When did you begin to determine what thread is deserving of attention and what is not? Do you really need to derail all my threads with ad hominem attacks at other users? If you dont like the discussion just do not take part in them!
Dear Bayar, the problem is not that we don’t like the discussion, but merely that fact what you are presenting, the way you present these information and most of all that – I would say with a lot of nationalistic fewer included – a normal decent discussion is simply not possible:
You are a presenting completely illusion plans, projects a country like the USA, Russia and China or multinational projects by the EU can barely manage with their budget and their vast expertise and experience and you even more present timelines and a budget, no one with the slightest sense of logic and understanding in aerospace matters would rate possible.
You are presenting lists of projects ranging from stealth fighters, trainers, transports, helicopters, AUVS, UCAVs and carriers that even the biggest aerospace countries have issues to manage and finance and you are presenting them as it would be some sort of plug-and-play.
One has to remember – and that’s not to diminish any Turkish achievements – but a fact: so far Turkey has not developed and fielded any significant major project on their own, none: No combat aircraft, no transport, no helicopter , … in fact NOTHING. All TAI so far has done was participating in local co-production and / or license manufacturing.
So I beg you to stay realistic and accept that there are not few who remain most skeptical on what will ever happen.
These projects – in fact – NONE could be taken seriously.
Even more you are oversimplifying the political background: the current path president Erdogan follows is most likely wrong, this playing one side against the other with the UE, USA and Russia will never ever ease the situation and make such projects even more unlikely to come to fruition. And that’s my third point of concern …
The Soviets were doing this a long time ago. Small STOVL carriers seems to be the trend these days. UK, Japan and now Turkey wants to do it this way.
This was once a time … and is long out … no nation follows the trend of small carriers with small useless VSTOL aircraft like the Yak-38 and -41. And to compare the ambitions by the UK and Japan to field the F-35B with the Yak-38 shows even more how far you off.
Sorry to say so, but to be taken seriously in such a forum – both as a poster and a nation in the fields of aerospace – one has to earn respect and can only be measured by the results, not by endless lists of phantasy projects and fancy PR-CGs.
