The anomaly of fanatic Turkish social media influencers is worth analyzing. They are using the KF-21 prototype platform, one of thousands of Korean weapons, Far east, to deceive hapless patriots. They don't even know how IP and development progress are progressing. In terms of military power, defense investment, R&D, heavy industry, company size, and risk&schedule management, Korea and Turkey are not even comparable. Beyond the patriotic advertising of KAAN by strange influencers, the Altay tank, which began low-rate production in 2025, was backed by extensive support from the Korean gov, agencies, and companies. This support, surprisingly, spanned about 15 years and encompassed not only tank technology but also other technologies. However, Koreans highly value this cooperation with Turkey. The IP you use, the cell phones and cars you use, are all created through collaborations between multinational corporations. The excessive worship of KAAN is particularly unusual. KAAN is the result of foreign companies' efforts, and like Altay, it continues to be delayed due to various issues. Even more surprising is that, in the midst of all this, Turkey is planning to buy European jets and is also struggling to purchase the F-35. (Which is very interesting) Meanwhile, S.Korea is already producing the KF-21 Blk-I, not a prototype, and unlike Turkey, it operates a decent number of F-35As. Furthermore, a variety of subsonic, supersonic, and hypersonic missiles are being developed for the KF-21. S.Korea plans to deploy the KF-21, along with the F-15K and F-35A, as a long-range missile shuttle and as the central node for the MUM-T. The KF-21 Blk-I and II programs, designed to replace aging fighter jets, have already been successful. The aircraft itself, avionics, and core technologies were developed independently for decades. The remaining minor components were imported to strengthen national defense, thanks to the country's strong relations with others. The KAAN will be developed in 'Block' form, like the 4.5 generation KF-21, rather than in the 5th generation. The KAAN will proceed more slowly than expected and will consume more taxpayer money. Excluding factors like company size, R&D, heavy industry, military size, and sales performance, if we compare the capabilities of the ROK Air Force, Navy, Army, Strategic Missile Command with those of Turkey, Turkish social media patriots become even more pitiful. Folks, being fanatic patriotic on social media, won't improve your life. I have many Turkish followers on X Platform who are open to analysis. However, we expect fanatics will focus on slandering a single combat platform from a country far away, rather than on their own internal problems, without providing accurate background, development process, procurement, government, agencies, corporate capabilities, time requirements, R&D investment, or production information. If you 'truly' want to compare Korea and Turkey, you should abandon social media patriotism and try to compare Turkey's heavy industry, R&D, military size (fixed demand), corporate size, and sales performance to reach about 40% of Korea's. The truth is always close, but facing it is difficult. As you may have guessed, I respect race, ideology, politics, religion, gender, and age. In that sense, writing something like this is truly frustrating. I didn't want to post this, but I had to at the request of people from various countries. I interact personally with experts and defense industry officials and attend seminars and exhibitions. How many fanatics would actually do that? All other priorities are secondary to victory.
