Are there forests in Turkey?

[The leader of the Redskins]

It is immediately clear that you did not rest in Turkish resorts))) There are. But not like in our view. Smaller.

[Hunter 2]

There are forests! They even carry out paid hunting for wild boars! Only their boars ... it hurts too small!
Erdogan localizes production in the country ... the way is right, less dependence on the US and NATO.

[Wolf]

How can a boar be normal in a Muslim country?

[Oquzyurd]

Large forests along the Black Sea coast and the Turkish Caucasus; smaller trees in the southern part of the country

Turkey is big, it has not only forests.
The forest cover of the country is about 25%. - Source: Forests of Turkey

[Altai72]

There are beautiful forests. Approximately 25% of the territory.
https://www.polnaja-jenciklopedija.ru/geografiya/lesa-turtsii.html

[Oquzyurd]

28% of the territory of Turkey is covered by forests. The territory of Turkey is 780 thousand sq. Km.

[The leader of the Redskins]

And the Turks do not catch crows ... The Italians have bought the "Agusta" and finish it, the Americans have Black Hawk .... It is clear that the assembly is semi-screwdriver, but ...

[Free wind]

In forestry, this will not hurt us, with rocket-cannon armament, to shoot quick-eyed lumberjacks in the Far East and Siberia.

[vadsonen]

Maybe it's better than the bureaucrats who allowed it, or the security officials who protect it?

[Alien From]

It would be nice for our people to make such a deal, it was written earlier in VO that nobody wants to take our helicopters (K-52).

[Corn]

Sell ​​a license to produce the latest ka52? Yes, you are crazy!
They don’t want to buy not just the Ka52, but its ship modification.
The main problem of this helicopter in the absence of sane weapons, which is why you have to iron the enemy from a low-flying flight, substituting everything that can shoot into the air.

[Alien From]

Katran of course! Yes, we do not have missiles yet "fired - forgot". But work is underway.

[GibSoN]

Like hawks like missiles are used as consumables, by default? Or is the hawk's value precisely in that it can fire such missiles? Your idea is not very clear ...

[Alien From]

The thought is that the hellfires "fire-forget", striped friends have long been using it, of course not for the aborigines, it's expensive after all.

[aries2200]

It's time to share technology with Russian partners

[prior]

In Russia, Chinese cars are assembled from car kits; in Turkey, American helicopters.
Whoever needs it is collected.

[Corn]

Bell 407 and AW139 are also produced / assembled in Russia, also with partial localization.

[Altai72]

60% of engine parts are Turkish.

[Wolf]

Most importantly, Turkey got to the production of an aircraft engine!

[Saboteur Holuy]

I wonder if a war breaks out between Turkey and Iran, who has a chance of winning?

[Prisoner]

Apparently the United States.

[Altai72]

If you take into account the fact that about 40 million ethnic Turks live in Iran, then guess for yourself))

[Wolf]

And in Turkey there are 10 million Kurds.

[Oquzyurd]

Most Turkish Kurds are loyal to their state and together with the Turks created the Republic of Turkey. Even today, every fifth Kurdish nationality in the Turkish army, Turkey had a Kurdish president, the late Turgut Ozal. Today, the ruling party has 50 Kurdish deputies.

[VyacheSeymour]

And you forgot to mention the Ataturk receiver, Ismet Inenu.

[Prisoner]

EPRST, let’s remember Adam and Eve.

[VyacheSeymour]

Not .- it's too much, - a bit later.

Kurds - the first people on Earth and the first language spoken - Kurdish

Quote: Oquzyurd

Are there Kurds there? And in general, such a nation is recognized by the Turkish state?
It seems that the Turks did not make such a mistake with the recognition of Ukrainians and so on.

[Oquzyurd]

Yes there are Kurds, and not a few. They admit that they have schools, even a channel on the central television of TRT Kurdi.https: //www.youtube.com/watch? V = q5lMsc3pqVg

[VyacheSeymour]

Under the so-called Islamist Erdogan (after concluding a deal with Ocalan), a lot has changed for the Kurds.
