Anka and Kaan?F-16, Kızılelma, Hürjet, Akıncı, Anka-3, Kaan.
Sekizaltmış MS23 jammer has 100watt capacity with 10 db parasite,I hope seymen has more than that.I read some countermeasures can eliminate about 20 db.I think when they narrowed to only GPS signals, or they can use GaN based aesa antennas,they can reach 30 db.That is the GPS more common used one.Although jamming location can easly detected,spoofing are not.As I learned from sekizaltmış stand from idef2025,Turkish navy purchased GPS jamming for their ships or critical infrastrucure but from other firm,meteksan I guess.
SEYMEN GPS/GNSS Jammer.
Apprently Murad-100 AESA radar has been implemented to 6 platforms and they are "very satisifed" with its performance so far. I wonder what could these 6 platofroms be:
1 - F16 Özgür 2
2 - Akıncı
3 - Testbed
4 - Kızılelma(?)
5 - Anka-3(?)
6 - Hürjet(?)
"Demiroğlu also gave an important detail regarding the tests of avionics being developed for KAAN. He stated that a flying laboratory based on the Bombardier Global 6000 business jet has been supporting the tests for KAAN’s AESA radar." - From TurDef: https://turdef.com/article/mehmet-demiroglu-gives-updates-on-the-kaan-fighter-s-testsIn this case, I would put Kaan instead of testbed in the list of 6. We know two prototypes are in the system integration phase.
Btw, do we even have any testbed aircraft?

Does Anka even need Murad as it main purpose is going to be deep strikeI missed that news piece, thanks.
Further in this case; if one of the six is Kaan, which of the 3 with question marks you think would be left out? My guess goes with Anka-3.

Calling 1500 kg "High payload capacity" is really pushing the limits of reality.Brochure TAI shared couple days ago says Air-to-Ground and Air-to-Air configurations. It will also serve as a loyal wingman to Kaan in MUM-T concept so it should have a radar. And I doubt it will be anyting else than Murad

I mean compared to a TB2... This bad boy can carry 60 MAM-Ls!Calling 1500 kg "High payload capacity" is really pushing the limits of reality.
