[edit] Warning

Somebody really made a mess of the main equipment section and it looks like a deliberate action. The article is unfortunately not accurate anymore and I will not bother to edit/correct it since I have a feeling that it will be botched again.

[edit] Main Equipment

This section has been copied from my site (http://warriorsoul.4t.com) without permission. In order to adopt a more constructive way of action than removing the whole table, I simply added a link to my site in the "Sources" section. I am a researcher on the defence industries and accurately keep track of the changes in the inventory. I spend a lot of time and effort on updating the information provided and I am happy to see that a growing number of people are making use of it. However, I would highly appreciate it if people who use the information elsewhere would at least provide a link to my web site as the source. Should you wish to contact me personally, kindly follow the "Contact" link in my site.

Thank you.

[edit] History

So folks, I am updating this article. Aquilion 18:45, 9 October 2005 (UTC)

The history section is complete. Aquilion 17:42, 10 October 2005 (UTC)

I find the modern translations of Ottoman terms a bit irritating. Why include the translation of "Ministry of War" when the given term is not what the Ottomans used (the correct term is "Harbiye Nezareti")?

[edit] F-5 2000 (under delivery) ??

This article says 46 "F-5 2000 (under delivery)". It appears to mean these are new aircraft that are being delivered now. However, the F-5 Freedom Fighter article says that the aircraft has been out of production since the 1970's. Are these refurbished/upgraded aircraft from another country? --rogerd 03:25, 29 September 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Haven't Turkish Air Force rank insigna?

[edit] WPMILHIST Assessment

This article could definitely benefit from in-line citations for the prose content (i.e. the "main section" above the listing of individual aircraft). Nice work on the infobox, btw, and a very nice photo! LordAmeth 14:47, 8 February 2007 (UTC)
