Drill & Defense is an independent digital platform that explores the intersection of firearms, defense, and energy—industries that shape our world through innovation, conflict, and policy.
Founded with a clear vision to bridge the gap between the defense industry and informed civilians, we offer in-depth content for professionals, collectors, analysts, and enthusiasts worldwide. Our mission is to deliver fact-driven, unbiased information that matters.
🔹 Who We Are
We are not a corporate newsroom. We are a small, agile team led by defense and firearms specialist Buğrahan Demir, based in Türkiye, working globally. With experience in weapons trade, international certifications, and cross-cultural communication, we aim to offer sharp insight from both local and international perspectives.
Each article is crafted with care, backed by research, and tailored to a readership that values truth over trends.
🔹 What We Cover
Our editorial focus includes:
Firearms & Ammunition: Detailed breakdowns, historic and modern weaponry, technical specs, and manufacturing insights.
Defense Industry News: Contract updates, military developments, partnerships, and geopolitical consequences.
Energy & Strategy: Oil, gas, and how energy influences global defense postures.
Regulations & Laws: ITAR, NFA, GCA, dual-use exports, and compliance across borders.
Expert Interviews & Field Reports: First-hand insights from specialists and industry insiders.
We do not merely repost press releases. We analyze, comment, and connect the dots others miss.
🔹 Our Vision
Drill & Defense exists to provide clarity in a cluttered space.
We believe defense journalism doesn’t have to be dull, shallow, or politically polarized. We believe people deserve a platform that treats arms and strategy with the intellectual weight and historical context they require.Whether you’re a firearms collector, energy consultant, private security contractor, or just a curious reader—our content is created for minds that question and care.
