Ok lets compare Turkiye with Germany

Before ERDOGAN 2001
9,6 x Turkiye ( $203 billion ) = 1 x Germany ( $1,96 trillion )

After ERDOGAN 2026
3,3 x Turkiye ( $1,57 trillion ) = 1 x Germany ( $5,32 trillion )

First of all, your entire argument depends on starting at 2001. YThe year right after Turkey had one of the worst financial crises in its history. GDP collapsed, the banking system imploded, and the baseline was artificially low.

So congratulations—if you start from rock bottom, growth looks spectacular. That’s not genius, that’s math.

Now let’s apply your logic consistently which you never do :-:

- Why not compare 2013 vs today?
- Or 2017 vs today?
- Or any period where the currency wasn’t collapsing?
:-: Because suddenly your “miracle ratios” don’t look so magical anymore.

Second, you’re using nominal USD GDP like it’s some absolute truth. That number:

Goes up when global liquidity is high
Goes down when your currency loses value
Has very little to do with real domestic strength on its own

So when the lira weakens, your “success story” literally shrinks on paper.

Third, Germany didn’t:
- Experience hyper volatility in currency
- Experiment with “interest rates cause inflation” theory
- Burn through investor confidence every few years

And despite all that, you’re celebrating “closing the gap” while:
- Inflation hits ordinary people
- Purchasing power declines
-Savings shift to foreign currencies

999 out of my 1000 posts are to praise Turkish military technologies , Turkish People and Turkish history
What about you ? You are playing politics only as a fanatic

if members like you come along and try to belittle and discredit ERDOGAN's 23 years of great effort and support, of course I will defend ERDOGAN

He is President of the Turkish People and Republic of Turkiye
ERDOGAN is on the Turkish People side

I didn't belittle anyone.

I said.

Decisions.... it's the duty of the politicians. Like, i said they don't do anything except signing a paper.

If you are going to thank anybody, thank to Turkish people. Not a politician for doing his job.

You and your friend with American flags went berserk. Shows, who is the fanatic here.

- Why not compare 2013 vs today?

First all of them attack Turkiye and then blame ERDOGAN

Between 2003 and 2013, ERDOGAN did excellent work in Türkiye
He revived the economy.
He brought inflation down to single digits. ( 7,4% )
He saved $300 billion of our money from the international interest lobby by lowering interest rates to their lowest levels in history. ( 4,5% )

Whenever in 2013 , ERDOGAN announced mega projects ( Nuclear Power Plant , new ISTANBUL Airport , Canal ISTANBUL , Defense Industry , etc ) USA and Israel immediately pressed the button and systematically launched 5-year attacks

FETO's judicial and military coup attempts
Gezi Park protests
PKK's major uprisings in 22 regions
and American attack on the Turkish economy

-------------------------------------------------------------------------

There are no traitors or external attacks in Germany either
still , ERDOGAN increased the Turkish economy three times more than Germany's

With the recent talk of IRST being used instead of radar, might be worth pointing out this glaring element with the F-35 engine.

Lockheed has been trying to fix this issue with a new engine, but we don't know when that comes.

Turkish Air Force is increasing its ammunition stockpile


The LGK-82 kit is designed for high-precision strikes against fixed and moving targets with reduced collateral damage.

The KIZILELMA unmanned stealth Fighter Jet, in a test conducted with the ASELSAN KARAT Infrared Search and Tracking (IRST) System, detected a passenger Plane "110 km away ".

This detection, achieved without any RF transmission, means "seeing without being seen"...

Thanks to KARAT IRST , KIZILELMA can passively detect stealth targets like the F-35, approach them silently, and guide missiles. This is a major advantage in modern air warfare ..... (hunting without being seen, by turning off its AESA Radar).

This chart is inaccurate.
RBE2 AA has a detection range of 200km against 5m² target from official brochure. That puts its detection range against 1m² in excess of 110km.

The analysis here is that the S-400s can hit Greek AEWCs and give TURAF an advantage in network centric warfare

Boeing E-7T AEWC to detect the RAFALE from 350 km away and to fire METEOR Missiles from 150-180 km away while the RAFALE can detect Eurofighter from 110-120 km away

That means Greece doesnt have AWACS killer System
but Turkiye has S400 with 380 km 40N6E Missile for AWACS killer role

Turkish Air Force will gain the same advantage, even without Eurofighters, when we integrate the GOKBORA-GOKHAN ramjet powered air to air Missiles with a range of 185-200 km into the F-16s

Greece does not have a system capable of shooting down our E-7T AEWCs

Greece is not a country that can compete with Türkiye
even SIPER Block2 air defense Missile can reach range of 250+ km with booster .... and this was officially stated by TUBITAK-SAGE


Also , once we acquire KIZILELMA and ANKA-3 unmanned stealth Fighter Jets for our inventory, RAFALE and F-16V will stand no chance in BVR combat

Therefore , I always saying that Greeks are lunatic People who called the Eurofighter as cold war dinosaur

Rafale: First flight 1986
Eurofighter: First flight 1994

RAFALE and Eurofighter are same era 4,5 gen Fighters but Eurofighter has better avionics and air to air combat capability with superior high altitude performance, climb rate, acceleration and energy retention make it excellent for high-speed dashes pure air superiority


and there will be so numerous ... 24 RAFALE vs 44 Eurofighters
also Turkiye will use its own Missiles on Eurofighters including
-- GOKBORA and GOKHAN ramjet powered air to air Missiles
-- SOM and ATMACA-UM Cruise Missiles
-- AKBABA anti-radiation Missile
-- 300-ER air launched Ballistic Misille
