Fulmar 500A early warning radar for marine heli or/and maritime patrol aircrafts,if 500 means 5000 T/R than its more powerful than the Cenk S radar which has 4000 T/R modules.

More like 500 T/R modules probably.

Aselsan's new taxonomy does not indicate T/R count or range, or in overall any quantative performance information. It is merely a class information.

You are right. I got that. I was giving an estimate based Leonardo's Osprey's T/R M counts. Which is much smaller.

The Turkish engineers fit much more into one box:
• The "capacitor charging power supply" used in ASELSAN's ENGEREK Laser Target Marker product, which had difficulties in procuring from abroad, is now produced within the Turkish defense industry.
• The performance of the indigenous device, which is critical for ENGEREK to laser mark and eliminate threats, increased by 50 percent compared to the equivalent product, and a cost advantage of nearly 60 percent was achieved.
• it will be integrated into different platforms by turning it into a shelf product.
• Different usage concepts will be created

Its a surprise for me

The moments when aselBUOY 100P, the sonobuoy system developed by Aselsan to detect submarines, was released from the plane into the water.

From İbrahim Sünnetçi's interview with Aselsan CEO Akyol:

"While flights continue with the MURAD AESA Nose Radar, production is also ongoing. We have already started their production. So there are only optimization issues from now on. And all the important functions have been implemented. Although it depends on the comments and experiences of the end user, we think that MURAD can be operational on fighter jets after 2 years."

"This year we launched the YILDIRIM-100 DIRCM product. It entered NATO trials. For the first time, Turkey participated in NATO trials with its own product in the field of Electronic Warfare Self Protection System. When I say real firing, I mean that there are real demo firings, missiles are fired at NATO(exercises). Only countries that can do DIRCM can participate."

"The ASELFLIR-500 was exported to a fourth country last week. We are only in the third month."

"ASELPOD Targeting Pod was exported to three countries, Pakistan, Nigeria and Iraq. ASELPOD II is currently being worked on."

"For GÖKTÜRK III (Earth Observation Satellite), we will be delivering not only the SAR antenna, but also the complete SAR Payload... We are also making a space-launched version of SAR in different modes and equipped with advanced image processing algorithms. Of course, there is a complete change of discipline that comes with going into space. But in the end, we built SARPER. Now we are exhibiting the SAR pod. We have this technology. Our next goal is to carry this to the space environment and make it suitable for the satellite in terms of scale..."

İris-300 for Kaan. (Not so) patiently waiting for that one

Is there anyone who knows difference between uv based and infrared based missile warning systems.Aselsan have got uv based MWS for heli,but they prefer IR based systems for aircrafts.If we have yıldırım DIRCM,elektronik war suite supported with machine learning and towed decoy,our F16s one of the most protected in the world.

Northrop Finishes Round of Flight Tests on New Multirole Sensor

Northrop Grumman has completed initial flight tests with its new EMRIS multi-mode sensor system applicable to crewed and uncrewed platforms.

That is something Aselsan could aim for.

What is this though?

 

[boredaf]

What is this though?

Open architecture multi purpose AESA radar from what I gather. It can be easily scaled for different aircraft, easier and cheaper to mass produce and its software can easily be upgraded. More importantly, it is a radar, EW system and communication system rolled into one. At least that's what Northrop claims. Someone with more technical knowledge could explain it better.

Your normal modern AESA then

 

[boredaf]

As I said, someone with more technical knowledge can explain it better than me, its just what I read. There is probably more to it than what I read as it is a new project. Oh, its software can be upgraded even if the plane is flying at the time as well iirc.

 

[Sanchez]

I think NG's main selling point for it apart from the corporate speak is the modularity of the design and its claimed low cost of build.

 

[Heartbang]

That might be the only new feature in this thing, as far as AESA radars concerned.

The form factor in the picture leads me to believe that this could be used for peripheral radar coverage. Similar to our KAAN's 360 degree radar arrays.

As @Sanchez said, I think it being modular and (supposedly) more cost effective to build is its biggest selling point.
