to join EU, 23% is in favor of joining EU and there are around 9% that are in doubt. 60% of the questionnaires think that the reason why EU has double standards towards Turkey is because Turks...

    Can Turkey become a "Superpower"?

    All of what you just have uttered are gibberish and trash talk. Nothing worth replying. Have a good day hillbilly.

    Can Turkey become a "Superpower"?

    You're really a laughing stock right now. Your comments are false and untrue, and you utter them as if you have any single knowledge about Turkey's indigenous programmes. I mentioned Turkey's indigenous programmes in my first post, re-read them, and google it out. Surely, we do get assistance...

    Can Turkey become a "Superpower"?

    Wow, that was some accumulated anger burst.. Phew.. Which Muslim country do you think is strongest? If you look anywhere from military personnel to navy to air force to land force Turkey will take the lead. If you look at all the ongoing indigenous military programmes, yet again, incomparably...

    Can Turkey become a "Superpower"?

    If you are getting your information from globalfirepower, then I can tell you that they are not updated. Turkey has 27 frigates, and you're right about them not being destroyer class, I guess to be destroyer class they must surpass 7.000 tonnes. Turkish frigates are though not light frigates as...

    Turkey starts building ´world´s longest suspension bridge´

    Amazing, I'm really proud of my nation. Against all odds, neighbors that are all in somewhat crisis (Greece, Ukraine (over Black Sea), Bulgaria, Iraq, Syria, Iran, Azerbaijan, Armenia) Turkey is managing to (almost) get unaffected.

    Can Turkey become a "Superpower"?

    Thank you for your analysis, much appreciated. Do you think the world has any Superpower today? Or would you rather argue that Superpower was up until the 90's and early 00's and now even US is not a Superpower but great power.

    Can Turkey become a "Superpower"?

    Well frankly I guess most can agree that the world has currently officially only 1 super power. USA has full control over all of the world's oceans and seas, and is the single strongest military entity in the world. China and Russia combined would still be less of a power compared with US...
