Interesting and long interview with Ukrainian television and Baykar. Interesting part during it was this:


Ukrainians asked $10 million to connect the future Baykar facility to the electric grid and it would take 2 years.
This program is now subtitled in English for those who are interested.

Most likely Indonesia with Malaysia as a close second. Thailand could be a distant 3rd and Vietnam 4th.

Mini drone munitions and small kamikaze drone warheads by MKE. Droppable munitions are obviously mortar bomb derived. All 4 are composite cased pre-formed fragment munitions.

A new group focusing solely on the TF-X has been established within the SSB:

The "National Combat Aircraft Group Presidency" was established under the Presidency of Defense Industries. The newly established Group Presidency will focus solely on the TF-X Project.

It is considered that this change will make significant contributions to the speed of decisions to be taken regarding the TF-X program. On the other hand, other aircraft projects such as HÜRJET and HÜRKUŞ will be carried out by the Aircraft Department as before. Within the "TF-X Department", there are staff from the Air Force Command with the rank of Brigadier General.

I understand that it's still early days, but are there any indications emerging yet as to the effects of the recent tragic earthquake on Turkey's military development programs? Are budgets likely to be reallocated to support civil reconstruction?
