TR Attack & Utility Helicopter Programs

Has to be.

 

[Zafer]

Is that thing (in the red circle) for rescue missions, something like a hook mechanism?

It is the crane to lover and hoist payloads.

 

[Anmdt]

But then will there be again design change of helicopter after TS-3000 is developed?

Design change is daily activity of an engineer in Turkish Defense Industry, so anyway, yes.

ATAK-2 is going to need hefty IR suppressors to cool down the heat generated by the Ukrainian engines, we will likely see a cooling system developed similar to the one used on Mi-28.

I love how sleek it looks here and those 16 missiles.

AW119 has a single engine. No details on the smaller variant of T625 but will be something like the AW119 or the venerable AW109.

How much is percentange of chance that Atak 2 even if is direct hit by stinger igla or others still can survive and land safely ??

I am not sure even if a CH-47 or CH-53 could survive a direct hit by MANPAD.
Let alone Atak-2 or apache class helicopters.

Good news is DIRCM will be introduce on Atak-2. Which should protect the helicopter against IR missiles.

Defense industry does not remain stagnant in Turkey. Let's see what else is to come.

ATAK-2 casually sticking out like a sore thumb.

 

[Afif]

Good to know TAI is socially modernizing.

That is a plus-size 'model' right there.

Sorry if I'm a little gun illiterate, but are those G3s? Edit: maybe HK G41s?

If you look closely they don't have barrels so probably not real guns at all just training wood guns I would assume. Also this is an elite unit they don't really use old guns like G3 they have HK new platforms like 416 and G28 for real combat use.

In the future, and to a large extent already in the present, the Turkish army will rely on domestic weapons, for example, the MPT76. If HK is used, it is caused under pressure from NATO - but that too will come to an end, God willing.

"Profesyonellere MPT, acemilere G3

Hangi birliklerde ağırlıklı hangi tip piyade tüfekleri kullanılıyor?

MPT gibi modern ve etkili silahlar ise birincil kademedeki profesyonel birliklerde dağıtımdadır. G3 ise ikincil kademedeki eğitim birlikleri gibi birliklerde kullanılır, eline muhtemelen ilk defa silah alan ere maliyet-etkin çözüm olarak bu silah verilir. Yani envanterdeki her piyade tüfeği aslında TSK'nın görev icra ettiği her bölgede bulunur."

"MPT for professionals, G3 for beginners

Which types of infantry rifles are predominantly used in which units?

Modern and effective weapons such as the MPT are deployed in primary-level professional units. The G3, on the other hand, is used in the secondary echelon units, such as training units, and this weapon is probably given as a cost-effective solution to the soldier who receives a weapon for the first time. In other words, every infantry rifle in the inventory is actually available in every region where the TAF operates."
