Not the point, the deal involves ToT and is a JV. Wasn't TAI founded as a JV?

TAI founded as a JV and US taught us How to assemble the F-16 blocks. 45 years after TAI founded, TAI started revealing own competitive products. I mean “JV” is not a thing like you imagine. US and European manufacturers are mostly forming JV institutes to get more deal. Thanks to their JV institutes, They are securing $ not only product itself but also the local assembly workshare for their own components. While the gears are turning like that in trade mechanism, The members like you believe “We can produce this or that” but In fact, You are producing almost nothing so you should better keep your Arabian dreams out of threads that was opened to discuss the matters related with Turkish defense industry.
