    The problem is the Turks now don't have an engine or a cannon anymore since they pissed the Germans off so bad Rheinmetall and MTU pulled out. Much like the T-129 the project is essentially dead in the water quite possibly until Erdogan either steps down or gets replaced. Don't get me wrong had...

    And again, you have several people tell you (some with actual industry experience) that's not how it works.

    https://www.defenceconnect.com.au/land-amphibious/6158-european-conglomerate-commence-initial-mgcs-architecture-study Prabowo should look into this compared to the Altay. If we REALLY want to have a different MBT without shooting ourselves in the foot again with non-standardized vehicles then...

    You only need the source code if you're trying to integrate it to something else, not to fire missiles.

    I'll answer it with a question, if you need launch codes to launch missiles, then how did Pakistan launch their AMRAAMs at the Indians over Kashmir? Also, a Javelin isn't THAT advanced to the point you'd need US codes to fire them. That's just retarded and Alman shouldn't be writing stuff like...

    If they wanted something more advanced than the 2RI's we already have we can always just go back to Rheinmetall for their MBT Advanced Technology Demonstrator concept, which essentially a Revolution package Leo 2 on roids. Arguably it would be cheaper too compared to buying a new platform...

    "Rencana pembelian pesawat canggih buatan Amerika Serikat (AS), Bell-Boeing MV-22 Osprey, oleh Kementerian Pertahanan Republik Indonesia (Kemenhan RI), ternyata belum terealisasi. Malahan, Kemenhan menyebut belum ada rencana pembelian pesawat canggih yang sudah diperkenalkan pada 2007 silam." I...

    Tbf it's likely not going to come before 2022. Tankers take priority over an AWACS as it seems.

    Personally, it's not a bad idea. I'd rather Airbus offer a A320 based family of multimission aircraft than the C-295 family. Would give them a competitive edge towards Boeing and their E-7/P-8. Plus, when it comes to AWACS it's mostly subsystems that matters. If Airbus's radar solution can give...

    It is but in the context of standardization it's better to just get more Leopard 2's.

    The Altay is literally dead in the water as a result of Erdogan's shenanigans much like their T129 program. If we really do need more tanks just buy more from Germany. This plan makes absolutely ZERO sense.

    Scratch, since it's a project made in conjunction with DISLITBANG.

    It's not the gun, it's the mounting. One of the companies I used to work for was given a contract to make a minigun mount for the Mi-17's. The gun itself is a Profense M134.

    I originally didn't want to reply, but @Gen3115 and Striver told me to anyways, so here we go. Although yes, the Flankers do have a more diverse suit of weaponry and support equipment, keep in mind that their quality is generally inferior compared to their Western counterparts. Without going...

    To be fair, I did write up why the Typhoon isn't that bad of a choice, just not a very good one and would only be good if they were bought new WITH Airbus offset packagaes. Regardless, the Air Force is heavily leaned towards supporting American made aircraft; much as the Navy is leaned towards...

    Now why can't we apply the same line of thinking when it comes to our national projects?

    No, since all I said was what do you think the new annex is for? Not once did I say "hurr durr bigger embassy = close relations!!", you said that. You're grasping at straws my guy. BTW, you just proved that I'm right by speculating what the annex was likely for. So in your own words, you're...
