And 120C7 is oldNo it does not! Even aim120 c7 varrient has one way data link. Only meteor, aim120d and pl15 believed to have two way data link in 2022!
Gökdoğan and Bozdoğan are newer than C7

Yeah! But there is still some problem with liquid/gel fuel ramjet A2A, which is speed and acceleration. Usually liquid fuel has the advantage of more range and endurance while SFDR like meteor has better acceleration and speed! Now, if tubitak can make gokhan's cruising speed up to 3 mach and max speed up to 4 mach that's very good! However, my assessment is, the best option for TAF to have a GOKDOGAN ER with duel pulse motor capable of reaching 200 km range and equipped with ka band aesa seeker like aam 4b or hybrid seeker like aim260. That would be better than gokhan or meteor type missile. However, making a 'solid fuel only' missile without any ram engine capable of reaching 200 km effectively is much more harder technologically than a ramjet A2A missile!This was discussed before. Both Gurcan Okumus of Tubitak Sage and Ismail Demir stated that Gökhan is going to be with liquid fuelled ramjet engines. But there is a small trick here; The liquid fuel used will probably be like the liquid fuel used in Brahmos missiles. That is gel based liquid fuels. This imparts solid fuel like storage and usage characteristics to the fuel. So none of the problems associated with conventional liquid fuels.
Also throttle control with liquid/gel based fuels is much easier than solid fuelled ramjets.
As far as I know defence turkey magazine talked about only one way data link for gokdogan!And 120C7 is old

From what I have foundAs far as I know defence turkey magazine talked about only one way data link for gokdogan!
According to our knowledgeable military friends on the subject, it is said that the final version of the MAM-L has now turned into a completely different project after the intense feedback on the MAM-L and its derivatives. There are incomparable differences between them.
Any stats you can share with us?According to our knowledgeable military friends on the subject, it is said that the final version of the MAM-L has now turned into a completely different project after the intense feedback on the MAM-L and its derivatives.

These are just the little details mentioned in between. No details unfortunately. I share whatever comes my way.Any stats you can share with us?
I don't know the specifics. But my guess is that the swarm version will communicate with each other much like swarming drones. This way they can approach the target/s as a horde. Could be useful for making enemy air defences go crazy. I'm assuming that the swarming capability will be added to other versions too.does anyone have any idea on how Çakır's Swarm payload version works? i cant wrap my head around on the concept of dedicated swarm missile.
if you could explain the EW version that would be also nice.
High chance that it will be fire and forget. The biggest problem with MAM-L is you can only use one at a time.These are just the little details mentioned in between. No details unfortunately. I share whatever comes my way.
Who wouldn't want toYou all think they will just unveil- show siper test for 100th anniversary of the great offensive and victory day? Nah man, i think we will see some 'cool' stuff tomorrow.

Though I have my doubts when looking at the picture, looks like it has the same laser seeker.

I'm hoping to see a variant with an IIR seeker.Doesn't require Terminal guidance for fire and forget, just needs GNS/INS/IMU and a mission computer that can handle programming co-ordinates. Though, this has already been achieved with the 'optional' navigation package for MAM-L.
We can simply integrate UMTAS-IIR in this case, its range is already 15+ km, UAV launched version might even reach 25+ km if a gliding - boosting optimization done.I'm hoping to see a variant with an IIR seeker.
