Lets list in my opinion the worst decisions taken or nearly taken by largest navies around the world. #εpsilon Image
The #USNavy #Zumwaltclass destroyers were supposed to have #AGS capable of firing ultra long range 155mm shells, have no shells as they were canceled. Now, to re-add the X-factor the #USN is replacing AGS guns with VLS for upto 12 hypersonic missiles. Costing a lot of $$$$$$$$$s Image
Once the greatest #Navy on Earth, decided it was too great and powerful to have a ship mounted AShM. The #Brits decided #RoyalNavy could retire its #Harpoons without procuring a replacement anytime soon. Luckily , it didnt happen. This is why I feel #UK will cause #AUKUS to fail? Image

The tale of two four half sisters, they should have #F35B but none have. The #Spanish Juan Carlos 1 class LHD was designed to be like the USMC Essex class LHDs which can launch an amphibious assault both from their well decks and their flight decks. ImageImage
They have a ski-jump which #Spanish AV-8B #Harrier use to fly off its deck, the #Australians and #Turks both decided to keep the ski-jump. #Australians never bought #F35B and #Turks were removed from the #F35 program altogether. Image
The #Turks plan on flying navalised Bayraktar drones off their decks while the #Australians have scrapped the idea of fixed wing aviation altogether. Maybe #AUKUS will motivate it to reconsider. ImageImage

Looks like my #IndianNavy missile test thread blew up so, a follow on thread on its sister force #IndianAirForce . The collective west, coming out of the Cold War expected the #IAF to be a more Soviet aligned force. #Su30MKI #F35B #TROPEX #εpsilon #MiG21 #MiG21Bison #Mirage2000 Image
The #IAF however has the unique perspective of operating the top western and the top #Russian of alternate &/or every generation egs Hawker Hunter (credits on pic), #MiG21, #MiG29, #Su30MKI, #Mirage2000 #Harrier ImageImage
Each fighter brings in with it, performance numbers but also tactics and maintenance regimen and India can tap into #Russian or #British ideas and pick and choose what works the best. Image

1) #TCGAnadolu, İspanyol Juan Carlos-1 sınıfı amfibi taarruz gemisinin bir varyantı. Kategorik olarak 4 görevi var: Güç projeksiyonu, ski-jump modifikasyonu ile bir mini uçak gemisi olarak kullanılması (aircraft carrier substitute) –>
@sinanulgen1 @EdamOrg
2) amfibi harekatlar ve insani yardım & doğal afet sonrası müdahale vb gibi humanitarian görevler... Üzerinde #F35B gibi STOVL bir airwing olmadan, bu dört kategorik görevden üçünü tabiatıyla yerine getirebilir.
3) Nitekim, Juan Carlos sınıfı gemilerin bir başka kullanıcısı Avustralya. Canberra sınıfı olarak tanımlanan, HMAS Canberra ve HMAS Adelaide gemilerinden oluşan bir envanter var.

1- #Türk ve #Rus devlet başkanları arasındaki son görüşmeden basına yansıyan detaylar, #S400 teslimatlarına ilişkin bir değişiklik olmayacağı yönündedir. Ayrıca, Rus basını, farklı silah sistemlerinin de gündemde olduğunu belirtmektedir.
2- Şu aşamada kesin bir değerlendirmede bulunmak spekülatif olsa da, tahminlerimiz #Pantsir alçak-orta irtifa hava savunma sistemlerine ilişkin bir alımın #S400'ler için gerekli SAM konfigürasyonunu oluşturmak adına bir sonraki adım olabileceği yönündedir.
3- Nitekim, bilinen modern hava savunma planlama esasları ve #Rusya Federasyonu'nun #S400 konuşlandırma paternleri de Pantsir seçeneğini güçlü kılmaktadır. Açıkçası, bilgi eksikliği ve War Studies (harp çalışmaları) disiplininin henüz istenen seviyede gelişmemiş olmasından ötürü,
