That's their SLV programme, not IRBM one.Wonder who's collaborating with them for this development ? It makes Turkey the 3rd Islamic country to possess IRBMs after Paxtan & Iran .
While both Paxtan & Iran got their tech from PRC & DPRK which should tell you a tale on the quality of their technology , I wouldn't put Turkey in the same category for they've something which the other 2 lack namely - depth of industry & access to western systems.
Not a good development from our PoV.
55000 roaches.
Yes I know but once you've developed such space technology it's not a great leap into missile tech much like we transitioned from SLV to Agni.That's their SLV programme, not IRBM one.
Cute of you to think they're reaching the low earth orbit at allYes I know but once you've developed such space technology it's not a great leap into missile tech much like we transitioned from SLV to Agni.
I wouldn't take them lightly if I were you . Some of their achievements are vapourware not all of them. A good many of their projects are really commendable for what they've achieved.Cute of you to think they're reaching the low earth orbit at all
In space, you can't rely on chamchagiri like ToTs or importing foreign workers. It's a high-investment, high lead-time field that demands decades of experience and a well-established ecosystem. Without genuine, rigorous R&D, it’s difficult to establish a significant presence. Frankly, mentioning RoK and Turkey in the same sentence does a disservice to the former.I wouldn't take them lightly if I were you . Some of their achievements are vapourware not all of them. A good many of their projects are really commendable for what they've achieved.
Besides the scope of their ambitions are breath taking. Even if they achieve half of it , in my book it's a huge deal. Both RoK & Turkiye are coming out with very good products.
