Many Turkish UAVs were shot down, but I do not question their combat worthiness. I want to see how Russian anti-air systems operated by Russian Army is effective against American UAVs at battlefields. Turkey can't build a turboprop engine for that UAV. Ukrainian engine will be fitted in Akinci...

And you know that's not why I want see them to operate American UAVs. Syrian Civil War and Turkey's offence into Syrian territories could have been rare opportunities to see how effectively Russian air-defense system, especially Pantsir, can deter American UAVs. As far as I know, Turkey has not...

I know the US rejected. However, I've heard news that Turkey at least jointly operates a MQ-1 Predator. Huh, I guess I learn something everyday.

I believe It is a different case. MGCS of Germany & France is a next-generation MBT with a new Rheinmetall cannon and many other new "next-gen" features. I am not sure how many "next-gen" features that Altay MBT brings to the world. The first batch doesn't even have an auto-loader. I guess it is...

I did not say they should stop producing their own UAVs. Turkey requested approval of purchase for Reaper and other American UAVs. I believe Turkey operates only Predator and (Israeli Heron), but I want them to operate other American UAVs and see how do they fare against Russian air-defense...

Exciting time is ahead. I believe the new artillery shells are going to be more like rocket assisted projectiles, no? It is interesting that everyone is heading towards the same direction.

I have not. Exactly why I said tanks also accompany helicopters and UAVs. How could your UAVs effectively perform SEAD missions when your enemy's Stinger is targeting right at you. And of course, there are other enemy aircraft on the sky as well. They won't sit around and do nothing much as your...

The problem is that tanks don't roll alone. They always accompany some counter-air defense systems, helicopters and of course their own fleets of UCAVs. Against rebels and some under-equipped and under-trained army? Yes, it is effective. Against a well-fed, well-equipped, well-trained and highly...

Germany had already attempted to conquer Europe in WWI with their military might and technological advancement and they retained their knowledge, expertise and know-hows to Hitler-era, so they could give it another go. In fact, Germany improved their hardware expertise to the next level even...

Cheers, mate. :cheers: As a techie, I just find those developments fascinating and want to share my thought. No ill-feeling.

Potentially extended to 100km+. Is Germany operating M982 with their fleets of PzH2000? What kind of upgrades they are planning at the moment.

Which proves that attempting to build a proper 5th gen fighter jet is a seriously difficult task. The US had experience from F-22, yet they they still struggle with F-35. Russia is another example. I can't believe some countries without relevant industries think they can design & manufacture a...

Honestly everyone probably saw this coming. I wouldn't say that EW > Stealth. I'd rather say that they complement each other. By the way, Saab has an exceptional record in the industry. I doubt many countries can emulate the success of Saab in radar, electronic warfare and aerospace electronic...

I believe it shows how weak Syrian army is at anti-aircraft warfare and generally how bad Russian air defense platforms are. Then again, Soviet Union & Russia have a history of inflating specs and failing miserably in the actual warfare. It would have been better if the US allowed Turkey to...

Any company can show off a demonstrator that cannot be used for real-world applications. The question whether the final product is reliable, durable and serviceable. The metallurgy has been one of the hard parts where you need to test & collect data by using various alloy or ceramic for each...
