If you do not have data that those projectiles which broke the Theodosian Walls were thrown for 1.497km (or so), and weighed 498.9kg (or so), then those "500 kilograms" are "1000 pounds", and "1.5 kilometres" are "1 mile" - because "500 kilograms" and "1.5 kilometres" clearly look like approximations
There are no valid sources talking about 1500 imaginary Serbian Cavalry helping in the battle. Why has it still not been removed? Even if there were Serbs taking part in the battle they were taking part as Ottoman Janissaries.
What an exaggeration. How did Mehmed have such numbers? There weren't even such numbers in janissary corps' peak. Can someone find proper sources? Looks like such a mess. Beshogur (talk) 14:44, 24 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]
All household(kapıkulu) soldiers of Ottomans in 1453 is estimated at roughly 12.000 only half being Janissaries. All modern estimated also suggest at best 60-80.000 troops that Sultan was able to field in 1453. Mehmed himself operated during his many campaings at best 50 to 80 thousand troops lesser in minor operations. So you are right numbers need an update. 149.140.236.68 (talk) 13:19, 3 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
